Synonyms
Haemanthus spp.
Family: Amaryllidaceae Ornamental
Capsicum chlorosis orthotospovirus (CaCV)
Taxonomic position
Genus: Orthotospovirus Family: Tospoviridae
CaCV infection occurs naturally in plants of Haemanthus multiflorus at Taiwan (Chen et al. 2009, 2012). The virus-infected football lily plants exhibit chlorotic ringspot symptoms. The virus is transmitted by thrips vectors in a persistent-propagative manner, and also by mechanical sap-inoculation. For more details of CaCV, refer to Capsicum annuum.
Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV)
Taxonomic position
Genus: Cucumovirus Family: Bromoviridae
CMV infection in plants of Haemanthus multiflorus was reported from Taiwan (Chen and Chiang 2015). The virus-infected football lily plants exhibit yellow spot symptoms. The virus is transmitted by a number of aphid vectors in a non-persistent manner, and also by mechanical sap-inoculation to a large number of host plants. For more details of CMV, refer to Cucumis sativus.
