Twenty years of cucurbit breeding research at the World Vegetable Center

Crop Science, Volume 65, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
Abstract The contribution of cucurbit crops to global food and nutrition security is immense. They are economically and nutritionally important to smallholder farmers in Asia, who account for 81% of global cucurbit production. World Vegetable Center (WorldVeg) has been focused for 20 years on four species: bitter gourd (Momordica charantia), ridge ...

Severely Symptomatic Cucurbits in Croatia Dominantly Harbor a Complex of Potyviruses Including the Emerging Moroccan Watermelon Mosaic Virus

Agronomy
Potyviruses (family Potyviridae, genus Potyvirus), including emerging ones, pose a growing threat to cucurbit production. This study presents the first virome analysis of severely symptomatic cucurbits in continental Croatia, combining high-throughput ...

Next-Generation Sequencing and Genome Editing in Plant Virology

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has been applied to plant virology since 2009. NGS provides highly efficient, rapid, low cost DNA or RNA high-throughput sequencing of the genomes of plant viruses and viroids and of the specific small RNAs generated ...

Illustrated Workbook for the Detection of Plant Viruses Infecting Cucurbits: Demonstration of the Use of Direct Immunoblotting Assays [PDF]

, 2000
There are at least 5 viruses of cucurbitaceous plants (squash, melons, cucumber, etc.) that frequently cause severe to complete economic loss for cucurbit producers in the tropics.

Cloning and characterisation of nanobodies against the coat protein of Zucchini yellow mosaic virus

Plant Protection Science, 2018
Zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV), in the family Potyviridae, causes an economically important disease. Antibodies are valuable reagents for diagnostic assays to rapidly detect viral infection.

The coevolution of plants and viruses: Resistance and pathogenicity [PDF]

, 2010
Virus infection may damage the plant, and plant defenses are effective against viruses; thus, it is currently assumed that plants and viruses coevolve. However, and despite huge advances in understanding the mechanisms of pathogenicity and virulence in ...

Multilocus Sequence Typing of “Candidatus Phytoplasma Solani” and Detection of RNA Viruses Infecting Cucurbits in the Marmara Region, Türkiye

Plant Pathology, Volume 74, Issue 6, Page 1905-1914, August 2025.
This study provides the first multilocus genetic characterisation of “Candidatus Phytoplasma solani” strains infecting cucurbits. ABSTRACT The stolbur disease associated with “Candidatus Phytoplasma solani” (CaPsol) is very common in Europe and the Mediterranean regions and adversely affects perennial or annual plants but is rarely reported on ...

First Report of Zucchini yellow mosaic virus in Argentina

Plant Disease, 2000
In August 1996, a severe viral disease occurred in squash produced in the subtropical Province of Salta, Argentina. Plants of Cucurbita pepo L. (zucchini) and Cucurbita maxima L. ‘Any’ were affected. Approximately 50% of the plants showed prominent yellow mosaic, necrosis, and foliar distortion.

Molecular epidemiology of Zucchini yellow mosaic virus in France: An historical overview

Virus Research, 2009
Cucurbit viruses are involved in complex and changing pathosystems in France, with new virus strains or species regularly reported. Zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV) is an archetypal emerging virus that was reported in France in 1979. It has since caused sporadic but occasionally very severe economic losses and its epidemiology still remains poorly ...
