- Abstract
- The host range of Indian peanut clump virus (IPCV) was studied under natural infectious conditions on pearl millet, finger millet, sorghum, maize, wheat, barley, rice and groundnut plants sown in a IPCV-infested field and sampled at regular intervals. Plants were analyzed directly after sampling or transplanted in glasshouse for 6 weeks and than analyzed for virus presence in root and leaf apices by DAS-ELISA as well as for Polymyxa presence in roots. IPCV infects all graminaceous species test-ed with infection being detected already within 12 days of sowing. The mean rate of infection during the rainy season was respectively for wheat: 92 %, barley: 69 %, maize: 38 %, finger millet: 29 %, sorghum: 26 %, groundnut: 22 %, rice: 4 % and finally pearl millet: 3 %. Depending on the species, the virus migrated from roots to shoots in all or only few infected plants or was never detected in leaves. Wheat, barley and groundnut presented symptoms.
