Isolate Description

Location: Belgium (and the U.S.A).

Host of Isolate and Habitat Details
Source of isolate: Beta vulgaris.

Natural host and symptoms
Beta vulgaris — conspicuous veinal chlorosis.

Reference to Isolation Report
Roland (1948, and by Sylvester (1948).

Classification

This is a description of a plant virus at the species level with data on all virus properties from morphology to genome, replication, antigenicity and biological properties.

ICTVdB Virus Code: 00.039.0.61.001. Virus accession number: 39061001. Obsolete virus code: 39.0.1.T.001; superceded accession number: 3901t001.

Name, Synonyms and Lineage

ICTV approved acronym: BYNV. Virus has not been assigned to a particular genus. Virus is of the genus 00.039.0.01. Luteovirus in the family 00.039. Luteoviridae.

Virion Properties

Morphology

Virions consist of a capsid. Virus capsid is not enveloped, round with icosahedral symmetry. The capsid.

Nucleic Acid

The genome is not segmented and contains a single molecule of linear positive-sense, single-stranded RNA.

Proteins

The viral genome encodes structural proteins and non-structural proteins.

Lipids

Lipids are absent.

Biological Properties

Natural Host

Domain
Viral hosts belong to the Domain Eucarya.

Domain Eucarya
Kingdom Plantae.

Kingdom Plantae
Phylum Magnoliophyta (Angiosperms, Class Magnoliopsida (Dicotyledonae).

Class Magnoliopsida (Dicotyledonae)
Subclass CARYOPHYLLIDAE.

Transmission and Vector Relationships

Virus is transmitted by a vector. Virus is not transmitted by mechanical inoculation; not transmitted by seeds.

Vector Transmission:
Virus is transmitted by arthropods, by insects of the order Hemiptera, family Aphididae; Myzus persicae. Virus is transmitted in a persistent manner.

Experimental Hosts and Symptoms

Susceptible host species are found in the Family Chenopodiaceae. The following species were susceptible to experimental virus infection: Beta vulgaris, Beta vulgaris ssp. cicla.

Host:
Experimentally infected hosts mainly show symptoms of vein clearing.

Diagnostic Hosts

Diagnostic host species and symptoms:

Beta vulgaris, Beta vulgaris ssp. cicla — veinal chlorosis.

Maintenance and Propagation Hosts

Most commonly used maintenance and propagation host species are Beta vulgaris.

Assay Hosts

Host: Assay hosts (for Local lesions or Whole plants):
Beta vulgaris (W).

Geographical Distribution

The virus occurs in Belgium and the United States of America (California).

Comments

Pathogenicity tests indicate that this virus is distinct from tobacco yellow net (?) luteovirus.
