Crop rotation and cultural methods are not sufficiently effective in controlling Sclerotinia Stem Rot disease because of pathogen's large host range including weeds, its ability to survive as sclerotia, and possible plant infection by airborne ascospores released from germinating sclerotia left in nearby infected fields Furthermore, no known resistance to white mold is currently available for tomato and no fungicide is currently registered for pathogen control in Tunisia. Thus, biological control using indigenous and naturally occurring microorganisms within tomato rhizosphere may be effective in controlling disease.
