Should I uproot this plant? Odd curling and damaged leaves.

[distasty]

Hello! I am located at south eastern Texas and due to the plentiful rain this year I have a beautiful little crop of tomatoes going. All my plants are pretty much over 5 feet tall and a very handsome shade of green, save one plant. I have a single plant out of 30 that has started to develop some kind of condition that creates some kind of blackish brown streaks on the leaves which cause (new growth) to curl and generally look like ca ca, but don't cause the plant to yellow or stop producing fruit or flowers.

the plant itself looks alittle stunted size wise (in comparision to other plants around it) but otherwise has healthy strong green stems and older leaves as well as fruit that hva no signs of distress.

It started getting crinkly and crunchy on new growth but seems to be creeping down the plant and has only gotten worse.

I don't want to uproot the offending plant as it has some very hansome fruit on it but at the same time, I don't want it infecting the rest of my crop if it's some kind of disease. I was hoping an old pro could give me some advice on whether or axe this plant or give advice on what might be causing the issue and how to treat it.

I belive it's an early girl.

Did that start at the top of the plant?

Are there little bumps on the underside of the affected leaves? If so it might be edema in which case it is not a disease but a symptom if being too wet

Yes, as far as I can tell, it started in the new growth and it kind of melted downward. The oldest part of the plant and the fruit do not seem effected what so ever.

if it spreads, i would uproot it.

I don't think it's edema as there aren't any visble welts on the undersides of the leaves.

Today there was similar damage on the stems near damaged leaves. This now appears to be some kind of fungus so I'm going to dispose of this plant just in case.

Thanks to all that gave me input!
