The occurrence of inclusion bodies in leaf epidermis cells of sandal affected with spike disease

  • Published:
Netherlands Journal of Plant Pathology Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

Round or slightly oval inclusion bodies were found in low numbers in epidermal cells of spiked (expressing spike disease symptoms) leaves. They could not be demonstrated in epidermal tissue of apparently healthy leaves. The intracellular inclusions stained with phloxine and rose bengal. Their relationship to sandal spike virus is discussed.
