      <description><![CDATA[Bacterial wilt is a soilborne disease found in warm, temperate, subtropical and tropical areas. Ralstonia solanacearum (previously called Pseudomonas solanacearum) enters its host through roots and colonizes the xylem elements in the vascular tissue.  Ralstonia has an extremely wide host range with well over 200 hosts reported. - Full Content set to .]]></description>

      <pubDate>Thu, 23 Jun 2011 19:06:15 GMT</pubDate>
      <description><![CDATA[Tomato yellow leaf curl is a disease of tomatoes caused by the whitefly-transmitted virus, Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Virus (TYLCV). This disease was first observed in Louisiana in 2000 and since then has occurred sporadically in both field- and greenhouse-grown tomatoes. After a plant becomes infected, new growth is severely stunted and fruit production ceases. Disease management relies on use of disease-free transplants, planting resistant varieties and controlling whiteflies. - Full Content set to .]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Fusarium wilt of tomato is caused by the soil-borne fungus Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici. This pathogen infects roots directly or enters through wounds and rapidly colonizes the xylem of the infected plant.  This disease usually occurs during periods of hot weather from blossoming to fruit maturation. Because this pathogen can persist in infested soils for many years, avoiding areas with a history of Fusarium wilt and planting resistant varieties are your best management options. - Full Content set to .]]></description>
