TBSV00
Tomato bushy stunt virus, a Tombusvirus, affects vegetables, fruit trees, and ornamentals. It can cause stunting, bushy growth patterns, chlorotic spots, leaf crinkling, necrosis, and deformation of fruits and leaves. TBSV has no known insect vectors. It can spread through infected tissue, mechanically through contaminated equipment, through soil, root wounds, and water.
3 Known Hosts
Capsicum annuum
pepper
No
TBSV00-3, TBSV00-4, TBSV00-5
Occasionally listed as transmitted by pepper seed (TBSV00-4), but no data or references to support seed transmission were found.

There is not sufficient evidence that tomato seed is a pathway for TBSV. The Tomlinson and Faithful (1984) abstract reported detecting the virus in symptomless tomato fruit and in seedlings from these fruits, but their paper isn't publicly available for confirmation. Other sources reference this one study, but no research was found to support seeds as a pathway in nature for TBSV.

It is recommended to use healthy planting material in soils that have not previously had TBSV-infected plants. Observations in the field and tests on various tomato cultivars suggest that some varieties may have resistance to TBSV, offering a potential method for controlling the virus.
