Abstract

SummaryEnzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)‐based surveys of the occurrence of five barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) serotypes (MAV, PAV and SGV in “Group 1”; RPV and RMV in “Group 2”) in CIMMYT bread wheat nurseries and other small grain crops in various locations world‐wide were undertaken in 1988, 1989 and 1990. The objective was to investigate the relative occurrence of BYDV serotypes in areas relevant to CIMMYT cereal breeding programs. Overall, MAV and PAV serotypes predominated in the samples collected, though their relative frequencies depended on the location. SGV serotypes were uncommon in most locations. Group 2 serotypes occurred widely, but RMV serotypes were more common than RPV serotypes.
