Virus

I have discovered 2 viruses in Galanthus nivalis. The plants didn't showed
any symptoms. Cucumber Mosaic Virus (have more than 1000 hosts) and Lily
Mottle Virus (probably, or maybe a newone), we tested the samples for CMV
and potyviruses, but we didn't have had time for example Tobamoviruses,
Potexviruses or Tospoviruses (TSWV has also around 1000 hosts).

I have also read that some variegations may occure from viral infection, but
most variegation is a kind of chimera.
