| Abstract: | In the Netherlands a survey for pospiviroids was performed in ornamental plants from 2006 up to 2011. Tomato apical stunt viroid (TASVd) was the most frequently found pospiviroid, causing infections in Brugmansia sp., Cestrum sp., Lycianthes rantonnetii, Solanum jasminoides and Streptosolen jamesonii. In addition, five other pospiviroids were detected. In 2011 TASVd also was found in tomato plants in a single greenhouse. The genotype of this isolate was identical to the TASVd genotype found most frequently in ornamentals. This indicates that an ornamental species has been the source of inoculum for the tomato crop. |
