Zusammenfassung:In Sardinia (Italy), a filamentous virus was isolated from Radish (Raphanus sativus L.) and wild Radish (R. raphanistrum L.) showing mosaic, leaf distortion and stunting, and from Stock (Matthiola incana R. Br.) with leaf marbling and "flower-breaking". It was identified as Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV), "ordinary" strain through host range, length of particles (720-730 nm) and serology.
