Abstract

Collections of tomato mosaic virus obtained from Utah and California produce a localized severe leaf and stem necrosis on Datura meteloides. After the streaked plant has stood sufficiently long to permit secondary growth to occur, a systemic diseased expression develops in a few of the plants. No reference to a similar development on Datura meteloides following inoculation with the tobacco mosaic virus was found in the literature.
