Abstract
Some diseases are caused by coinfection of several pathogens in the same plant. However, studies on the complexity of these coinfection events under different environmental conditions are scarce. Our ongoing research involves late wilting disease of cucumber caused by coinfection of (CGMMV) and spp. We specifically investigated the role of various temperatures (18, 25, 32°C) on the coinfection by CGMMV and two predominant species occurring in cucumber greenhouses under Middle Eastern climatic conditions. During the summer months, was most common, whereas predominated during the winter-spring period. preferred higher temperatures while preferred low temperatures and caused very low levels of disease at 32°C when the 6-day-old seedlings were infected with alone. Nevertheless, after applying a later coinfection with CGMMV on the 14-day-old plants, a synergistic effect was detected for both species at optimal and suboptimal temperatures, with causing high mortality incidence even at 32°C. The symptoms caused by CGMMV infection appeared earlier as the temperature increased. However, within each temperature, no significant influence of the combined infection was detected. Our results demonstrate the complexity of coinfection in changing environmental conditions and indicate its involvement in disease development and severity as compared with infection by each of the pathogens alone.
