Plate tectonics is not directly mentioned in the Bible, but Genesis 1:9â10 suggests that all of the land was once connected, whereas the continents are now separated. The catastrophic plate tectonics model and continental sprint during the Flood can explain this.
Hybrid tomato plants combine two different varieties of tomato plant to produce a cultivated variety with beneficial traits from both its parents. Some of the benefits hybrid tomatoes can provide compared to non-hybrid varieties include improved disease resistance, higher-quality fruit or a specific growth habit. Although hybrid tomatoes provide beneficial traits, they are often more expensive.
Tomato blight, in its different forms, is a disease that attacks a plantâs foliage, stems, and even fruit. Early blight (one form of tomato blight) is caused by a fungus, Alternaria solani, which over-winters in the soil and infected plants. Affected plants underproduce. Leaves may drop, leaving fruit open to sunscald. Early blightâs Latin name is sometimes confused with a form of tomato rot, alternaria, a different tomato problem altogether.
