Abstrakt: The multiplication and the migration of cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) were studied in greenhouse conditions in one susceptible 'Yolo wonder' and two resistant 'Milord' and 'Vania' pepper varieties. DAS-ELISA tests have revealed that the virus is replicated in inoculated leaves of the resistant varieties as high as in the susceptible variety. In the susceptible variety 'Yolo wonder", CMV migrated from the leaf lamina to the petiole two days after inoculation and it became systemic three days later regardless the season. In 'Milord' the virus migrated from the leaf lamina to the petiole five days after inoculation and it became systemic during the winter 16 days after inoculation. Whereas plants of the same genotype were not infected systemically during the summer. In 'Vania', during the two seasons, CMV spread from the blade to the petiole five days after inoculation, but the virus was not detected beyond the inoculated leaf. These results show that 'Milord' and 'Vania' are resistant to CMV migration. Therefore, the resistance to CMV migration is affected by plant genotype and temperature. The study of effect of pepper plant phenology on infection has revealed that resistance to CMV migration is also affected by the development stage of the plants. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
