Garlic common latent virus
Family : Betaflexiviridae
Genus : Carlavirus
Acronym : GarCLV
Introduction
First reported in Allium sativum (garlic) based on serology and nucleic acid properties. It is symptomless in garlic but induces severe yellowing and mosaic when in mixture with other potyviruses such as Onion yellow dwarf virus and Leak yellow stripe virus.
Major Diseases
Non Symptomatic
Geographical Distribution
Karnataka, Gujarart, Delhi, Uttarakhand and probably where ever garlic is grown.
Particle Morphology
Filamentous viruses particle measure 425-480 x 12 nm.
Transmission Method
Virus transmitted by mechanical inoculation.
Detection
ELISA and RT-PCR.
Host Range and Symptomatology
| Host | Symptoms |
| Allium sativum (garlic) | Mild to severe mosaic symptoms |
| A. ampeloprasum var. holmense | Mild to severe mosaic symptoms |
