A survey of the post-harvest fruit rot diseases of tomato was conducted in five states of Nigeria. During severe infections, the diseases could cause 25% loss at harvest and 34% loss of the remaining product in transit, storage and market stalls; thus giving an overall loss of about 50% of the product. Two types of rots, soft and dry were recognised. The soft rot was found to account for about 85% and the dry rot about 15% of the overall loss. Erwinia carotovora, Rhizopus oryzae, R. stolonifer, Fusarium equiseti, F. nivale and F. oxysporum were established as the soft rot pathogens; while Aspergillus aculeatus, A. flavus, Cladosporium tenuissimum, Corynespora cassiicola, Curvularia lunata, Penicillium expansum P. multicolor and Rhizoctonia solani were established as the dry rot pathogens of tomato fruits in Nigeria.
在尼日利亚的五个州对番茄采后果实腐烂病害进行了调查。在严重感染期间，这些病害在收获时可造成25%的损失，在运输、储存和市场摊位上剩余产品损失34%；因此，产品总体损失约为50%。识别出两种腐烂类型，即软腐和干腐。发现软腐约占总损失的85%，干腐约占15%。胡萝卜软腐欧文氏菌、米根霉、匐枝根霉、木贼镰刀菌、雪腐镰刀菌和尖孢镰刀菌被确定为软腐病原菌；而刺孢曲霉、黄曲霉、细极链格孢、棒孢叶斑病菌、新月弯孢霉、扩展青霉、多色青霉和立枯丝核菌被确定为尼日利亚番茄果实的干腐病原菌。
