Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV000) is a highly infectious plant pathogen with an RNA genome. It has a global distribution and one of the widest host ranges among plant viruses, infecting vegetables like cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, and ornamentals such as Narcissus. CMV is primarily transmitted by aphids in a stylet-borne manner, with an acquisition period of 5–10 seconds and an inoculation period of about a minute. It can also spread through seeds, parasitic weeds like Cuscuta (dodder), and occasionally by mechanical means.
