Host of Isolate and Habitat Details
Source of
isolate: Solanum tuberosum.
Natural host and symptoms
Solanum tuberosum chlorotic local
lesions on older leaves, necrotic on younger, systemic (top) necrosis (Clinch,
1941). Stored tubers develop necrosis in the cortex and pith with irregular
brown or sunken patches on the surface.

The genome has a base ratio of 25 % guanine; 30 % adenine; 24 % cytosine; 21 % uracil.
GenBank records for nucleotide sequences; complete genome sequences.
The viral genome encodes structural proteins and non-structural proteins. Virions consist of 1 structural protein(s).
Transcription: The virus codes for 5 ORF(s).
Coding Strategy of Segment 1: Sequence has a gene block. Sequence has triple gene block sequence (TGB). Encodes proteins involved in cell to cell movement.

Vector Transmission:
Virus is transmitted by arthropods, by insects
of the order Hemiptera, family Aphididae; Myzus persicae. Virus is
transmitted in a non-persistent manner; requires, for vector transmission,
a helper virus (any potyvirus, such as potato viruses A and Y; Kassanis and
Govier, 1971a;b).
Experimentally infected insusceptible Hosts: Families containing insusceptible hosts: Commelinaceae. Species inoculated with virus that do not show signs of susceptibility: Tinantia erecta.
Capsicum annuum, C. frutescens necrotic local lesions then epinasty, systemic mosaic or necrosis, young plants killed.
Nicotiana glutinosa light green mottle with dark green vein-banding.
Lycopersicon esculentum small chlorotic local lesions.
Nicotiana tabacum cvs White Burley and Xanthi-nc, Datura stramonium and Petunia sp. systemic infection but usually symptomless.
Histopathology: Virus can be best detected in all parts of the host plant. Virions are found in the cytoplasm (sometimes in dense aggregates).

ICTVdB - The Universal Virus Database, developed for the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) by Dr Cornelia Büchen-Osmond, is written in DELTA. The virus descriptions in ICTVdB are coded by ICTV members and experts, or by the ICTVdB Management using data provided by the experts, the literature or the latest ICTV Report. The character list is the underlying code. All virus descriptions are based on the character list and natural language translations from the encoded descriptions are automatically generated and formatted for display on the Web.
