Symptoms in tomato vary based on the tomato variety and may be mild to severe. [31] Foliar symptoms include mild to severe mosaic, narrowing and discolouration. Classic symptoms are the brown and wrinkled (rugose) patches that form on infected fruits, though fruits may also be misshapen or turn yellow and are often unmarketable due to symptoms ...
Buckeye rot of tomato is caused by three species of pathogens in the genus Phytophthora: P. nicotianae var. parasitica, P. capsici, and P. drechsleri. [1] It is an oomycete that thrives in warm, wet conditions and lives in the soil. [ 2 ]
Septoria lycopersici infects the tomato leaves via the stomata and also by direct penetration of epidermal cells. [3] Symptoms generally include circular or angular lesions most commonly found on the older, lower leaves of the plant. [1] The lesions are generally 2–5 mm in diameter and have a greyish center with brown margins.
Treatments that are commonly used for this disease include insecticides, hybrid seeds, and growing tomatoes under greenhouse conditions. Developing countries are most affected by this crop disease due to both the climate and the high costs of treatments used in order to control it. [ 1 ]

Cladosporium fulvum is an Ascomycete called Passalora fulva, a non-obligate pathogen that causes the disease on tomatoes known as the tomato leaf mold. [1] P. fulva only attacks tomato plants, especially the foliage, and it is a common disease in greenhouses, but can also occur in the field. [2] The pathogen is likely to grow in humid and cool ...
Tomato bushy stunt virus (TBSV) is a virus of the tombusvirus family. [2] It was first reported in tomatoes in 1935 and primarily affects vegetable crops, though it is not generally considered an economically significant plant pathogen. Depending upon the host, TBSV causes stunting of growth, leaf mottling, and deformed or absent fruit.
