Tomato growers throughout the Til.
ley have- uttered considerable crop
damage this year from a type or con
tagloua Time disease known ae west
ern yellow blight or curly top, and
more commonly called yellowe." This
disease has Infected nearly every to
mato field in the valley, with losses
frequently running aa high as 35 per
cent.
Although present la a mild form
nearly every season, curly top haa
been more destructive this year due
to the fact that the mildness of Isst
winter allowed the Insect wblch
transports the disease to live and
multiply In this section. This Insect
le known as the sugar-beet leaf hop
per, a slender, pale-yellow bug about
3-10 of an Inch long, with wings
folded along lta sides. Although some,
times called the "white fly," It Is not
9 true fly, but Is related to the apple
leaf hopper commonly found In the
Jralley.
Starts In Weeds.
Ourly top Is transported by the tn
Sect from Infected weeds to tomato
plants during the process of feeding.
After eating the juice of an Infected
weed, the leaf hopper transmits the
disease to tomato plants through a
beak which penetrates the leaf tissue.
As ths Insect Is sucking the Juice of
he vine some is regurgitated, whereby
the virus Is reproduced. The disease
remains In the body of the leaf hop
per until the Insect's death.
Sugar-beet leaf hoppers ordinarily
Jflo not live through the winter In
this section, but are transported or
fly here In the aummer from dryer
and warmer regions. They are strong
flyers, having been traced from do to
S00 mllea and during a recent heavy
windstorm the Insects are believed to
have flown here In great numbers
from eastern Oregon.
The outstanding eymptoms of curly
o-.i are a yellowing of the entire plant,
purple coloring and roughneas of leaf
veins, and a checking of growth. In
fected plants do not wilt, but stand
up to their full alee until they finally
turn brown and die. They bear no
fruit, unless Infection has started
uter the fruit has set.
Hard to Combat.
3. A. Mllbrath of Orenon Btata m,
lego, who la studying the disease In
this section, and L. a. Oentner, ento
mologist at the southern Oregon ex
periment ststlon, stste that there la
no practical means of combatting the
oisease otner than removing affected
Tines. Spray has no effect on the
leaf hopper, as the Insect Is not sub
ject to poisoning.
Experimental control work la being
carried on at Corvallls by Dr. F. P.
McWhorter, who also supervises the
work carried on here.
Mllbrath states the disease prevails
In the southern pare of the valley.
out tnat plotting cf lta distribution
and Intensity Is not complete. He
aid the disease has a wide range and
affecte practically all truck crops and
a, great number of weeda.
Tip Blight Keen.
Another disease which ordinarily
Boss even more damage to tomato
crops than curly top la beginning to
show up In the valle. Mllbrath re
ported. Thla la tlp-bllght, which ef
fects plants at the time the fruit Is
ettlnc with such symptoms as
spottwl foliage, dying tips, and the
entire plant turning brownish-black.
Professor P. C. Rolmer of the ex
periment station is In charge Of Bred
selection in combatting this disease,
but there has been no method found
for lta control other than removing
Infected vines. The experiment sta
tion does not advise growers to use
spray for combatting tip blight.
