Abstract
The evidence that PepMV is causing commercial losses is largely anecdotal.
Therefore, trials were conducted during two growing seasons in four European countries to investigate the economic impact of PepMV. Crops were infected with the mild PepMV isolate 1066 and with the aggressive isolate PCH-06/104 in the first and second growing season, respectively.
Isolate 1066 caused no measurable loss of yield or downgrading due to reduction in fruit quality compared with non-infected tomato plants.
The aggressive isolate PCH-06/104 caused an overall yield loss of 4% when compared to non-infected controls (P=0.028). However, the main effect of PCH-06/104 was to reduce the yield of Class I fruits by approximately 14% compared with non-infected plants (P<0.001). An economic model has been produced using these data.
The effects of PepMV on yield were shown to cause considerable economic losses.
