Abstract
Cowpea chlorotic mottle virus (CCMV, bromovirus group) was isolated from Desmodium heterocarpon and Clitoria ternatea plants growing in experimental plots at the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture, Ibadan, Nigeria. It was identified by serology, particle morphology, pH sensitivity, and analyses of viral coat protein and nucleic acids. In reciprocal agar-gel diffusion tests, the CCMV-Nigerian isolate and the type CCMV strain were found to be serologically distinct. This is the first report of the occurrence of a virus resembling CCMV outside of the United States and Costa Rica
