Key Insights

Cucumber mosaic is spread by aphids or handling infected material. Control weeds and surround the area with a taller non-susceptible plant such as corn may help stop aphids from blowing in. Aphids ... technologynetworks: New RNA Agents Can Protect Crops Against the Cucumber Mosaic Virus New RNA-based active agents reliably protect plants against the Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), the most common virus in agriculture and horticulture. They were developed by researchers at the Martin ...
