Izvleček:GEOTRICHUM CANDIDUM and PICHIA KLUYVERI, the two important yeast which incite rots of tomato fruits in Southern Nigerian were frequently isolated from field/soil and various parts of the host plant during the wet season, but rarely during the dry season.

CANDIDUM was isolated from the shoot and roots of seedlings as well as the flowers and fruits; it was also a frequent contaminants of tomato seeds extracted during the wet season. P.
