Abstract

Many common vegetable diseases can be carried over from one crop to the next by means of contaminated seed.

The use of such seed also results in contamination of the soil with the disease-causing organisms.

Prevention or control of seed-bome diseases can be achieved by the use of appropriate chemical or hot water treatments.
