Abstract

Peanut stripe potyvirus was detected in soyabeans in all of the major production areas of Taiwan, where it seems to occur at least as frequently as soybean mosaic potyvirus. Several lines of the AVRDC soyabean germplasm collection and of locally grown soyabean cultivars were immune to this virus. Significant yield reductions of up to 90% occurred in susceptible cultivars. The 100-seed wt was reduced by up to 50%. Seeds of plants artificially inoculated with the virus up to the R1 stage were abnormally discoloured. A low percentage of seed transmission (2%) was observed only in seeds collected from 1 of 3 soyabean cultivars (KS-8) which had been inoculated at the earliest (V-1) stage of growth
