Purification and Serology of Tulare Apple Mosaic Virus

Abstract

GILMER1, after comparing the woody host range and sap transmission of several virus isolates which caused mosaics in apple (Malus spp.), designated the one which could be mechanically transmitted to herbaceous plants Tulare apple mosaic virus (TAMV). Our TAMV isolate originated from a single primary lesion on the systemic host Nicotiana tabacum L. var. Connecticut Havana 423 inoculated with leaf tissue taken from an apple seedling bud-inoculated with TAMV stock kindly furnished by Dr. Gilmer. This isolate originated from Yarwood2 and retained the symptomatological, host range and stability characteristics described by him.
