Abstract

Dasheen mosaic virus (DMV), was identified by manual sap transmission, serological tests and by the presence of flexuous rod particles and pinwheel inclusions. It was recorded in the wild and cultivated aroids Alocasia macrorrhizos, A. micholitziana, Colocasia esculenta, C. Gigantea, Dieffenbachia spp. and Xanthosoma sp. which were found with symptoms during surveys in coastal Queensland.
