| Abstract | Affected tomato plants are stunted and their branches and petioles tend to assume an erect position. Leaflets are smaller than those of healthy plants, puckered, and often show an accentuated upward curling of their margins with or without yellowing. Growth of the plants is inhibited. Affected plants produce either no fruit or few small-sized fruits depending on the stage of development at which the viral attack occurs. Yield losses in tomato usually range from 50 to 75% (Yassin and Nour 1965; Makkouk et al. 1979; Al Musa 1982; Makkouk and Laterrot 1983) but may be as high as 100%, making tomato production unprofitable. |
