The virus has a dilution end point between 1:1,000 - 1:10,000, thermal inactivation point between 55 - 60°C and longevity in vitro between 1 - 2 days. It is a flexuous rod virus of 600 - 750 nm in length. Ultrathin sections of infected leaves reveal pinwheel inclusions. This virus in a member of Potyvirus group.
