| Description |
The status of bean yellow mosaic virus (BYMV) in 32 cultivars of Gladiolus was investigated by examining the plants visually as
well as by using the techniques like ELISA. Incidence of the disease was found to range from 0% to 100% on visual basis, whereas
ELISA revealedalmost 100% infection in plants, which were showing the symptoms. Almost 30% of the symptomless Gladiolus
plants were also the carrier of the virus. Plants foundpositive for BYMV by ELISA were confirmedto carry the virus with immuno
electron microscopy, cytopathological studies and by RT-PCR analysis employing primers specific to BYMV. The present
investigation revealed the wide spread occurrence of BYMV in various Gladiolus cultivars whether with or without symptoms and
the study suggested that symptomless plants must be examined for the presence of the virus before using them for healthy propagule
production.
