Pepino mosaic virus (PepMV), a member of the genus Potexvirus, was first described in 1980 on pepino (Solanum muricatum) and was later isolated from different wild species of the genus Solanum (formerly Lycopersicon) (Soler et al., 2002). PepMV has been reported in several European countries and in North America, causing disease in tomato. In July 2008, plants of basil (Ocimum basilicum) showing interveinal chlorosis on young leaves were observed in three greenhouses in Sicily, in the area where tomato plants were found to be infected by PepMV in 2005 .

Abstract
Pepino mosaic virus (PepMV), a member of the genus Potexvirus, was first described in 1980 on pepino (Solanum muricatum) and was later isolated from different wild species of the genus Solanum (formerly Lycopersicon) (Soler et al., 2002). PepMV has been reported in several European countries and in North America, causing disease in tomato. In July 2008, plants of basil (Ocimum basilicum) showing interveinal chlorosis on young leaves were observed in three greenhouses in Sicily, in the area where tomato plants were found to be infected by PepMV in 2005 .File in questo prodotto:
