Abstract

In the course of investigations into the virus susceptibility of Amaranthus bouchonii, a new adventive plant species first appearing in Hungary in 1979 we found that it was locally and systemically susceptible to nine viruses (belladonna mottle virus, broad bean wilt virus, cucumber mosaic virus, henbane mosaic virus, potato virus X, potato virus Y, tobacco rattle virus, tobacco ringspot virus, tomato mosaic virus), and locally susceptible to three viruses (beet necrotic yellow vein virus, tomato aspermy virus, zucchini yellow mosaic virus). The affinity of the plant in question to various viruses is very strong. Considering that Amaranthus bouchonii mostly occurs on ruderal areas where the various European autochtohonous and archaeophythonous virus susceptible plants are also encountered, its virus ecological importance is considerable.
