Abstract:The virus isolated from Vigna radiata plants showing mottling and mosaic symptoms, was transmitted by mechanical inoculation, the beetles Colposcelis signata and Balisepta fulvipes and through infected seed. Purified preparations contained isometric particles c. 28 nm diam. with a UV absorption spectrum typical of nucleoproteins with a A260/A280 of c. 1.53. Indonesian and Thai isolates showed identical serological reactions but did not react serologically with some other beetle-borne viruses. The virus could be detected at high concn by ELISA and mechanical inoculation tests with whole seeds, and at low concn from seeds from which the coats had been removed.
