Oedema was found in tomato plants grown under controlled conditions of 23°C day and 13°C night temperatures, high relative humidity (80%), and irrigation to saturation. Three light intensities were tested on two cultivars, Hosen Eilon and Viresto. There were considerable differences in their response, and in the degree of disease incidence, under the different light intensities. In cv. Hosen Eilon the disease appeared in all three light treatments; the disease symptoms increased in severity as light intensity declined. Cv. Viresto showed no signs of the disease.
