Abstract:	Plants of the soyabean cv. IAC-2 showing symptoms of bud blight in cent. Brazil were infected by CPSMV serotype I. The isolate was transmitted by the beetle Cerotoma arcuata but not through seeds. Biological and in vitro properties of the Brazilian isolate were typical of CPSMV. Significant reductions in plant height, grain yield, number of pods/plant and seed germination occurred in a field trial.
