tobacco mosaic
Tobacco mosaic is a viral disease caused by the Tobacco Mosaic Virus (TMV) that affects tobacco and other plants, causing leaves to exhibit a mosaic pattern of light and dark patches. It becomes misshapen and deformed, leading to decreased crop yield. The virus can be spread through infected plant debris and is highly resistant to breakdown, persisting in the environment for a long time.
