Abstract
Sugar-beet plants, infected with beet yellows virus (BYV, closterovirus group) or beet mild yellowing virus (BMYV, luteovirus group) develop symptoms on the inoculated leaves on which aphids infected the plant. Symptoms develop also on the systemically-infected leaves to which virus has been transported via the phloem. Systemic infection occurs in the leaves which have just, or not yet appeared at the moment of infection of the plant. All other, older leaves remain uninfected. The infection-date can be estimated by assessing the date of appearance of the oldest systemicallyinfected leaf of a plant. This approach was tested in the field and gave good results.
