Abstract

Celery mosaic virus (CeMV), member of genus Potyvirus, is reported for the first time in Indonesia, from celery plants (Apium graveolens) in a vegetable field at Berastagi, North Sumatera Province. The plants possessed mosaic and vein clearing symptoms on the leaves as typical of CeMV infection. Virus incidence was confirmed by RT-PCR using degenerate potyvirus primer which amplified partial coat protein and 3’-UTR of the viral genome. Phylogenetic tree analysis placed Indonesian CeMV isolates in one separated clade within CeMV group and shared 96.5%–96.7% nucleotide identity with exemplar isolate of CeMV.
