Abstract

In March 2021 an outbreak of post-harvest rot of tomatoes was observed in fruit collected from the research field of Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya university campus, West Bengal, India. Approximately 5% of the fruits, cv. Rupali, showed symptoms. Initially, 0.2-0.5 cm round, water-soaked, light brown lesions were observed which gradually increased in radius up to 1-1.5 cm. From the lesions a dark brown to black fungal mass erupted extending up to 2-3mm from the surface of the fruit.
