| Abstract:
New findings of TSWV infections are reported on some hybrids and a cultivar of globe artichoke in Basilicata and Apulia (southern Italy). In some instances, the virus infected hybrid artichoke plants alone whereas, in the remaining cases it was accompanied by artichoke latent Potyvirus (ArLV). In pathogenicity tests, TSWV infected artichoke seedlings of the Nunhems hybrids 6372, 6374 and 6370 causing general stunting, chlorosis and reduction of leaf blade surface. | |
