Primarily tobacco. Reported on tomato, pepper and eggplant, but these are not considered important hosts
PEROHY
The role of infected seeds in disseminating the fungus remains undetermined in tobacco and seems insignificant for the spread of blue mould.
3 Known Hosts
Solanum lycopersicum
tomato
No
PEROHY-1,PEROHY-3
Not a host. Though older literature indicated that this fungus may attack tomato, it was based on symptoms and the pathogen was not confirmed and it is unlikely that tomato is even a host in nature. No evidence that seed is a pathway for this host or other hosts.
