Abstract
Turkey is among the top 10 producers of cucumber, melon, watermelon, and squash in the world. Lately, seed-borne viruses have become a major issue in greenhouse and field-grown cucurbits. In this study, the incidence of kyuri green mottle mosaic virus (KGMMV) was determined in seeds from various species (cucumber, melon, watermelon, summer squash, bottle gourd, winter squash) of Cucurbitaceae. KGMMV detection in a total of 20 seed lots of each cucurbit species was done by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and RT-PCR. The highest virus incidence was 45% in melon followed by 25% in cucumber and 10% in squash. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of KGMMV in cucurbit crops in Turkey and this highlights the potential risk of KGMMV to commercial cucurbit seed lots.
期刊介绍：
Australasian Plant Disease Notes is an international journal for publication of short reports from all countries which describe original research that transcends national boundaries. All aspects of plant pathology are covered including new geographical records of diseases or pathogens, new pathogens or pathogen strains, taxonomic papers, quarantine notes, disease management and diagnostic methods. Australasian Plant Disease Notes is a publication of the Australasian Plant Pathology Society.
