<br/><br/> The Study Growth and   Yield of Tomato (Cultivar Tabeth 103) applied With<br/>Different Amounts of Vesicular Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (MykoVAM) in an Acidic Soil" was conducted in the Vegetable Production Project of the Cavite State University Indang, Cavite from October 2000 to January 2001. "<br/>The study aimed io evaluate the growth and yield performance of tomatoes applied with different amounts or MykoVAM and to identity the best amount or MykoVAM that is most effective in promoting growth and yield of container grown tomatoes.  Tomatoes  seedlings were inoculated with different amounts of MykoVAM as: 'Tl (5 grams MykoVAM per seedling) 'T2 (7 grams MykoVAM per seedling), T3 (9 gains MykoVAM per seedling) and (uninoculated control). A 100% infection was observed in Ali MykoVAM inoculated tomato planted in an acidic soil. Uninoculated plants (TO had poor vegetative growth. They had low height, less number of leaves small leaf area, and small stem diameter. Likewise, they produced less number or fruits, low yield per plant and short roots which showed their incapacity to absorb more elements in the soil. However, the MykoVAM inoculated plants significant produced taller plants with more bigger leaf area, bigger stem diameter, higher number of fruits per plant, higher yield and longer and heavier roots. The best vegetative growth and higher yield were obtained from the plants inoculated with 7 grams Myko VAM per plant Myko VAM lower than grams produced less growth and yield through better than the control Beyond 7 grams Myko VAM per plant the growth and yield of tomato were adversely affected.
