Abstract:Purified virus preparations made from nettlehead-diseased hop plants, or from Chenopodium quinoa, to which the virus was transmitted by inoculation of sap, contained polyhedral virus particles of 30 mμ diameter which were identified serologically as arabis mosaic virus (AMV). There were serological differences between AMV isolates from hop and from strawberry, and also differences in host range and in symptoms caused in C. quinoa and C. amaranticolor. AMV was always associated with nettlehead disease. The nematode Xiphinema diversicaudatum occurred in small numbers in most hop gardens, but was numerous where nettlehead disease was spreading rapidly. Preparations from nettlehead-affected hops also contained a second virus, serologically related to Prunus necrotic ringspot virus (NRSV), in mild and virulent forms which infected the same range of test plants but showed some serological differences. Mild isolates did not protect C. quinoa plants against infection by virulent isolates. Hop seedlings inoculated with virulent isolates of NRSV developed symptoms indistinguishable from those of split leaf blotch disease. Latent infection with NRSV was prevalent in symptomless hop plants. Nettlehead disease is apparently associated with dual infection of AMV and virulent isolates of NRSV. An unnamed virus with rod-shaped particles 650 mμ long was common in hop and was transmitted by inoculation of sap to herbaceous plants. Cucumber mosaic virus was obtained from a single plant of Humulus scandens Merr.
