Tomato brown rugose fruit virus does not occur in Egypt
In the EPPO RS 2020/102, it was reported that tomato brown rugose fruit virus (Tobamovirus, ToBRFV – EPPO Alert List) had been detected for the first time in tomato samples from Egypt during a research study. After further investigations, the NPPO of Egypt considered that the results of this research study were not reliable and therefore could not be used to indicate the presence of the virus in Egypt.
