Introduction In the last twenty years glasshouse tomato production in the Netherlands increased from 75.000 tons in 1950t o 200.000 tons ten years later and to 379.000 tons in 1970. The acreage increased from 1110h a in 1950t o 2589 ha in 1960an d 3464h a in 1965, remaining approximately at that level until the present time (3339 ha in 1970). The rise in production during thefirstmentioned decenniu m was largely obtained by the increasei n acreage,bu t during the second decennium there was a considerable risei n productivity per unit area. This resulted from intensification of production methods, by the construction of glasshouses with better lighttransmissibility , by improvement of the heating and ventilation systems, of the irrigation and dressing methods and of soil disinfection. Also, the propagation of better plant material concentrated to a greater extent than before on specialised holdings, the rise of temperatures during propagation and after transplanting and extensive application of carbon dioxide contributed to theimprovemen t of productivity. Thesechanges ,especiall y thoseconcernin g propagation and the temperatures used, have had an important influence on the incidence of diseases, such as root and foot rots. These diseases,whic h havealway s occurred on tomato in the Netherlands, were knownt ob ecause db yth efung i Rhizoctoniasolani Kiihn ,Botrytis cinerea Pers .e xFr . and Didymella lycopersici Kleb. (Riemens, 1939; Fremouw, 1940; Verhoeff, 1963a and 1963b). A different typeo f root and foot rot which wasno t caused by any of the pathogens mentioned abovewa sfoun d in 1963. Verhoeff and De Mos (1963)considere d it to be of a physiological nature. Furthermore, an aberrant type of stembase rot, appearing within a few days after transplanting in June and July, had been reported from 1959 onwards, which was also thought to be a physiogenic disorder (Anonymous, 1959; De Boer, 1960).Thes e two 'physiological' disorders gradually increased in frequency and reached epidemic proportions in 1966an d 1967.I t was therefore decided to start a special research project at the Glasshouse Crops Research and Experiment Station at Naaldwijk toinvestigat e these problems. The studieswer eaimin g to find: a. the cause of the disease; b. the conditions which enhance its incidence; c. the ways of prevention or control. II. Thecultur eo f tomatoes 1. In theNetherland s Several ways of tomato-growing can be distinguished: a. planted in winter in fully heated glasshouses; b. planted in springtime in slightly and non-heated glasshouses and c. planted in summer without heating followed by heating in autumn. The crop in the open air is not mentioned, as this way of growing on a commercial scale has beenabandone d inth eNetherlands .

A. Soil disinfection During the last ten years annual soil disinfection in summer or autumn has become general practice. Previously, steam was used and introduced into the soil through dug-in pipes or chloropicrin was applied. To reduce labour costs, however, pipe steaming was replaced by sheet steaming; besides, methyl bromide became available as soil disinfectant. If root-knot nematodes only are present in the preceding crop, the soili streate d solely with a nematicide.

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 %).

Abstract: Plant diseases cause losses of approximately 16% globally. Thus, management measures must be implemented to mitigate losses and guarantee food production. In addition to traditional management measures, induced resistance and biological control have gained ground in agriculture due to their enormous potential. Endophytic fungi internally colonize plant tissues and have the potential to act as control agents, such as biological agents or elicitors in the process of induced resistance and in attenuating abiotic stresses. In this review, we list the mode of action of this group of Citation: Fontana, D.C.; de Paula, S.; microorganisms which can act in controlling plant diseases and describe several examples in which Torres, A.G.; de Souza, V.H.M.; endophytes were able to reduce the damage caused by pathogens and adverse conditions.

  • 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.

Traditionally cultivated for fiber, fiber crops have also become sources of other materials such as food, animal feed, cosmetics and medicine. Asia and America are the two main production areas of fiber crops in the world. However, oomycete diseases have become an important factor limiting their yield and quality, causing devastating consequences for the production of fiber crops in many regions. To effectively control oomycete pathogens and reduce their negative impacts on these crops, it is very important to have fast and accurate detection systems, especially in the early stages of infection. With the rapid development of molecular biology, the diagnosis of plant pathogens has progressed from relying on traditional morphological features to the increasing use of molecular methods. The objective of this paper was to review the current status of research on molecular diagnosis of oomycete pathogens on fiber crops.
