The number of virus species infecting pepper crops and their incidences has increased considerably over the past 30 years. This is probably due to a combination of factors, including the expansion and intensification of pepper cultivation, the increased global trade of plant material carrying viruses and vectors to new locations, and climate change expanding the geographic range suitable for the viruses and vectors. About 68 viruses are known to infect peppers worldwide. Most pepper viruses are distributed worldwide with the exception of viruses that have been reported only in certain geographic areas. Virus-infected peppers generally cxhibit a variety of symptoms, the most common of which are mosaic, mottle, necrosis and leaf distortion with consequent reductions in crop growth and yield. More than half of known pepper viruses are transmitted by aphids, and the other common pepper viruses are transmitted by whiteflies, thrips, or by contact and/or through the soil. In Serbia, the presence of five viruses: Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), Potato virus Y (PVY), Tomato spotted wilt orthotospovirus (TSWV), Alfalfa mosaic virus (AMV) and Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV), with the prevalence of CMV and PVY. Some of these viruses cause considerable yield losses. For each economically important virus in Serbia, control measures are reported here.
