Genome sequence of Euphorbia mosaic virus from passionfruit and Euphorbia heterophylla in Florida

Abstract

Euphorbia mosaic virus (EuMV) was found in a symptomatic passionfruit (Passiflora edulis) plant from Homestead, Florida, USA, as well as in the symptomatic weed Euphorbia heterophylla. This is the first identification of EuMV in Florida and the United States and the first report of a natural infection of passionfruit by EuMV.
