Abstract
Soybean, Glycine max, is susceptible to about 50 viruses belonging to 18 groups and is commonly used as an indicator host in plant virus research. Approximately 25 viruses occur naturally on soybean and of these 10 are of economic importance. These viruses, and the groups to which they belong, are: bean pod mottle (BPMV, comovirus), cowpea chlorotic mottle (CCMV, bromovirus), cowpea mild mottle (CMMV, carlavirus), cowpea mosaic (CpMV, comovirus ; syn.= cowpea yellow mosaic), mung bean yellow mosaic (MYMV, geminivirus), soybean chlorotic mottle (SCMV, caulimovirus), soybean dwarf (SDV, luteovirus), soybean mosaic (SMV, potyvirus), tobacco ringspot (TRSV, nepovirus) and tobacco streak (TSV, ilarvirus). Furthermore, it is increasingly being recognized that several undefined viruses or virus-like agents transmitted by whiteflies offer considerable threat to soybeans in tropical parts of Africa and Asia (1).
