It is inocu- lated into washed parts of the potato stem by smearing some of the culture on the stem and pricking into place by means of a sterile cambric needle into the young growing tissue. LESSON 32 Sleepy Disease of Tomatoes {Pusarium lycopersici Sacc).â^This organism can be cultivated on steamed rice, or on potato slants. Inoculate just above the lower leaves of the young stem by first washing the stem with distilled water. Place some of the culture on the part of the stem to be inoculated and prick the fungus into the stem with a sterile needle. In ten to fifteen days, the tomato plants begin to wilt and in three weeks the diseased conditions are unusually good for study. The culture growths show pale orange spore masses and a whitish mycelium. The tomato variety Consate is not susceptible. WoUenweber used the variety Stone and found it satisfactory. T, â ,, , ^ .
