Zippering (fruit disorder) on tomatoes. This disorder (abiotic disease) happens when the flower anther sticks to the developing fruit as it grows. Characteristic symptom is a thin brown longitudinal scar with transverse scars resembling a zipper. It extends down the fruit. There may be more than one scar on a fruit. An open hole may develop next to the scar.
Worms damage the foliage and fruit of tomato plants by chewing or boring holes. Tomato pinworms bore dry shallow pinholes into stalks, buds and green fruit. Later, the pinholes on the fruit develop into discolored blotches. Tomato fruitworms also bore holes into the stalks, buds and green fruit, which then decay.
