Abutilon pictum
Family: Malvaceae Ornamental
Abutilon mosaic virus (AbMV)
Synonyms
Abutilon infectious variegation virus
Taxonomic position
Genus: Begomovirus Family: Geminiviridae
Geographical distribution
AbMV infection in plants of Abutilon striatum was reported from South and Central American region, Mexico, Germany, Brazil, Argentina, Hawaii, India, and New Zealand (de Souza and Kim 1990; Wege et al. 2000; Lyttle and Guy 2004; De La Torre-Almaraz et al. 2006; Nelson 2008; Paprotka et al. 2010; Jyothsna et al. 2013).
Symptoms and host(s)
The virus-infected redvein flowering maple plants exhibit symptoms of heavily bright whitish- to yellow-mottled leaves, a yellow mosaic resembling variegation. The yellow patches are sharply delimited by leaf veins, giving them an angular appearance. Symptoms may vary seasonally depending on light intensity (Nelson 2008).
AbMV has a very wide host range, and the hosts and reactions are as follows: Abutilon spp., Sida spp., Hibiscusspp.,...
