| Author: | M. Tošic |
| Abstract:
With pepper cv. Niška šipka plants infected with tobacco mosaic virus, showing stem and pod necrosis, the virus is present in root, stem and pod, but rarely in leaf petiole and very rarely in the leaf blade. With pepper cvs Sorokšari, California Wonder and Austriska kapija, infected with tobacco mosaic virus and showing necrotic spots on leaves, the virus is mainly restricted to the leaves with necrotic spots or mosaic and rarely present in stem and root. It is never present in leaves without mosaic or necrotic spots symptoms. The unequal distribution of tobacco mosaic virus in these pepper cultivars is one kind of "Partially systemic infection". | |
