Abstract: A roving survey was conducted in six taluks of Bagalkot districts during 2018-19 for the per cent disease incidence of cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) and aphids population in top three leaves. In the CMV infected plants, yellow to dark green mottling, crackling and downward curling were typical symptoms. This virus is transmitted by aphids in a non-persistent manner. During survey it was observed that, the disease incidence ranged from 13.33-66.66 per cent. Highest mean incidence of disease was noticed in Badami taluk (49.58%) whereas disease incidence lowest in Jamakhandi taluk (29.50%). More number of aphids population was observed in Badami (18.10) and least population in Jamakhandi (10.75).
