Nomenclature

Acronym

AntV

ICTV decimal code

14.0.T.1.001

Host range and symptoms

Natural host range and symptoms

Symptoms none.
• Anthriscus sylvestris, Angelica sylvestris, Carum carvi - symptomless.

Transmission

Transmitted by a vector; an insect; Cavariella aegopodii; Aphididae. Transmitted in a non-persistent manner. Virus transmitted by mechanical inoculation.

Geographical distribution

Found, but with no evidence of spread, in the Netherlands.

Experimental host range

Few (<3) families susceptible. Experimentally infected plants mostly show mottles, mosaics or symptomless.

Diagnostically susceptible host species and symptoms

• Ammi majus - interveinal chlorosis and systemic yellow mosaic.
• Anthriscus cerefolium - interveinal yellowing or mottling, necrotic striping and leaf rolling.
• Apium graveolens - chlorotic local lesions by some isolates.
• Chenopodium amaranticolor, C. quinoa - pin-point local lesions.

Diagnostically insusceptible host species

Nicotiana benthamiana, Phaseolus vulgaris.

Maintenance and propagation hosts

Ammi majus, Nicotiana pavicola.

Assay hosts (Local lesions or Whole plants)

Virions filamentous; not enveloped; usually flexuous; with a clear modal length; of 690 nm.

Replication

Replication does not depend on a helper virus.

Cytopathology

Virions found in leaves.

Taxonomy and relationships

Possible Carlavirus

Best tests for diagnosis
