New research, 'Transmission efficiency of Cucumber mosaic virus by aphids associated with virus epidemics in snap bean,' is the subject of a report. According to a study from the United States, "Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) is a major component of the virus complex that has become more pronounced in snap bean in the midwestern and northeastern United States since 2001. Multiple-vector-transfer tests were done to estimate the CMV transmission efficiencies (p) of the main aphid species identified in commercial snap bean fields in New York and Pennsylvania." "The four most efficient vectors (p >0.05) were Aphis gossypii, A. glycines, Acyrthosiphon pisum, and Therioaphis...
