Abstract

A mosaic disease of centro (Centrosema pubescens) in Queensland was shown by physical, morphological and serological comparisons of the causal virus to be due to infection by a strain of passionfruit woodiness virus (PWV). This strain produced an almost latent infection of passionfruit (Passifiora edulis) and although it had a similar leguminous host range to PWV, symptoms were sometimes distinguishable. Naturally infected centro and
Passifiora suberosa, growing in close association, each carried a characteristic and easily distinguishable strain of PWV.
