Abstract
Some barley yellow dwarf virus isolates obtained from cereal plants in Victoria, Australia, during 1985-1986 were serologically similar to the MAV isolate of W. F. Rochow, but distinct from it in being readily transmissible by the aphid Rhopalosiphum padi. Most serological comparisons used the Purdue culture of Rochow''s MAV, initially obtained from Cornell, but maintained by transfer by Sitobion avenae for 6 yr. However, detailed examination of the Purdue culture with monoclonal antibodies revealed that a change in its serological behavior had occurred during culture, although efficient transmission by S. avenae and not by R. padi had been maintained.Keywords
