Title:Alfalfa mosaic virus: coat protein-dependent initiation of infection
Authors:Bol, J.F.
Source:Mol. Plant Pathol. 2003, 4(1):1-8
Abstract:Economic importance: AMV is a significant pathogen in alfalfa and sweet clover and can spread from these forages to neighbouring crops like pepper, tobacco or soybean. The recent introduction of the soybean aphid (Aphis glycines) in the mid-west states of the USA has increased the incidence of AMV in soybean. AMV occurs world-wide in potato and is referred to as 'calico mosaic' because of its characteristic symptoms on the foliage. However, the economic importance of AMV in potato is limited.
