“…Aphis gossypii has been reported as being the most efficient vector of CMV infecting melon, followed by A. craccivora, A. fabae and A. spiraecola (= citricola) (Labonne et al, 1982). M. persicae and A. gossypii are considered to be the most efficient vectors of WMV (Coudriet, 1961). In the case of ZYMV, A. craccivora had a higher propensity and efficiency than A. gossypii (Yuan and Ulman, 1996).…”

Transmission experiments of different isolates of Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), Watermelon mosaic virus (WMV) and Zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV) were conducted using established colonies of Aphis gossypii Glover, Myzus persicae (Sulzer), A. fabae Scopoli and A. craccivora Koch as vectors. The transmission procedure used provided an estimate of the virus transmission efficiency for each aphid species. Two different virus isolates/aphid clones were tested for each virus species using the most efficient aphid species as A. gossypii was the most efficient vector of CMV (100 +/- 0%), while M. persicae showed the highest efficiency of transmiting WMV (67.9 +/- 28.5%) and ZYMV (96.4 +/- 3.6%). Both WMV and ZYMV showed variability in their transmission efficiency by aphids. No significant differences were found in the efficiency of the two CMV isolates tested. No differences were observed in the vector transmission ability between clones of each aphid species tested. Results of our transmission studies together with previously known information on the temporal and spatial patterns of virus epidemics in melon crops in Spain suggest that CMV is mainly transmitted by a colonising aphid such as A. gossypii. In contrast, WMV is mainly transmitted by non-colonising transient aphid species such as M. persicae that alight on melon crops during late spring.

“…Aphid inoculation of virus assisted by A. gossypii. A. gossypii was used as vector in transmission assays because it is the most abundant aphid species on melon in Spain (29) and is an efficient vector of the viruses tested here (8,10,36). For each accession tested, plants at expanded cotyledons and one-leaf growth stage were infested with 20 young adult apterae individuals that were given a 2-to 3-min acquisition period on virus source plants after a starvation period of one and a half hours.…”

Potential Sources of Resistance for Melon to Nonpersistently Aphid-borne Viruses

et al. 2003

Two hundred and sixty-eight Cucumis melo and wild relative accessions were evaluated for resistance to Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), Papaya ringspot virus strain W (PRSV-W), Watermelon mosaic virus (WMV), and Zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV). Symptom development and systemic infection based on double antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were monitored. Sources of resistance were scarce. However, a number of them were found among the C. melo accessions tested. Thus, the accession C-189 behaved similarly to PI 161375 and showed resistance to “common” CMV strains although it was infected by a “song” type CMV. For WMV, the accessions C-768 and C-425, although infected, exhibited very mild symptoms, and recovery from infection occurred in some occasions in the former. A similar trait was also found in C-105, although in this case symptoms rarely appear and part of the plants are not infected. In addition, C-105 was highly resistant to virus transmission by Aphis gossypii, similarly to PI 161375. Accessions C-885 and C-769 exhibited resistance to PRSV-W, WMV, and ZYMV; therefore they are potential sources of multiple resistance. Resistance traits were also found in wild relatives that could be exploited when interspecific barriers with C. melo can be circumvented.

“…The cotton-melon aphid, A. gossypii Glover, feeds on a wide range of dicotyledonous plants including members of the Cucurbitaceae family. In melon, this aphid species is considered an important pest being also an efficient vector of nonpersistent virus that seriously affects melon crops (Coudriet, 1962;Lecoq et al, 1979). In 1980, Pitrat and Lecoq found resistance to A. gossypii in the Korean melon line PI 161375 (Songwhan Charmi) controlled by the gene Vat.…”
