Lisianthus (Eustoma grandiflorum) is an ornamental species used as a potted plant or cut flower, its popularity is due to the diversity of colors, number of flower buds, and shelf life. Nevertheless, during the first phases of development, problems such as foliar chlorosis and root diseases affects most cultivars, causing poor growth, thin stems, and few flowers. The use of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) improved plant growth as these microbes colonize the plant system root. Therefore, in order to provide better conditions for the stem development, the aim of this work was to evaluate the individual and combined effect of Bacillus subtilis (PGPR) and Glomus intraradices (AMF) on the growth and postharvest quality of the stems of lisianthus cv. Mariachi. Then commercial product Alubión-X (Bacillus subtilis (PGPR) and mycorrhizal fungus (Glomus intraradices) were used. The variables evaluated were stem height and diameter, foliar area, leaves number and in postharvest, buds number, open and diameter of flowers and stem dry weight. The results showed a significant effect of the inoculation of G. intraradices on the size (66.92 cm) of the stem, as well as the combination of B. subtilis + G. intraradices (65.51 cm) compared to the control (36.9 cm). The number of buds and open flowers of the stems treated with G. intraradices were 33.35 and 23.9 respectively significantly higher than the control. G. intraradices alone is the best option for applying to lisianthus, when compared to applying with B. Subtilis.
