Abstract
In 2009, Asiatic hybrid lily plants with mosaic symptoms were observed in Akita Prefecture, Japan. In a RT-PCR assay, using universal primers for the detection of potyviruses, a potyvirus different from Lily mottle virus was detected. The conserved area of the virus coat protein (CP) shared the highest amino acid (aa) sequence similarity (95.7%) to that of Rembrandt tulip breaking virus (ReTBV). As far as we know, this report is the first on the occurrence of ReTBV in Japan and on the full aa sequence of the CP for this virus.
