Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) and Tomato mosaic virus (ToMV) are two principal viruses infecting tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill). N5 is a necrosis strain of ToMV. In this work, interference between these two virues was analyzed in tomato cv. Hezuo 903. Plants were first inoculated with CMV-Fny or CMV-Fny∆2b, respectively. 7 days postinoculation (dpi), a second challenge inoculation was performed with ToMV-N5. The results showed that plants can be protected against challenge with ToMV-N5 by initial CMV-Fny infection, but not by CMV-Fny2b. The accumulation of these three viruses in single and double infections was detected by real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (real-time RT-PCR) assays. The real-time RT-PCR values indicated that ToMV-N5 accumulation was significantly suppressed by double infection with CMV-Fny in the second true leaves. The interaction between PVX and ToMV was further studied. The host reaction of PVX-BJ and ToMV-N5 double infections was almost the same as in ToMV-N5 singly infections. Based on above results, we speculate that the 2b protein may be an important determinant involved in CMV-mediated regulation of disease development caused by ToMV-N5 in tomato cv. Hezuo 903.
