Host range and symptoms

Natural host range and symptoms

Symptoms vary seasonally.
• Vicia faba - necrotic and chlorotic spots, rings, streaks.

Transmission

Virus transmitted by mechanical inoculation.

Geographical distribution

Spreads in Japan.

Experimental host range

Sources of host-range data

Inouye et al. (1968).

Physical and biochemical properties

Properties of particles in sap

TIP: 55-60 °C. LIV: 8 days. DEP: log₁₀ minus 3-4. Leaf sap contains few virions.

Purification method

Nakasone and Inouye (1977).

Particle morphology

Virions rod-shaped; not enveloped; usually straight; with a clear modal length; of 250 nm (& 150); 25 nm wide. Axial canal obvious. Basic helix obvious.

Cytopathology

Virions found in all parts of the host plant; in cytoplasm. Inclusions present in infected cells; are amorphous X-bodies; they contain virions.

Taxonomy and relationships

Furovirus
