Isolate Description

Location: France.

Host of Isolate and Habitat Details
Source of isolate: Euonymus japonica.

Natural host and symptoms
Euonymus japonica, E. japonica var. microphylla — fasciated stems.

Reference to Isolation Report

Classification

This is a description of a plant virus at the species level.

ICTVdB Virus Code: 01.062.0.85.017. Virus accession number: 62085017. Obsolete virus code: 62.U.P.0.017; superceded accession number: 62up0017.

Name, Synonyms and Lineage

ICTV approved acronym: EFV. Virus has not been assigned to a particular genus. Virus is of the genus Nucleorhabdovirus; of the family 01.062. Rhabdoviridae; of the order 01. Mononegavirales.

Virion Properties

Morphology

Virions consist of an envelope and a nucleocapsid. Virus capsid is enveloped. Virions are bullet-shaped. Capsid/nucleocapsid is elongated with helical symmetry.

Nucleic Acid

The genome is not segmented and contains a single molecule of linear single-stranded RNA.

Proteins

The viral genome encodes structural proteins and non-structural proteins.

Replication cycle Virions accumulate in the cell nucleus.

Biological Properties

Natural Host

Domain
Viral hosts belong to the Domain Eucarya.

Domain Eucarya
Kingdom Plantae.

Kingdom Plantae
Phylum Magnoliophyta (Angiosperms, Class Magnoliopsida (Dicotyledonae).

Experimental Hosts and Symptoms

Susceptible host species are found in the Family Celastraceae. The following species were susceptible to experimental virus infection: Euonymus japonica, Euonymus japonica var. microphylla.

Geographical Distribution

The virus is found, but with no evidence of proliferation, in France.

Comments

It is not known if this virus is related to a virus that occurs in Euonymus japonica with vein-yellowing and chlorotic leaf spotting, but no fasciation, in the formar Yugoslavia (PlesHe and EricH, 1980).
