- Abstract
This article is the first report of a Parietaria mottle virus isolate with a distinct genome sequence and host range, capable of producing disease in pepper. During the summer of 2004, bell pepper (Capsicum annuum) growing in a plastic-covered greenhouse, Almeria (south-east Spain) showed necrotic stems and fruit with brown patches and corky rings on the surface. Mechanical inoculation of sap from the fruits produced necrotic etching on leaves of Nicotiana tabacum cv. Xanthi, consistent with symptoms produced by members of the genus Ilarvirus. Mechanical transmission from infected N. tabacum to 1-month-old bell pepper seedlings produced symptoms on stems and fruit, similar to those originally observed on field plants.
