Abstract

Cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) belong to Caulimovirus is one of the most important causal agent of viral diseases. During autumn and late winter of 2012, 180 canola (Brassica napus) leaf samples were randomly collected from fields around Dezful region in Iran. DAS-ELISA test proved CaMV presence serologically in some samples. RT-PCR reaction using specific primers confirmed ELISA tests. Seven samples out of total samples (3.9%) showed CaMV infection using serological and RT-PCR assays, hence incidence of CaMV in canola fields in Dezful area was confirmed.
