Occurrence of a Strain of Tobacco Streak Virus in North Carolina. G. V. Gooding, Jr., Department of Plant Pathology, North Carolina State University, Raleigh 27607; Phytopathology 61:1303-1304. DOI: 10.1094/Phyto-61-1303.

A virus isolated from burley tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) was similar to tobacco streak virus (TSV) in regard to host range, symptomatology, thermal inactivation point, dilution end point, and aging in vitro. It was related serologically but not identical to the type strain of TSV, and did not cross-protect against the type strain (ATCC-PV49).
