This virus is widely distributed and causes an economically important disease of garlic. The symptoms include stripes of yellow mosaic and distorted leaves.

The encode proteins for viral replication (ORF1), coat protein (ORF5), a silencing suppressor (ORF6), as well as triple-gene block proteins (ORF2 + ORF3).
