Wllt diaeaaes are widespread

agents that cause tbem are
ever-preaent in tbe soils oí
many oí the gardens and
fields.
North Carolina State
University agrícultural extensión
plant pathologists
describe the two most
prevalent wilt diseases oí
tomatoes in North Carolina
as fusarium wilt and
southern bacterial wilt,
which is known as Gran
ville wilt on tobáceo
Fusarium is caused by a
fungus and bacterial by a
bacterium, both oí which
are soil-borne. The fusarium
that infecta tomatoes
attacks tomatoes only.
Bacterial wilt, attacks
tobáceo, eggplant, pepper
and related plants, in ad
dition to tomatoes.
Under favorable growing
conditions, tomatoes
should bear un til first
frost If growing conditions
are good but your tomatoes
die before the end oí tbe
growing season, chances
are very good the reama
for their death is ont oí the
witt diseases
Tbe moat practical meaaure
is to plant tomate
varietiea that are reriataat
to the rhatiaaea Two Unes
developed at NCSU, Venus
and Satura, ara reaiatant
to botfa fuaaríum and
bacterial wiit.
Varietiea reaiatant to
common fuaaríum include
Homestead 24, Floradel,
Marión, Manalucie, Monte
Cario, Better Boy and
Manapal.
It is possible to chemically
treat infected aoil and
grow susceptible varíeties
on them A steam treatment
of the soil will also
give partía! control of the
wilt diseases
In any case, a practice of
rotating your planting site
is a good one to follow.
Plant resistant crops such
as corn, squash, okra or
melons in a rotation with
toma toes to cut down on
the level of disease agents
in the soil.
There are other diseases
of tomatoes, including
some other wilts. But if you
ha ve sick tomato plants,
chances are very good that
you have either or both
fu sari um or southern bacterial
wilt.
