South America. This pathogen is included in the potato virus Y group (Potyvirus) and is one of the most important viruses that attacks the Brassicaceae. The host range of TuMV is broad and includes 39 dicotyledonous families (Boswell and Gibbs 1983; Edwardson and Christie 1986).Since the 1920s, outbreaks of TuMV have occurred throughout the world resulting in substantial damage to both plants and plant products. Today, this pathogen is well established in many regions of the world and seriously plagues annual crops. For example, Feng et al.(1990) revealed that 69% of the crucifer crops sampled around Beijing, China were infected with this virus. In a recent survey of plant virologists from 28 countries and regions, TuMV was ranked second to cucumber mosaic as the most important virus infecting field-grown vegetables (Tomlinson 1987).
