The tomato ( L.) is consumed globally as a fresh vegetable due to its high nutritional value and antioxidant properties. However, soil-borne diseases can severely limit tomato production. These diseases, such as bacterial wilt (BW), Fusarium wilt (FW), Verticillium wilt (VW), and root-knot nematodes (RKN), can significantly reduce the yield and quality of tomatoes. Using agrochemicals to combat these diseases can lead to chemical residues, pesticide resistance, and environmental pollution. Unfortunately, resistant varieties are not yet available. Therefore, we must find alternative strategies to protect tomatoes from these soil-borne diseases. One of the most promising solutions is harnessing microbial communities that can suppress disease and promote plant growth and immunity. Recent omics technologies and next-generation sequencing advances can help us develop microbiome-based strategies to mitigate tomato soil-borne diseases. This review emphasizes the importance of interdisciplinary approaches to understanding the utilization of beneficial microbiomes to mitigate soil-borne diseases and improve crop productivity.
番茄（L.）因其高营养价值和抗氧化特性而作为新鲜蔬菜在全球范围内被食用。然而，土传病害会严重限制番茄产量。这些病害，如青枯病（BW）、枯萎病（FW）、黄萎病（VW）和根结线虫（RKN），会显著降低番茄的产量和品质。使用农用化学品防治这些病害会导致化学残留、抗药性和环境污染。不幸的是，目前还没有抗性品种。因此，我们必须找到替代策略来保护番茄免受这些土传病害的侵害。最有前景的解决方案之一是利用能够抑制病害并促进植物生长和免疫的微生物群落。最近的组学技术和下一代测序进展可以帮助我们制定基于微生物组的策略来减轻番茄土传病害。本综述强调了跨学科方法对于理解利用有益微生物组减轻土传病害和提高作物生产力的重要性。
