Abstract
From different genotypes of soybean included in the breeding program of the Faculty of Agricultural Sciences in Zagreb seventeen isolates of soybean mosaic potyvirus (SMV) were isolated. Their identity was established by host range study, morphology of virus particles and serology. On the basis of reactions provoked in specific soybean differential cultivars the isolates were classified in respective SMV strains established by Cho and Goodman (1979). Most of the isolates belong to the least (Gl) or less virulent (G2) strains indicating a low degree of resistance to SMV of the soybean cultivars investigated. From the introduced genotypes three highly virulent SMV isolates were also obtained, which belong to G7 and G5 virulent strains. It is suggested that in soybean breeding programme more attention should be paid to resistance to SMV.
