Resumen

El cultivo de tomate (Solanum lycopersicum) es de gran importancia económica en México; sin embargo, su producción enfrenta limitaciones asociadas al uso intensivo de agroquímicos y a la incidencia de patógenos del suelo. En este contexto, el presente estudio tuvo como objetivo evaluar el efecto del enriquecimiento del lixiviado de vermicompost con Trichoderma viride sobre el crecimiento y desarrollo de plántulas de tomate, como una alternativa sostenible en la agricultura. La metodología consistió en la inoculación del hongo en lixiviado previamente esterilizado y su aplicación en semillas de tomate bajo condiciones controladas. Posteriormente, las plántulas fueron establecidas en invernadero y evaluadas mediante parámetros fisiológicos y de crecimiento, incluyendo contenido de clorofila, peso fresco, peso seco y contenido de nitrógeno. Se compararon tres tratamientos: lixiviado con hongo (LH), lixiviado sin hongo (LS) y un control con agua (SA). Los resultados mostraron que el tratamiento LH presentó valores significativamente superiores en todas las variables evaluadas, destacando un mayor contenido de clorofila (0.7205 µg/mg), mayor biomasa fresca (0.6283 g), mayor peso seco (0.0613 g) y mayor contenido de nitrógeno (1.69%). El tratamiento LS mostró valores intermedios, mientras que el control (SA) presentó los valores más bajos. Estos hallazgos evidencian que la combinación de lixiviado de vermicompost con Trichoderma viride genera un efecto sinérgico que favorece la actividad fotosintética, la absorción de nutrientes y la acumulación de biomasa en plantas de tomate. Se concluye que este bioinsumo representa una alternativa viable para reducir el uso de agroquímicos y promover sistemas agrícolas más sostenibles
