This study evaluated the effects of Rhizoctonia solani (RsPOB), Fusarium oxysporum (FoBST 3), Verticillium dahliae (OMV5), and Phytophthora sp. (PMT9) on tomato plants, individually and in combinations. Significant findings revealed a synergistic effect with severe disease when RsPOB and FoBST 3 were combined. In contrast, antagonistic interactions between Rhizoctonia solani and Phytophthora sp. resulted in the highest root length (13 cm) and lowest stunting index (8%). Host-released exudates played a role in pathogen proliferation. Notably, the combination of all four pathogens caused the shortest root length (7.3 cm), indicating strong negative interactions. The study underscores the complex relationships among soil-borne pathogens, highlighting the importance of understanding these interactions for effective disease management in agriculture
