Abstract
In the course of the present investigations virus isolates from spontaneously infected Aristolochia clematitis (Ac), Aristolochia durior (Ad), Aristolochia elegans (Ae) originating from Hungary, as well as an isolate from Aristolochia macrophylla (Am) found in Jugoslavia were identified as cucumber mosaic virus (CMV). In addition, two further isolates found in Aquilegia vulgaris (Aq) and Scopolia carniolica (Sc) in Jugoslavia also proved to belong to CMV. Identification was based on experiments with test plants, examination of serological and physical properties, plant-protection tests and experiments on transmission of the isolates by means of aphid Myzus persicae (stylet-borne manner). It is likely that isolates Am, Aq, Sc, and also Ac, Ad and Ae belong to the “green” strain of CMV.
Species A. elegans, A. macrophylla and S. carniolica are reported for the first time, at least for the European area, as being spontaneously infected with CMV in nature. None of the six plant species under the investigation were known till now as natural hosts to CMV in the country where the specimens were collected.
