This has become one of the most interesting  threads I've read on any =
list, and the addition of pictures enhances it enormously.  
I'd just like to distinguish the use of the term "random" from diffuse =
which may  also be visually random.  "Random"  as in this Amorphophallus ==
is  "sectional",  involving relativley large sections. The other kind of ==
virus-based infection I was talking about is nowhere near as obvious, =
but "seems" to lie in randomly dispersed much smaller areas, at first =
appearance--about the size of individual cells, and then sort of =
gradually invading an area until the whole area  may become chlorotic =
and die.
