Abstract

Cauliflower mosaic virus (ClMV) has some characteristics of both non-persistent and persistent aphid-borne viruses. It has been shown that ClMV is a true nonpersistent virus, and it is suggested that the unusual features of its, transmission characteristics are due to its relative stability and its distribution in the tissues of the plant. These considerations lead to more precise definitions of the terms "persistent" and "non-persistent".
