Abstract
Gray leaf spot of tomato was observed on tomato plants growing in a middle of a pepper field where pepper plants were badly infected with gray leaf spot. Both Stemphylium solani and S. lycopersici were isolated from the lesion. Both species were highly pathogenic on tomato and pepper. This is the first report in Korea of occurrence of gray leaf spot of tomato caused by Stemphylium solani Weber.
