Summary:Electron microscopy and test plant reaction studies was conducted with 21 virus isolates obtained from naturally infected cucumber plants grown in commercial glasshouses and manifesting vein chlorosis, mosaic with dark green blistering light deformity of the leaf blade and slightly visible dark green patches on a chlorotic background on the fruits. All isolates caused local chlorotic lesions without systemic symptoms on C. amaranticolor, but the species N. tabacum, N. glutinosa, G. globosa, C. quinoa and C. murale were not infected. At the electron microscope were observed straight rigid rods, about 300 Nm in length. Thus, it was demonstrated that the disease reported lately in the cucumber crops of some glasshouses is caused by CGMMV, identified for the first time experimentally in Romania.
