In this study, the effects of different doses of fungicide applications on some physiological parameters were examined in mycorrhiza applied and non-applied mycorrhiza tomato plants. A pesticide was applied at different doses which were, namely, recommend (R), half of recommend (R/2), and two-fold recommend (R×2). The content of proline, chlorophyll and carotenoid analysis were conducted in the plant samples. Proline values were found low in mycorrhizal than non-mycorrhizal plants in all pesticide doses (P
