The following ten accessions of tomato were used for the study: .
Dextrose Agar (PDA) and incubated at room temperature with the morphological characteristic of Fusarium been studied under compound microscope. F. oxysporum after incubation was purified by repeating sub-culture into fresh sterile media until pure culture were examined on the microscope. Propa!?ules was prepared in 100ml distilled water. The resultant suspension, with a concentration of 10 6 _10 7 propagules per ml was used to inoculate tomato plants 2wks after transplanting. 3.5 Screenhouse experiment: The experiment was in completely randomized design with 3 replicates comprising of 90 space pots of accession's population maintaining intra and Inter spacing of 0.5m and 1m within the pots. Platform comprising of bamboo were made,occupied by 10m by 5m land area space in which the pots was placed to avoid soil borne pathogen into the pot experimental pots. Cultural practices: wetting and weeding were regularly observed. Trans plan ting: Tomato seedlings of 4 wks old were transplanted into pots containing sterilized Tomato accessions = 10 Fusarium strains = 2 most virulent + 1 control = 3
