- Observation Two previously uncharacterized viruses were isolated, one each from C. argentea and C. moschata.
- Observation Telfairia mosaic virus and amaranthus mosaic virus were identified and confirmed on the basis of host range, symptomatology, insect transmission and particle morphology.
- Observation Amaranthus mosaic virus and celosia mosaic virus were recorded from all farms and were the most prevalent viruses.
- Observation Amaranthus mosaic virus incidence was 19.7% at Amuwo Odofin.
- Observation Amaranthus mosaic virus incidence was 0.7% at Tejuoso.
- Observation Amaranthus mosaic virus incidence was 0.6% at Abule Ado.
- Observation Celosia mosaic virus incidence was 0.6% at Tejuoso.
- Observation Celosia mosaic virus incidence was 1.4% at Abule Ado.
