First record of Bean yellow mosaic virus infecting a member of the orchid genus Dactylorhiza
Plant Pathology 56 (2), 344-344
Abstract: A sample of Dactylorhiza foliosa showing symptoms of chlorotic mottle and streaking was examined for viruses infecting orchids and tested positive only for Bean yellow mosaic virus (BYMV). Examination by transmission electron microscopy revealed the presence of potyvirus-like particles, measuring ca. 750 nm in length. Further confirmation was achieved using RT-PCR analysis and infection of indicator plants.
