Characterization of tomato leaf mould pathogen, Passalora fulva, in Croatia

Leaf mould (Passalora fulva) has emerged as an important disease of greenhouse-growing tomato crops in Croatia during the last decade. The presence of P. fulva races was investigated, in vitro sensitivity of the fungus to several fungicidal products was tested, and susceptibility of some old tomato varieties was checked. Seventeen isolates were collected from different parts of Croatia and inoculated on tomato cv. ‘Moneymaker’ differentials with or without different resistance genes. Five isolates of Cf‑2 race isolates were tested for the presence of Avr2 gene polymorphisms by PCR and sequencing.Sensitivity of a selected P. fulva race 2 isolate was examined on agar plates amended with four fungicides products.
