“…Transparent mulch reduced the incidence of virus disease, and delayed by 2 weeks the onset of virus symptoms compared with the bare soil. The potyviruses (PRSV-W, ZYMV, and WMV-2) and cucumovirus (CMV), which are transmitted in a non-persistent manner by aphid species (Nameth et al 1986) were more prevalent in this experiment. The reduced incidence of virus disease can be attributed to the effect of the mulch in confusing aphids, which vector the virus.…”

“…In Mexico, papaya ringspot-W, watermelon mosaic-2, zucchini yellow mosaic, and cucumber mosaic are the major virus diseases in cucurbit crops (Delgadillo et al 1989). These viruses are transmitted by aphids in a non-persistent manner (Nameth et al 1986). In cantaloup fields of Colima, Mexico, the most abundant aphid species caught in water yellow pan traps are (of major to minor importance): Uroleucon ambrosiae (Thomas), Aphis spiraecola Patch, Myzus persicae (Sulzer),A. gossypii Glover, Rhopalosiphum maidis (Fitch), A. craccivora Koch, Schizaphis graminum (Rondani), and A. nerii Boyer de Fonscolombe .…”

(1995) Effect of transparent mulch on insect populations, virus diseases, soil temperature, and yield of cantaloup in a tropical region, New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, 23:2, 199-204, DOI: 10.1080/01140671.1995.9513887 To link to this article: https://doi.org/10.1080/01140671.1995.9513887 New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, 1995, Vol. 23: 199-204 Abstract Transparent polyethylene mulch was tested for its efficacy in reducing insect populations, virus diseases, and increasing soil temperature and yield of cantaloup (Cucumis melo L.) in a tropical region. Transparent mulch reduced whitefly populations, aphids caught in yellow traps, and virus incidence, with respect to bare soil (control). Also, soil temperatures in the morning, midday, and afternoon were significantly increased in the transparent mulch. Cantaloup fruit yield was positively influenced by the mulched plot. The export-and national-quality fruit yield was 11-fold and two-fold higher, respectively in the mulched plot in relation to control. Total yield in the transparent mulch was 31.2 t/ha, whereas that in bare soil was 6.9 t.

“…Cucumber green mottle mosaic Tobamovirus (CGMMV), Cucumber mosaic Cucumovirus (CMV), Squash mosaic Comovirus (SqMV) and Melon necrotic spot Carmovirus (MNSV) have also long been known to be important viruses infecting cucurbit crops (9). These viruses occur in complexes and so cause dynamically changing problems (10).…”

“…Cucurbits have been reported to be infected with as many as 60 plant viruses worldwide (Nameth et al, 1986;Provvidenti, 1996;Zitter et al, 1996;Lecoq and Desbiez, 2012), at least 28 different viruses in were reported in Mediterranean region (Lecoq and Desbiez, 2012) and 15 of which were reported in Saudi Arabia (Al-Shahwan, 2003). Precise diagnosis has the prime importance in developing a management strategy of this virus.…”

To cite this paper: Amer, M.A., 2015. Biological and molecular characterization of cucumber green mottle mosaic virus affecting bottle gourd and watermelon plants in Saudi Arabia. AbstractSamples were collected from seven of each bottle gourd and watermelon plants grown in Riyadh and Hail regions of Saudi Arabia in May, 2012 showing symptom suspected to be virus infection and analyzed by a double antibody sandwich against bottle gourd and watermelon viruses. Two of watermelon and three of bottle gourd samples were found to be positive with Cucumber green mottle mosaic virus (CGMMV). However, variable results were obtained with other viruses infecting cucurbits. One sample of CGMMV positive samples from each region were homogenized in a mortar separately and used to make mechanical inoculation on 25 plant species which produced characteristic symptoms of tobamo virus infection. Five ELISA-positive samples from naturally infection were further tested and detected by RT-PCR assay using virus specific primers that amplified a 400 bp fragment in the coat protein gene. The nucleotide sequence of the PCR products from the Saudi isolates of CGMMV isolated from bottle gourd and watermelon were determined and demonstrated its similarity to the other isolates of CGMMV recorded in NCBI. The CP gene of CGMMV-Saudi Arabia isolates shared between 87.2% and 99.7% identity in nucleotide level. The synthesized cDNA probe for CGMMV detection was hybridized with nucleic acid extracts from infected samples collected from the above mentioned locations. This is the first report regarding the genetic makeup of CGMMV at the molecular level in Saudi Arabia.
