Abstract
Two distinct types of symptoms, severe yellow mosaic and chlorotic vein-banding, were observed on Bougainvillea spectabilis at two different locations in India. Electron microscopy revealed bacilliform virus particles in leaf samples from both places. PCR amplification, cloning, sequencing and sequence analysis of reverse transcriptase and ribonuclease H coding region in open reading frame 3 indicated that two distinct badnaviruses are associated with B. spectabilis in India.
