- Observation Infected Pelita 8 and Seret chili pepper cultivars showed yellow mosaic, leaf curl, green mosaic, dwarf, and cupping upward or downward symptoms.
- Observation A specific DNA fragment of 912 bp was amplified from 4 chili pepper samples.
- Observation Four sequences obtained had highest homology of 96% and 97% with Pepper yellow leaf curl Indonesia virus-Java and PYLCIV-KrthAl, respectively.
- Intervention effect Infection by different virus isolates did not significantly affect disease severity.
- Intervention effect Silica application delayed symptom development of yellow leaf curl disease in chili pepper compared with no silica.
- Intervention effect Silica applied to the soil increased the total silica content in chili pepper plants.
