Résumé
Un potyvirus etait isole des plants d'arachide de Bambara
(Vigna subterranea) eleves sous serre vitree. Ces
plants provenaient de semences obtenues de Zimbabwe. Les
plants infectes montraient un arret de croissance et une
decoloration foliaire. La cause de la maladie etait identifiee
comme etant la fatigue due au virus de marbrure d'arachide.
Ceci etait du a la reaction de l'hote, a la serologie, aux
proprietes de la seve brute, au type d'inclusions du cylindre
et de caracteristiques de transmission de la maladie. La race
etait par consequent denommee virus de marbrure d'arachide de
Bambara.
Mots Clés
Virus de racine noire d'haricot, virus de la mosaique commune, virus du niebe transmis par les aphides, virus de marbrure d'arachide

Identification and Characterisation of a Potyvirus of Bambara Groundnut
Dijkstra, E.; Keesen, M.; Brink, D.; Peters, D. & Lohuis, H.
Abstract
A potyvirus was isolated from Bambara groundnut (Vigna
subterranea (L.) Verdc.) plants raised in a glasshouse
from seeds obtained from Zimbabwe. Infected plants showed
stunting and foliar discolouration. The cause of the disease
was identified to be a strain of peanut mottle virus. This was
based on host reaction, serology, properties in crude sap,
type of cylindrical inclusions and transmission
characteristics. The strain was, consequently, named the
Bambara groundnut strain of peanut mottle virus.
Keywords
Bean black root virus, bean common mosaic virus, cowpea aphid-borne virus, peanut mottle virus
