NEW ECONOMICALLY-IMPORTANT VIRUS AND VIRUS-LIKE DISEASES OF ORNAMENTAL PLANTS
Although hitherto undescribed viruses and virus-like pathogens are regularly reported to occur in ornamental crops (e.g.
Koenig, 1985; Lawson, 1989), few are sufficiently widespread and/or damaging to be considered economically-important.
More frequently, well-known viruses and some virus-like pathogens have significant deleterious effects on new or known hosts.
I consider here some relevant examples of each type.
