โœฆ Synopsis

A survey of the post-harvest fruit rot diseases of tomato was conducted in five states of Nigeria. During severe infections, the diseases could cause 25% loss at harvest and 34% loss of the remaining product in transit, storage and market stalls; thus giving an overall loss of about SO% of the product. Two types of rots, soft and dry were recognised. The soft rot was found to account for about 85 % and the dry rot about 15 %
