Default Blight or Something Else

Took a week vacation, came home and found this. Is it Blight? FWIW the plant is Sun Gold F1

Cut of the leaf section https://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl...=1494992726790 Those are most likely where the yellow parts are. They look like downward growing branches like the one on the bottom of the picture right- center. Those will never produce a flower or tomato anyway.

Is the plant wilting at all during the hottest part of the day?

It looks to me like it is the early stages of fusarium wilt. A problem I am all to familiar with. I now graft all my tomato plants because it is so bad here.

No, not that hot yet and I have drip irrigation and plenty of mulch.

Robert, I just wrote a LOT about the three races of Fusarium and why it's important to know which race(s) you have in your garden,etc.

Here's the link and please scroll down to the last post, I think, when I was asked about my opinions about what I posted about.
