Patent Summary
A cultivated *Cucumis melo* plant is provided exhibiting resistance to Melon Yellowing associated Virus (MYaV), conferred by a homozygous or heterozygous introgression fragment on chromosome 6. This fragment originates from a wild *C. melo* plant with an average MYaV disease score $\ge$ 8 (scale 1–9) and is obtainable by crossing a cultivated melon with plants from seeds deposited under NCIMB 41966 or NCIMB 41969. The fragment is detectable via a molecular marker assay identifying SNP markers mME15090 (CC/AC at nucleotide 71 of SEQ ID NO: 1) and mME12135 (AA/AG at nucleotide 71 of SEQ ID NO: 3), plus at least two markers from either: {mME40332 (GG/AG, SEQ ID NO: 2), mME28908 (TT/AT, SEQ ID NO: 4), mME36531 (TT, SEQ ID NO: 5), mME9692 (AA/AT, SEQ ID NO: 6), mME5065
