Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) holds global importance due to its culinary versatility and nutritional value. This study evaluated the effect of different commercial bioformulations on the growth promotion of tomato seedlings. The formulations used were based on i) Trichoderma asperellum strain CCT 2165; ii) Paecilomyces lilacinus; iii) a Microbial consortium composed of Lactobacillus spp. and actinomycetes; iv) non inoculated plants. Seedlings were grown for 25 days in polystyrene trays with 128 cells, using Carolina Soil® substrate. Inoculation was performed prior to sowing, following the furrow application dosage recommended by the manufacturers. The following parameters were evaluated: emergence speed index (ESI), emergence rate, seedling height, collar diameter, fresh and dry mass of shoot and root, total dry mass, and Dickson Quality Index (DQI). The experiment was laid out in a randomized block design (RBD), comprising 4 treatments (inoculations) and 10 replicates per treatment. P. lilacinus and the microbial consortium yielded the highest EVI values, 22.84 and 23.02 emerged plants day-1, and emergence rates of 100% and 98.75%, respectively. P. lilacinus provided the best seedling development and a DQI of 0.002. In the principal component analysis (PCA), which explained 78.64% of the total variation, the dominance of P. lilacinus across variables was evident. However, the dendrogram revealed a similarity in the effects caused by the microbial consortium and P. lilacinus. It is concluded that the use of P. lilacinus is the most recommended treatment; albeit the application of other microorganisms also improves seedling growth.
