Current pest situation evaluated by EPPO on the basis of information dated
2025: Absent, no record
Bean golden mosaic virus (BGMV, now Begomovirus costai) and bean golden yellow mosaic virus (BGYMV, now Begomovirus birdi) were separated in the 1990s. Literature prior to this separation considered all records as bean golden mosaic virus (including in the EPPO/CABI Data Sheet, 1997). The reference used to justify the record for BGMV for Florida (below) refers to BGYMV. No reference for BGMV in the USA was found in the literature (2025-11).
