Tomato Southern Blight
Southern blight (or southern wilt) is a disease of hundreds of plant species, including tomatoes. It is favored by moist conditions and high temperatures. The fungus can survive for years in soil and plant debris. |
Tomato Fusarium Wilt
Fusarium wilt is a warm-weather disease, and infection occurs through wounds in the roots. Disease symptoms include seedling stunting, drooping and downward curling of older leaves and discoloration of the vascular tissue. This is usually noticeable during the period from blossoming to fruit maturation. This pathogen is soilborne and can remain in infested soils for several years. |

Tomato Bacterial Speck
Bacterial speck is favored by cool temperatures and high-moisture conditions. Severe fruit spotting can decrease yield potential by reducing its marketability. |
Tomato Bacterial Spot
Bacterial spot is present wherever tomatoes or peppers are grown. Crop losses result from both defoliation and spotting on the fruit, reducing yield potential and fruit marketability. |
