A virus reported earlier to cause a green mosaic disease of eggplant in Nigeria was studied in more details. Its filamentous particles with a normal length of 820 nm reacted in immunoelectron microscopical tests strongly with the homologous antiserum and less strongly with antisera to dioscorea green banding mosaic, groundnut eyespot, zucchini yellow mosaic viruses and to a tomato potyvirus isolate from Taiwan. No reactions were seen with antisera to 25 other potyviruses. Several new host plants were identified. Infected cells contained cylindrical inclusions with scrolls and short curved laminated aggregates and clusters of small vesicles with electron-dense content. Host range and serological reactivities differentiate the virus for which the name eggplant green mosaic virus is suggested from all potyvir0611us so far k
