【 摘 要 】

Family Cucurbitaceae is a member the plant propagates that have an important role in agriculture particularly in the subsector of vegetable plants. However, the production plant of the family Cucurbitaceae is declining each year. Cucumber, Watermelon and Pumpkin plants those are included in the family Cucurbitaceae. Decrease in crop production is caused by virus attacks that attack plants through an insect vector Whitefly (B. tabaci). This research was carried out in February-September 2018 Greenhouse in the Faculty of Agriculture University of North Sumatera, Medan. This research aims to know the ability of Whitefly (B. tabaci) in the transmit viruses and the influence of lice inoculation feeding period against the widespread symptoms of virus attacks on some of the Cucurbitaceae plant. This research was compiled in a random Design Complete with two factors, namely: 1. The type of crop that is Cucumber, Watermelon and Pumpkin, 2. Inoculation Time is 24 hours and 48 hours. The results showed that the type of plant and the Time Period of Incubation and Inoculation affects the Severity of Disease in plant experiment.
