From the Experts
How Can I Detect Rugose Virus in my Crop?
The virus can attack at any stage or productive part of the crop. Young leaves are usually the first to show signs and symptoms of infection. Symptoms can include: discoloration, spotting, green areas with wrinkles and wilting.
As for the fruit, discolorations also appear on the interior of the tomato as the virus dehydrates the exterior.
