| Abstract | The effect caused by Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) and Broad bean wilt virus (BBWV) at single and mixed infections on the growth of pepper in the field has been studied. It has been found that pepper susceptibility depends on both virus type and cultivar of the plants, their age at the time of infection being a determinant factor. Virus infection affects the development of the plants during whole pepper growing period, but its effect is most strongly expressed when the plants are infected in earlier phases, from cotyledons to flower-bud formation, respectively. Most susceptible cultivar is “Shumenski ratund “, followed by “Zlaten medal“ and “ Sofiyska kapiya“. The investigation shows that CMV infection caused stronger effect and affects the plant habitues, while BBWV attacks the root system. The mixed infection has effect of interferention. |
