Abstract
Leveillula taurica has until recently been believed to be the causal pathogen of powdery mildew of tomatoes in Mauritius. However, in the year 2022, another powdery mildew species was detected on tomatoes under culture in various tomato growing localities of the island. Based on morphological comparison and molecular analysis, its identity was confirmed as Erysiphe neolycopersici (anam. Pseudoidium neolycopersici). This species has a worldwide distribution causing severe epidemics mainly on greenhouse tomatoes. There is evidence of the rapid spread of this pathogen during 2022–2023 causing serious infection of all tomato cultivars in greenhouse culture in Mauritius. The origin of these infections and its epidemiological consequences are discussed.
