Spreading of cucumber mosaic virus in cowpea leaf tissues was investigated in relation to the formation of local lesions. The following results were obtained. 1) Local lesions appeared more slowly but the size was larger at 20C than at 30C.2) Spreading of the virus from the epidermis to the second cell layer (adjacent to the epidermis) was faster at 30C than at 20C, judging from the experiment in which di-
