“…This result is in agreement with previous studies conducted in southeastern Spain (Juárez et al, 2013;Kassem et al, 2007Kassem et al, , 2013) that confirmed CABYV as the most prevalent aphid-borne virus in these crops. CABYV seems to be widespread throughout the Mediterranean basin and Europe (Desbiez et al, 2020;Mehle et al, 2019;Menzel et al, 2020;Minicka et al, 2020;Mnari-Hattab et al, 2009). In fact, CABYV appears to be the most common virus affecting cucurbit crops across different climatic regions, temperate, Mediterranean, and subtropical (Lecoq et al, 1992).…”

“…CABYV was initially described in France in 1992 (Lecoq et al, 1992), and subsequently it has been reported in cucurbit crops from Algeria, Greece, Italy, Iran, Lebanon, Spain, Tunisia, and Turkey (Juárez et al, 2004;Mnari-Hattab et al, 2009;Tomassoli & Meneghini, 2007). Most recently, it has also been reported in Germany (Menzel et al, 2020), Slovenia (Mehle et al, 2019), and Poland (Minicka et al, 2020). CABYV is especially spreading through the northern hemisphere where it is known to cause the most harmful epidemic viral diseases in agriculture (Lecoq et al, 1992).…”

“…CABYV was first described in cucurbit production areas of France in 1992 [ 97 ]. Since then, it has spread to Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Greece, Italy (including Sicily), Spain, and Tunisia [ 3 , 5 , 98 , 99 , 100 ], with current detections in Poland, Slovenia, Germany, and Bulgaria [ 101 , 102 , 103 , 104 ]. In Spain, CABYV was first identified in 2004 in the Murcia region in melon and zucchini plants [ 14 ], and since then, it has become one of the most prevalent viruses affecting cucurbit crops reaching incidences of 83% and 66% for melon and squash samples, respectively [ 14 , 32 , 34 ].…”

Occurrence, Distribution, and Management of Aphid-Transmitted Viruses in Cucurbits in Spain

The effectiveness of pest and disease management in crops relies on knowledge about their presence and distribution in crop-producing areas. Aphids and whiteflies are among the main threats to vegetable crops since these hemipterans feed on plants, causing severe damage, and are also able to transmit a large number of devastating plant viral diseases. In particular, the widespread occurrence of aphid-transmitted viruses in cucurbit crops, along with the lack of effective control measures, makes surveillance programs and virus epidemiology necessary for providing sound advice and further integration into the management strategies that can ensure sustainable food production. This review describes the current presence and distribution of aphid-transmitted viruses in cucurbits in Spain, providing valuable epidemiological information, including symptom expressions of virus-infected plants for further surveillance and viral detection. We also provide an overview of the current measures for virus infection prevention and control strategies in cucurbits and indicate the need for further research and innovative strategies against aphid pests and their associated viral diseases.

“…DAS-ELISA has been the most commonly used test for CABYV diagnoses in the Mediterranean region (Lecoq et al, 1992). This virus has been reported in 15 Mediterranean countries, including Algeria, Turkey, Greece Desbiez, 2012), Lebanon (Abou-Jawdah et al, 1997), Spain (Juarez et al, 2004), Italy (Tomassoli and Meneghini, 2007), Tunisia (Mnari-Hattab et al, 2009), Morocco (Aarabe et al, 2018, and Slovenia (Mehle et al, 2019). In Spain, CABYV incidence was determined in 924 melon and squash samples collected during 2003 to 2004.…”

Cucurbits are among the most cultivated crops, and the most economically important species are melon (Cucumis melo L.), cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.), watermelon (Citrullus lanatus Thumb.), squash (Cucurbita pepo L.), and pumpkin (Cucurbita spp.). These crops have become important income sources providing export and local consumption commodities in many Mediterranean countries. Increased area of cucurbits has led to the emergence of several viral diseases, which can have impacts on crop production and threaten agricultural sustainability. An overview of the most damaging cucurbit viruses in the Mediterranean area is provided to improve understanding of the diseases they cause and to emphasize effective disease management strategies. An updating of the geographical distribution of these viruses, the symptoms they cause and their means of transmission is also provided. Disease management methods and measures by farmers and phytosanitary authorities to address the virus outbreaks are outlined, including diagnostics, use of tolerant cultivars, and chemical and biological vector control. Mediterranean region farmers have learned many lessons from the damaging pandemics caused by cucurbit viruses, through the extensive published research, and this review provides a basis for managing future outbreaks of newly emerging virus infections.
