Buckeye rot of tomato caused by Phytophthora nicotianae var. parasitica is a serious threat to the crop production and has taken a heavy toll of the crop in India which affects mostly the fruits during both spring and winter season crops. In the present investigation, six biological control agents were screened for the efficacy against mycelial growth of P. nicotianae var. parasitica. Out of the six fungal and bacterial biocontrol agents tested, Trichoderma virens resulted in maximum mycelial growth inhibition (77.67%) of the test pathogen followed by T. hamatum (69.40 %), T. harzianum (68.52 %) and T. viride (67.43 %).

  • Disease Update
    Disease Update The Long List of Diseases Affecting Tomatoes and Peppers in a Wet Growing Season By Thomas A. Zitter Cornell University (May 2001) Introduction The 2000 growing season will be remembered for the large number of diseases that could be found on both tomatoes and peppers. Some of these diseases are common to both crops, and include bacterial leaf spot, Phytophthora blight, and white mold. In this report, we will focus on the main fungal (late blight, early blight, Septoria leaf blight, Phytophthora blight), and bacterial (spot, speck and canker) diseases of tomato/pepper. Tomato Late Blight Tomato growers should be aware that late blight infections of this crop are not new in New York, but occurrence of the disease has definitely increased during the 1990s with the arrival of new immigrant strains of Phytophthora infestans. In 1993, U.S.-7 caused widespread losses in home gardens in rural upstate New York, with the disease eventually spreading into four counties (Oneida, Herkimer, Madison and Oswego). In 1996, late blight samples confirmed in the Plant Disease Diagnostic Lab were submitted from six counties (Chautaupqua, Ontario, Tioga, Orange, Schenectady and Clinton), consisting of U.S.-1, U.S.-8 and U.S.-17. Once again, the infections for the most part were limited to home gardens or tomato plantings used for nearby roadside stands. In 1997, both commercial and homeowners suffered the greatest losses to late blight previously recorded. Tomato late blight was verified by the Diagnostic Lab from samples submitted from 12 counties from western, central and eastern New York.
