Tobacco rattle virus (TRV), previously referred to as Peony ringspot virus or Peony mosaic virus, is one of the most widespread viruses of peonies. There have been reports of this virus throughout Asia, Europe, New Zealand, and North America. TRV can infect both herbaceous (Paeonia lactiflora) and tree (Paeonia suffruticosa) peonies. TRV in peonies is most commonly expressed as ringspots of alternating green and yellow concentric circles or a yellow-green mottle or mosaic. Peonies cannot be cured of TRV; management options focus on preventing healthy plants from becoming infected through a combination of removing infected plants and reducing the potential for spread of the virus.
