Abstract

In cross and backcross populations of Pi 292190—an accession of Cucumis metuliferus (Naud.) Mey. resistant to papaya ringspot virus (PRVS)—with a susceptible line (Acc. 2459) of the same species, resistance to thia virus was conferred by a single dominant gene. Clones of F2 and testcross plants inoculated with PRSV or watermelon mosaic virus 1 (WMV-1) reacted Identically, suggesting that the factor for resistance to PRSV is closely linked to Wmv, or may be the same factor. PRSV and WMV-1 are known to be closely related serologically. Acc. 2459 of C. , metuliferus (‘horned cucumber’ or ‘jelly melon’) is a valuable host for the propagation of isolates of PRSV.
