Management

  • Vein clearing, puckering and chlorophyll leaf tissues lobbing in.
  • Margin and distal parts of leaves roll downward and inwards, mosaic mottling, dark green blisters, leaf distortion which result in shoe string system and stunting of plants.
  • On fruits circular concentric rings are produced.If affected earlier no fruit formation.
  • Vectored by aphids Aphis gossypii, A. craccivora and also spreads to cucurbits not through seeds
