Abstract:
Garlic (Allium sativum) is infected by numerous viruses forming a viral-complex, which is widely distributed in the garlic production regions of Argentina. This work is the first report of the effect of two Allexivirus isolates, Garlic virus A (GarV-A) and Garlic virus C (GarV-C), on garlic yield. Garlic cvs. Morado-INTA and Blanco-IFFIVE were used in the experiments, and four treatments were evaluated: plants inoculated with GarV-A only, GarV-C only, virus-free plants (negative control), and plants infected with the virus-complex. Assays were performed in anti-aphid cages and in the field during 2002 and 2003. GarV-A caused significant reductions in bulb weight (14 to 32%) and diameter (6 to 11%) compared with the negative control in the two cultivars under both assay conditions. GarV-C caused less damage than GarV-A (15% in weight and 5% in diameter) with respect to the negative control in cv. Blanco-IFFIVE, and did not produce significant yield losses in cv. Morado-INTA in either year or under either assay condition.
