Synonyms

turnip latent virus disease complex (part; MacKinnon, 1956).

Acronym

PhyVBV

ICTV decimal code

39.0.1.T.010

Host range and symptoms

Natural host range and symptoms

• Brassica campestris ssp. rapa - symptomless infection, even in complex with physalis mild chlorosis virus.

Transmission

Transmitted by a vector; an insect; Myzus persicae; Aphididae. Transmitted in a persistent manner.

Experimental host range

Few (<3) families susceptible.

Diagnostically susceptible host species and symptoms

• Physalis floridana - usually symptomless but co-infection with this virus and physalis mild chlorosis (?) luteovirus induce chlorotic vein-netting.

Diagnostically insusceptible host species

Chenopodium album, Capsicum annuum, Datura metel, D. stramonium, Petunia × hybrida and Solanum tuberosum.

Assay hosts (Local lesions or Whole plants)

Physalis floridana (W).

Susceptible host species

• Brassica campestris ssp. rapa
• Physalis floridana

Insusceptible host species

• Capsicum annuum
• Chenopodium album

• Datura stramonium
• Petunia × hybrida
• Solanum tuberosum

Families containing susceptible hosts

• Cruciferae (1/1)
• Solanaceae (1/6)

Families containing insusceptible hosts

• Chenopodiaceae (1/1)
• Solanaceae (5/6)
