Abstract
IN the 1944 growing season a number of tomato plants grown as an outdoor crop under commercial conditions were noted as being infected with a virus disease. Subsequent work on this disease has revealed that it has been hitherto unrecorded. The purpose of this note is to put on record the disease which has since been found on a number of commercial holdings. Further details will be published shortly, but the effects of the disease appear to warrant this preliminary statement.
