Rhabdovirus in Laburnum anagyroides suffering from vein yellowing disease

Abstract
Bacilliform particles characteristic of plant rhaboviruses were found in ultrathin sections of Laburnum anagyroides growing in a park in Zagreb (Yugoslavia). Specimens of Laburnum in which bacilliform virions were present showed only yellowing along the main veins but not mosaic symptoms. Virus particles were found in yellow areas of the leaflets and were situated in the nucleus as well as in the cytoplasm. Results of this investigation support the opinion of Schultz and Harrap (1975) that the vein yellowing symptoms on L. anagyroides are provoked by a rhabdovirus named by them laburnum yellow vein virus.
