“…More than 59 viruses were reported to infect cucurbit crops in 2012 [ 8 ]; however, the number of viruses that could potentially infect cucurbits worldwide has now increased to 96 ( Table S1 ). In the last two decades, several studies conducted worldwide [ 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 ] and in the USA [ 6 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 ] have reported that papaya ringspot virus W strain (PRSV-W), watermelon mosaic virus (WMV), zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV), cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), cucumber green mottle mosaic virus (CGMMV), and cucurbit aphid borne yellows virus (CABYV) are dominant viruses infecting cucurbits. In the US, >25 viruses infecting cucurbits have been reported [ 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 ].…”
