Hard to say I have seen this in many Illustrius before. It could be virus induced or just a mutation. In almost all cases the plant never holds true to this form. I find that after 2 to 3 feet of growth it disapears. It should be just a mutation or the virus is not very stable when the plant gets more mature and is able to hold back its effects. In most cases the plants have yellow wavy effects on the leaves from mosaic virus but in colored leaves it can cause patterns like the one shown.

Here is a pic of off a mutation I found on one illustrius it stayed like this till it reached 3 feet tall then reverted back to normal. What a pain LOL.
