Cucurbit yellow stunting disorder virus (CYSDV) causes high yield losses to cucurbits in
many parts of the world. In 1995, it was detected for the first time in Jordan but Jordanian
isolates have never been characterized at the molecular level. In 2005 and 2006, leaf
samples (2344) from symptomatic plants were collected from Jordan Valley, Ma'daba, Al‐
Mafraq, Al‐Karak, Jarash, Al‐Tafila, Al‐Balqa', Al‐Zarqa', Amman and Irbid. Detection by
tissue blot immunoassay (TBIA) showed that the infection rate of CYSDV in collected …
