Oncidium Sharry Baby orchids from nursery greenhouses in Buenos Aires, Argentina with viral symptoms were processed for transmission electron microscope observations. Two types of viral particles, morphologically different, were observed. The aim of this work is identification of viral particles infecting the orchids. Serological analysis and partial genome sequence confirmed the presence of Cymbidium mosaic virus (CymMV) and Odontoglossum ring spot virus (ORSV). To our knowledge this is the first report of ORSV and CymMV in Argentina.
