Abstract

Distribution in Australia and seed transmission of Tobacco streak virus in Parthenium hysterophorus. Plant Dis. 93:708-712. Tobacco streak virus (TSV) was found to commonly occur in Parthenium hysterophorus, as symptomless infections, in central Queensland, Australia across a large area infested with this weed. Several isolates of TSV collected across the geographic range of P. hysterophorus were found to share identical coat protein sequence with each other and with TSV from crop plants in the same area. Seed transmission of TSV in P. hysterophorus was found to occur at rates of 6.8 to 48%. There was almost no change in the rate of TSV seed transmission when P. hysterophorus seed was stored for up to 241/2 months. Implications of this relationship between TSV and P. hysterophorus for the development of virus disease epidemics in surrounding crops are discussed. © 2009 The American Phytopathological Society.
