Abstract
Serological relationships of brinjal necrotic mosaic virus (BNMV), a s train of tobacco mosaic virus(TMV) causing necrotic mosaic disease of brinjal in India to other TMV strains was investigated by immunosorben t electron microscopy (ISEM), The intensity of trapping and decoration revealed a close relationship of BNMV to TMV-D, TMV-U1 and TMV-WU1 st rains, and a distant relationship to TMV-A1 and TMV-P11 strains. There was a negligible relationship to TMV-P14, tomato mosaic virus (ToMV) and cucumber green mottle mosaic virus (CGMMV). Therefore, BNMV is pro posed to be distinct from the previously reported TMV-A1 strain of bri njal.
