Tobacco streak virus (TSV) is an emerging menace in cotton growing belts of Tamil Nadu, found to be mechanically transmissible to 27 hosts with varying symptoms of chlorotic local lesions, necrotic lesions and systemic symptoms. Necrotic lesions and chlorotic lesions were observed on Gossypium barbadense within 5 to 8 days after inoculation. The highest virus titre was achieved with the host plants Vigna unguiculata and Chenopodium amaranticolor which was performed by DAS-ELISA.
