I suggest it's Tomato Mosaic Virus
The symptoms of Tomato Mosaic Virus include mosaic patterns or mottling (light and dark green patches), distortion or curling of leaves, yellowing, and sometimes a general stunted growth of the plant.
The Tomato Mosaic Virus spreads through infected plant material, contaminated tools, hands, and insects like aphids.
To handle it, you can:
1. Preventive Measures: Use disease-free seeds or plants, sanitize tools, and avoid handling plants when they're wet to reduce transmission.
2. Isolation: Remove and destroy infected plants to prevent the spread to healthy ones.
3. Control Vectors: Manage aphids and other insects that can transmit the virus by using insecticides or other pest control methods.
4. Good Hygiene: Wash hands, tools, and equipment thoroughly after handling infected plants.
Unfortunately, there's no cure for the virus itself, so prevention and management are key to reducing its impact.
