Abstract

These results indicate that a strain of WMV is present in Kentucky which does not react to a widely used assay for detection of this economically important virus. Prior to this report, it has been unknown whether the recent, widespread occurrence of PVG-positive/CVS-negative cucurbit samples was due to a new variant of a previously recognized potyvirus or a new potyvirus. This report identifies the causal agent for at least some of these anomalous cases. Accepted for publication 2 January 2009. Published 13 March 2009.
