Abstract: Four samples of diseased Cucumis melo var. Saccharinus showing stunting,small leaf,mosaic symptom were collected in Ledong,Hainan Province,China. PCR product of expected size was amplified from three samples using the begomovirus degenerate primer pair PA/PB,cloned and sequenced. The size of the PCR product was 509 bp. Phylogenetic analysis showed that HA1 clustered with SLCPHV-[Taiwan]and SLCPHV while HA3 and HA4 clustered with SLCCNV-[Melon]and SLCCNV-[Hn61],which indicated that the three samples of C. melo var. Saccharinus were infected likely with different species of geminiviruses.
