Sounds like dampening off disease. Sorry, I don't know the cause or cure. Try a net search. Good luck

What would cause the stem on a tomato transplant put into the ground two
weeks ago to suddenly rot off about an inch below the soil line? Looks like
some sort of bacterial rot similar to what I experienced once years ago when
I transplanted tomatoes into recently plowed down clover cover crop. That
time I figured that bacterial decomposition of the plowed under clover also
attacked the roots of the tomatoes. The ground where I am having the
problem this year was plowed and prepped last fall and the rows mulched with
plastic.
