    Lisianthus (Eustoma russellianum) with virus infections were found field during the past decades in Taiwan. Nine different viruses have been identified in the past decade. Bean yellow mosaic virus (BYMV) was the first being detected in lisianthus, followed by Lisianthus necrosis virus (LNV), Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV), Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV), Broad bean wilt virus (BBWV), Tomato mosaic virus (ToMV), Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) , and Pepper veinal mottle virus (PVMV). Researchers have characterized most of these viruses in Taiwan serologically and molecularly. However, new viral diseases keep emerging in the field still. Some of the new lisianthus diseases caused by viruses, such as Carnation mottle virus (CarMV), Bidens mottle virus (BiMoV), and Pothos latent virus (PoLV), will be discussed in this seminar.
