Eight isolates from different potato growing regions in Vietnam were characterized. All were highly pathogenic in some potato cultivars, but did not overcome the extreme resistance of Solanum stoloniferum and Solanum demissum . RT ‐ PCR analysis revealed that all of these isolates are recombinants. Sequence data for 4 isolates were obtained, and their reaction in potato cultivars harbouring specific N genes was determined. Different phylogenetic analyses of viral sequences confirmed previous results that the recombinant isolates evolved from different parental sequences. One of the Vietnamese isolates investigated had a specific structure. The need for a clear classification of PVY N W i isolates is discussed.
