An inapparent infection with a probable picornavirus in several stocks of laboratory reared and naturally occurring populations of Dacus oleae Gmel. pupae in Greece.
Pupae from several stocks of wild and laboratory reared olive fruit fly, Dacus oleae, were fractionated by a series of steps designed to identify occluded and nonoccluded viruses. Two different size of particles were isolated, the smaller of which contained a single-stranded RNA molecule of about 2.8 x 10(6). This small RNA virus was found to inapparently infect a Ceratitis capitata continuous cell line.
