“…'Nigeria' and 'Menina' and Cucumis sativus 'TMG', described as resistant to ZYMV (Provvidenti et al, 1984a;Paris et al, 1988), were also resistant to ZYMV-Su (Table 1). ZYMV-Su induced mosaic symptoms on melon accession PI 414723 which is resistant to some ZYMV isolates (Lecoq & Pitrat, 1984), indicating that it belongs to pathotype 2.…”

Zucchini yellow mosaic potyvirus (ZYMV) was isolated in 1993 from a squash plant (Cucurbita pepo cv. Eskandrani) showing severe leaf and fruit distortions, collected in the Gezira region (Sudan). This isolate (ZYMV-Su) was found to be very closely serologically related if not identical to the type strain from Italy. The host range was mostly limited to Cucurbitaceae but systemic infection was found to occur on sesame (Sesamum indicum), an important cultivated crop in Sudan. ZYMV-Su induced mosaic symptoms on the resistant melon accession PI 414723, indicating that it belongs to pathotype 2, but did not cause wilting of melon cv. Doublon. ZYMV-Su was efficiently transmitted by Myzus persicae and Aphis gossypii in a nonpersistent manner. Surveys conducted from 1993 to 1995 revealed that ZYMV occurred in the major cucurbit growing areas in Sudan, in a diversity of crops and agroecosystems.

“…Zucchini yellow mosaic virus isolate NAT (ZYMV-NAT) was obtained from B. Raccah (ARO, The Volcani Center, Israel) and was previously described (Antignus et al ., 1989) . This isolate was used in our tests because of its non-transmissibility by aphids and was the same strain used in previous work on resistance to ZYMV in 'Menina' (Paris et al, 1988) . These isolates were maintained on C. pepo F1 hybrid 'Diamant' .…”

Some cultivated species possess a good level of resistance to ZYMV : C. moschata`Nigeria' (Provvidenti et al ., 1984), C. moschata 'Menina' and 'Bolina', Cucurbita ficifolia Bouche 'Chila Ou Gila' and an unnamed cultivar (Paris et al ., 1988) and a Chinese cultivar of Cucurbita maxima Duch . ex Lam .…”

“…Resistance of another accession of 'Menina' to ZYMV was observed to be conferred by a single dominant gene, Zym (Paris et al ., 1988) . The frequency of plants resistant and susceptible to WMV2 and ZYMV in the progenies of the cross between 'Menina 15' and `Musquee de Provence' (Table 2) might have been explained by the action of one dominant gene for resistance for each virus .…”

Cucurbita crops, which include market types of pumpkin and squash, have unparalleled fruit variation and equally important economic value worldwide. Pumpkin and squash have versatile uses but are most popular in culinary, ornamental, snacking, and seed oil industries. The production of Cucurbita crops is hindered by diseases caused by fungal, oomycetes, and viral pathogens. Host resistance is an important component of integrated disease management for Cucurbita crops and is a major goal for plant breeders. This review addresses the major diseases of Cucurbita, including powdery mildew, downy mildew, Phytophthora rot, and aphid and whitefly transmitted viruses, with an emphasis on germplasm exploitation for the development of resistant cultivars. Resistance to powdery mildew derived from Cucurbita okeechobeensis subsp. martinezii (designated PM‐0) has been extensively deployed in commercial cultivars and was recently mapped on chromosomes 3 and 10 of Cucurbita moschata and Cucurbita pepo, respectively. Resistance to Phytophthora crown rot is present across several Cucurbita species, including Cucurbita lundelliana, C. okeechobeenesis subsp. okeechobeenesis, C. moschata, and C. pepo. Mapping studies have identified significant loci associated with Phytophthora crown rot resistance on chromosomes 4, 11, and 20 of C. moschata and chromosomes 4, 5, 8, 12, 13, 16, and 19 of C. pepo. Sources of resistance to aphid‐transmitted viruses exist in C. moschata, Cucurbita ficifolia, Cucurbita ecuadorensis, Cucurbita martinezii, C. ecuadorensis, Cucurbita maxima, and Cucurbita foetidissima. The availability of DNA markers linked to resistance against zucchini yellow mosaic virus and papaya ringspot virus in C. moschata and C. pepo has facilitated marker‐assisted selection (MAS) in breeding programs. On the other hand, sources of resistance to tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus (ToLCNDV), a major whitefly‐transmitted virus in Cucurbita, have been identified in C. moschata, C. lundelliana, and C. okeechobeensis. A major locus conferring resistance to ToLCNDV in C. moschata was recently mapped on chromosome 8 enabling the application of MAS with a prediction accuracy of 94.3%. Overall, the continued discovery and application of genomic tools for resistance breeding in Cucurbita will accelerate the rate of genetic gain while reducing costs associated with phenotyping.
