Abstract
In a field of Phascolus vulgaris var. Blue Lake, planted contiguous to a field of Gladiolus spp., a gradient infection of mosaic (Bean Virus 2 of Pierce, 1934) extended from the row nearest the gladioli to a distance of about 150 ft. The gladioli were the probable source of the virus. The correlation between high mosaic % in the bean planting and the nearness of gladiolus plants was very marked. The same virus correlation was seen whenever snap beans were exposed to commercial plantings of gladioli. Two representative occurrences are described.Keywords
