Abstract

Tomato is one of the significant vegetable crops in Croatia. Annual production varies between 20 to 30 ton with a yield of approximately 60 t/ha. Three bacterial diseases are common in tomato production: bacterial speck, caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato; bacterial spot, caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria; and bacterial canker, caused by Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis. Management of tomato bacterial diseases must focus on prevention. Damage may vary depending on abiotic conditions and cultivar. Economic impact can be reduced even after the disease symptoms are visible with good agricultural practice.
