What is an opportunist?

An "opportunist" is a population (fungi, bacteria, insects…) that takes advantage of a favourable environment to settle in, multiply and feed on it. It often develops when the natural defences of the affected organism are weakened — for genetic reasons or linked to context (water stress, deficiencies, nutritional imbalances, overcrowding…). This is typically the case in monocultures, where a single host plant, uniform and present in large numbers, offers ideal ground for it to spread.

Identification key : Viral diseases (Damage and symptoms on the host)

Scientific name : Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV)

Other names : TSWV

Virus transmitted by thrips, mainly Frankliniella occidentalis, and one of the most damaging plant viruses worldwide because of its huge host range: tomato, pepper, lettuce, peanut, tobacco, chamomile, tarragon and many ornamentals. It causes ring spots, bronzing and necrosis of leaves and fruit, and stunting. Thrips acquire it as larvae and transmit it as adults.

Crops affected : Artichoke, Arugula, Basil, Bean, Beet, Bell pepper, Bulbs and seasonal plants, Cabbage, Cacti, Celery, Chamomile, Chickpea, Climbing plants (vines), Coffee, Coriander, Cotton, Cucumber, Dandelion, Echinacea, Eggplant, Fava bean, Garlic, Lavender, Lawns and turf, Leek, Lemon balm, Lettuce, Melon, Mint, Mustard, Nursery roses and shrubs, Onion, Papaya, Parsley, Passion fruit, Pea, Peanut, Pine, Pineapple, Potato, Rapeseed (Canola), Sage, Sesame, Soybean, Spinach, Squash / Pumpkin, Strawberry, Succulents, Sunflower, Tarragon, Thyme, Tomato, Watermelon, Zucchini
