A study was carried out to investigate the incidence and severity of fungal rot of tomato in different districts of Kashmir Valley. It was observed that in tomato fruits in storage are attacked by different fungal diseases such as Fusarium rot caused by Fusarium oxysporum, Mucor rot caused by Mucor plumbeus, and Rhizopus rot caused by Rhizopus stolonifer in all the districts surveyed. The incidence and severity of these diseases showed lot of variation during 2008–2010 in district Srinagar, Budgam and Anantnag. The severity of fungal rot was highest in Budgam followed by Anantnag and Srinagar districts, respectively. This varation in the incidence and severity in different districts may be due to different climatic and nutritional conditions.
