Soybean (Glycine max L. Merrill) is an important leguminous crop contain huge amount of protein and oil. Among the fungal diseases of soybean, collar rot caused by Sclerotium rolfsii and charcoal rot caused by Corynespora cassiicola are the economically important diseases which attack on root, stem and foliate parts of the plants. An experiment was conducted on efficacy of indigenous Trichoderma harzianum, Trichoderma virideand Pseudomonas fluorescens on microbial population in soil, plant growth promoting and disease control potential in soybean and results indicated that the highest impact of Pseudomonas fluorescens was recorded on microbial population in soil which showed 26.61% increase in fungi population and 25.97 % increase in bacteria population followed by T. viride (18.20 and 18.07%) and T. harzianum(7.92 and 7.90%). Minimum mortality (1.97%) was recorded with the application of T10 – Seed treatment with T18 @ 20% followed two foliar sprays followed by T9 – Seed treatment with T18 @ 15% followed two foliar sprays (2.36%). In case target leaf spot minimum incidence (73.54%), PDI (10.93%) was recorded with the application of T14 – Seed treatment with Pseudomonas fluorescens @ 15% followed T15 – Seed treatment with Pseudomonas fluorescens @ 20% followed two foliar sprays (9.81%). Maximum no. of pods per plant (73.30), yield per plot (4.274 kg) and yield per ha (27.40 q) was obtained from treatment T15 – Seed treatment with Pseudomonas fluorescens @ 20% followed two foliar sprays followed by T10 – Seed treatment with T18 @ 20% followed two foliar sprays.
