What are Viruses? – Small plant pathogens, 20-2000 nm (1 nm=25 millionth of an inch)

Viruses – Require host components and living cells to multiply (=replicate) – Can survive on surfaces for various times – Enter through wounds or via vectors
insects nematodes fungi HUMANS • propagation • tools • any touching

Viruses of Cacti and Succulents
• Difficult to work with due to gelatinous tissue • Distribution of viruses can be uneven in plants • Not a lot of research on these plant hosts
![Page 21: Deb Mathews - Cacti viruses](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042611/589eebaa1a28ab4a0f8b4889/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Viruses of Cacti and Succulents Cactus virus X
• Infects many species in Cactaceae: Cereus, Saguaro, Opuntia, Zygocactus and Hylocereus • Found worldwide • Symptoms range from none to distorted aereoles, deformed spines, necrosis, mottling • 3 main strains known to date • Transmitted by grafting, mechanical, plant contact • NOT transmitted by seed; NO known vector • Found in all plant parts including buds, flowers and fruit • Relatively high infection levels in most hosts

Viruses of Cacti and Succulents
Other Viruses • Zygocactus virus X, Schlumbergera virus X • Opuntia tobamovirus • Cactus 2 virus (carlavirus) • Saguaro cactus virus (carmovirus, sphere, AZ)

Management • No �cure� • Destroy infected stock • Avoid mechanical transmission: handling, tools, pots, remove plant debris • Decontaminate tools and surfaces with bleach, quaternary ammonium, chlorhexidine, etc (follow labels)
![Page 28: Deb Mathews - Cacti viruses](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042611/589eebaa1a28ab4a0f8b4889/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Avoidance/Testing Protocols
• Scout routinely for symptoms • Isolate particularly susceptible varieties • Eliminate hosts outside GH, weeds, landscape plants • Regular testing for most common pathogen/host combos • Collect younger leaves, with symptoms if available
