Plant Pathology Journal1812-53871812-5425Asian Network for Scientific Information10.3923/ppj.2003.85.90FattouhFaiza A.2200322Double infection by zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV) and cucumber mosaic virus
(CMV) of the cucurbit host Cucurbita pepo (zucchini squash) cv. Eskandarani resulted
in a synergistic effect where symptoms in doubly infected plants were more enhanced
than plants singly infected by either virus. ELISA values revealed that the concentration
of CMV in doubly infected zucchini squash plants is significantly higher than that of
singly infected plants. However, ZYMV titer did not increase significantly in case of
double infection compared to singly infected plants. Increase of CMV in doubly infected
zucchini squash cv. Eskandarani was confirmed by local lesion assays and specific
infectivity and it increased with increase in time post inoculation.]]>Anjos, J.R., U. Jarlfors and S.A. Ghabrial,19928210221027Bourdin, D. and H. Lecoq,1994141143152Calvert, L.A. and S.A.
