Plant seed assemblies comprising bacterial/fungal antagonists

A composition of matter comprising:

• a plant seed inoculated with a combination selected from the group consisting of:
• a Trichoderma virens antagonist selected from the group consisting of isolate G1-21 and mutants thereof and a Bacillus amyloliquefaciens antagonist selected from the group consisting of strain FZB24 and mutants thereof;
• a Trichoderma virens antagonist selected from the group consisting of isolate ATCC 58678 and mutants thereof and a Bacillus amyloliquefaciens antagonist selected from the group consisting of strain FZB24 and mutants thereof;
• and
• a Trichoderma virens antagonist selected from the group consisting of isolate ATCC 58678 and mutants thereof and a Bacillus amyloliquefaciens antagonist selected from the group consisting of strain FZB24 and mutants thereof;
• wherein said combination increases the yield of the plant.

A composition made by combining effective amounts of:

• a spore-forming fungal antagonist selected from the group of an isolate of Trichoderma virens and mutants thereof;
• and
• a spore-forming bacterial antagonist selected from the group of a strain of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens and mutants thereof;
• wherein the spore-forming fungal antagonist does not produce a substance that substantially inhibits the growth of the spore-forming bacterial antagonist and the spore-forming bacterial antagonist does not produce a substance that substantially inhibits the growth of the spore-forming fungal antagonist;
• and
• wherein the composition is effective at increasing the yield of a plant grown from a seed to which the composition has been applied.
