Occurrence of Carnation Vein Mottle and Cucumber Mosaic Viruses on Carnations in Yugoslavia

Carnation vein mottle virus (CarVMV) was isolated from glasshouse-grown Dianthus caryophyllus L. originatig from Split. The same virus was obtain also from D. caryophyllus, D. carthusianorum L. and D. barbatus L. which were grown in the open in zagreb and the surroundings. The virus was identified on the basis of host plants, non-persistent mode of transmission by Myzus persicae Sulz. and by analysis of ultrastructural changes in host cells. Light microscopic inclusions of CarVMV in the epidermal cells of Chenopodium quinoa Willd. and C. amaranticolor Coste et Reyn. leaves are described. Three forms of these inclusions are illustrated: granular bodies, bodies showing strong light diffraction and containing vacuoles, and aggregates of cylindrical cytoplasmic inclusions in the form of clusters of needles. Cucumber mosaic virus was isolated from D. caryophyllus which was grown in the open in Zagreb. This is the first finding of the two viruses on carnations in Yugoslasvia.
