Abstract
Sri Lankan cassava mosaic virus (SLCMV) is one of the viruses that cause cassava mosaic disease. Strong mosaic symptoms on a cassava plant in the Northern Territory tested positive in begomovirus specific PCR testing. The DNA sequence of the amplicon was 96.38% similar (over 528 bp) to SLCMV, a result confirmed by sequencing genomic DNA. This is the first record of SLCMV in Australia, and outside of Asia.
期刊介绍:
Australasian Plant Disease Notes is an international journal for publication of short reports from all countries which describe original research that transcends national boundaries. All aspects of plant pathology are covered including new geographical records of diseases or pathogens, new pathogens or pathogen strains, taxonomic papers, quarantine notes, disease management and diagnostic methods. Australasian Plant Disease Notes is a publication of the Australasian Plant Pathology Society.
