Description:
Tomato yellow leaf curl is a potentially destructive disease of tomatoes caused by the tomato yellow leaf curl geminivirus (TYLCV). This disease is generally introduced into fields on infected transplants, but is then spread from plant to plant by the silverleaf whitefly. Management of this disease relies in part on the use of TYLCV-resistant tomato varieties. Primary Audience:
