Extensive host range includes many weed, fruit and ornamental plant species. The vegetables and agronomic crops listed below are important
No
TORSXX-11
Pathway not proven. Seed as a pathway is often speculated based on one dated reference from Japan. This reference could not be verified and it is unclear if the transmission was with naturally infected seed or in the laboratory only.

Natural infection has been reported only from asparagus (Asparagus officinalis). Plants infected from seed show no obvious symptoms but vigour and productivity are reduced. Also transmitted through seed of N. tabacum cv. Samsun, Zinnia elegans, and Petunia hybrida.
