Abstract

A virus associated with chlorotic spots on cucumber fruits was mechanically trasmitted to a number of herbaceous hosts. Ultrastructural investigations showed ' cytopathic inclusions similar to those induced by nepovirus infection. Virions were spherical and contained two ss-RNA species of about 8300 and 7400 nucleotides. The viral coat protein migrated in SDS-PAGE as two bands of about 50 and 14 kDa. However, virus particles did not react, in immunodiffusion tests, with antisera to several known nepoviruses with some-what similar properties.
