ToBRFV is an emerging tobamovirus which was first discovered by Salem et al. in 2015 in Jordan in greenhouse tomatoes and now threatens tomato and pepper crops around the world. It is easily transmitted by mechanical means and via seeds, which enables it to spread locally and over long distances. ToBRFV infects tomato plants harboring the Tm resistance genes, and also pepper plants harboring the L resistance alleles under certain conditions. Fruit production and quality of ToBRFV-infected tomato and pepper plants can be drastically affected, thus significantly impacting their market value (Salem et al., 2023).
