Early Blight Disease In Tomatoes: How To Spot And Stop It In Its Tracks?
Early blight is a common fungal disease that affects tomato plants. Since it affects the growth of plants early in the season, it is called ‘early blight’. It is caused by the fungus Alternaria solani and can be a significant problem in warm, humid environments. The fungus can also infect the potato crop. Alternaria solani can invade and infect any part of the host plant, such as leaves, stems and even fruits. The plant with infections yields poor quality fruits. Learn how to recognize the symptoms of early blight, what causes it, and most importantly, how to prevent and manage it in your fields in this article.
