Summary The mode of inheritance for resistance to zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV) in Cucurbita moschata was determined from F1, F2, and backcross progenies of the cross between the susceptible cultivar Waltham Butternut from the U.S.A. and a resistant inbred line of the Menina cultivar from Portugal. Resistance to ZYMV in Menina was conferred by a single dominant gene designated Zym.
