Abstract
Particles of California tobacco rattle virus (CTRV) were observed in thin sections of vascular elements of leaves showing oak leaf symptoms. At no time during this study were particles observed in mesophyl cells of these leaves. A peculiar chloroplast breakdown is described.
Samenvatting
Deeltjes van het Californisch ratelvirus waren te zien in ultradunne coupes van vaatweefsel in bladeren van enkele tabaksplanten, die eikebladsymptomen vertoonden. Virusdeeltjes werden nooit in de mesofylcellen van deze bladeren gevonden. Een opvallende degeneratie der chloroplasten wordt beschreven.
