Abstract
Virus-like particles and two types of inclusion bodies were found in cells of leaves of oats, Avena sativa L., and Canada bluegrass, Poa compressa L., infected with oat necrotic mottle virus. The particles and inclusion bodies were seen in pale green tissue and in most samples of dark green tissue of mottled, mature oat leaves, but were seen only in the pale green tissue of immature leaves. There was also evidence of infection in oat roots.Tubules and (or) vesicles occurred between the cell wall and the plasmalemma (boundary formation) in many mesophyll cells of infected, mature bluegrass and oat leaves. Three types of abnormal deposits, localized, extensive, and fibrillar, also occurred between the wall and the plasmalemma in many of these cells. The extensive and fibrillar deposits were more common in bluegrass than in oats.
