Attacks the stems of eggplant, causing plants to wilt. The
disease can also penetrate into fruit, creating a soft rot. To
control Phomopsis, select resistant varieties, sow pathogen-free
seeds, rotate crops, and spray with fungicides. Mulching and furrow
irrigation will reduce infection caused by water and soil
splashing.
