Abstract

REICHEL, Helena. Flexuous virus-like particles isolated from a Canna edulis Ker. plant affected by chlorosis in Colombia. Agron. colomb. [online]. 2007, vol.25, n.2, pp.330-332. ISSN 0120-9965.

Canna edulis plants showing foliar chlorotic symptoms were obtained from the locality of Huila (Colombia). Filamentous, flexuous virus-like particles of ca. 600 nm x 10 nm were observed by electron microscopy. This is the first report of potex-like filamentous particles infecting Canna edulis in Colombia.

Keywords : plant pathology; filamentous particles.
