山东烟台小麦土传病毒病由小麦黄花叶病毒和土传小麦花叶病毒相关病毒复合侵染所致

在山东省烟台地区的小麦上发生一种由土壤中禾谷多粘菌Polymyxa graminis传播的病毒病,感病小麦植株表现矮化褪绿和花叶症状.我们于1997年4月从病区采集感病小麦植株,进行了病毒种类鉴定.直接电镜观察发现有二种病毒粒子,一种粒子呈棒状,占大多数,其长度约为300nm和150nm; 另一种粒子呈线状,数量较少,长度为500nm～700nm.免疫电镜结果表明,棒状病毒粒子仅与土传小麦花叶病毒(soil-borne wheat mosaic virus, SBWMV)抗血清反应,而不与小麦黄花叶病毒(wheat yellow mosaic virus,WYMV)抗血清和小麦梭条斑花叶病毒(wheat spindle streat mosaic virus,WSSMV)抗血清反应;反之,线状病毒仅与WYMV、WSSMV抗血清反应,而不与SBWMV抗血清反应.用WYMV和SBWMV两种抗血清同时进行修饰时,线状病毒粒子和棒状病毒粒子均发生反应.     

我国真菌传线状小麦花叶病毒病病原初步鉴定为小麦黄花叶病毒(WYMV)

由禾谷多粘菌（Ｐｏｌｙｍｙｘａｇｒａｍｉｎｉｓ）传播的线状小麦花叶病毒有两种,一种是加拿大首先报道的小麦梭条斑花叶病毒（ＷＳＳＭＶ）,另一种是日本报道的小麦黄花叶病毒（ＷＹＭＶ）。这两种病毒粒子形态以及血清学性质非常相似,但核酸序列存在一定差异。经反转录聚合酶链反应（ＲＴＰＣＲ）和单链构象多态性分析（ＳＳＣＰ）,明确我国广泛发生的禾谷多粘菌传线状小麦花叶病毒都是小麦黄花叶病毒,但供试的８个分离物ＲＮＡ１和ＲＮＡ２序列存在差异,无一彼此完全相同

Use of Monoclonal Antibodies for the Serological Differentiation of Wheat and Oat Furoviruses

Twenty monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to Chinese wheat mosaic virus (CWMV) were produced by immunizing BALB/c mice with purified CWMV. These MAbs and polyclonal antisera against CWMV and soil-borne wheat mosaic virus Oklahoma isolate (SBWMV-Okl) were used to differentiate the wheat and oat furoviruses, CWMV, SBWMV, oat golden stripe virus (OGSV) and European wheat mosaic virus (EWMV). Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays and Western blotting showed that the dominant epitope(s) of CWMV was shared partially with OGSV whereas those of SBWMV were shared with CWMV, OGSV and EWMV in varying degrees. When CWMV virions were briefly digested with trypsin, coat protein fragments of about 12, 10 and 8 kDa were produced and these reacted with the polyclonal antisera and some MAbs, indicating that they contained dominant epitopes of CWMV and SBWMV. Computer analysis of the coat protein sequences suggested that the epitope shared between CWMV and OGSV was located at amino acids 35–40, whereas the dominant epitopes of SBWMV, which were shared with CWMV, EWMV and OGSV, were in the C terminal half of the coat protein     

Analysis of nucleotide sequence of wheat yellow mosaic virus genomic RNAs

Wheat yellow mosaic virus (WYMV) isolate HC was used for viral cDNA synthesis and sequencing. The results show that the viral RNA1 is 7629 nueleotides encoding a polyprotein with 2407 amino acids, from which seven putative proteins may be produced by an autolytie cleavage processing besides the viral coat protein. The RNA2 is 3639 nueleotides and codes for a polypretein of 903 amino acids, which may contain two putative non-structural proteins. Although WYMV shares a similarity in genetic organization to wheat spindle streak mosaic virus (WSSMV), the identities in their nucleotide sequences or deduced amino acid sequences are as low as 70% and 75 % respectively. Based on this result, it is confirmed that WYMV and WSSMV are different species within Bymovirus.

High Plains wheat mosaic virus: An enigmatic disease of wheat and corn causing the High Plains disease

Brief historyIn 1993, severe mosaic and necrosis symptoms were observed on corn (maize) and wheat from several Great Plains states of the USA. Based on the geographical location of infections, the disease was named High Plains disease and the causal agent was tentatively named High Plains virus. Subsequently, researchers renamed this virus as maize red stripe virus and wheat mosaic virus to represent the host and symptom phenotype of the virus. After sequencing the genome of the pathogen, the causal agent of High Plains disease was officially named as High Plains wheat mosaic virus. Hence, High Plains virus, maize red stripe virus, wheat mosaic virus, and High Plains wheat mosaic virus (HPWMoV) are synonyms for the causal agent of High Plains disease.TaxonomyHigh Plains wheat mosaic virus is one of the 21 definitive species in the genus Emaravirus in the family Fimoviridae.VirionThe genomic RNAs are encapsidated in thread‐like nucleocapsids in double‐membrane 80–200 nm spherical or ovoid virions.Genome characterizationThe HPWMoV genome consists of eight single‐stranded negative‐sense RNA segments encoding a single open reading frame (ORF) in each genomic RNA segment. RNA 1 is 6,981‐nucleotide (nt) long, coding for a 2,272 amino acid protein of RNA‐dependent RNA polymerase. RNA 2 is 2,211‐nt long and codes for a 667 amino acid glycoprotein precursor. RNA 3 has two variants of 1,439‐ and 1,441‐nt length that code for 286 and 289 amino acid nucleocapsid proteins, respectively. RNA 4 is 1,682‐nt long, coding for a 364 amino acid protein. RNA 5 and RNA 6 are 1,715‐ and 1,752‐nt long, respectively, and code for 478 and 492 amino acid proteins, respectively. RNA 7 and RNA 8 are 1,434‐ and 1,339‐nt long, code for 305 and 176 amino acid proteins, respectively.Biological propertiesHPWMoV can infect wheat, corn (maize), barley, rye brome, oat, rye, green foxtail, yellow foxtail, and foxtail barley. HPWMoV is transmitted by the wheat curl mite and through corn seed.Disease managementGenetic resistance against HPWMoV in wheat is not available, but most commercial corn hybrids are resistant while sweet corn varieties remain susceptible. Even though corn hybrids are resistant to virus, it still serves as a green bridge host that enables mites to carry the virus from corn to new crop wheat in the autumn. The main management strategy for High Plains disease in wheat relies on the management of green bridge hosts. Cultural practices such as avoiding early planting can be used to avoid mite buildup and virus infections.     

Nicotiana velutina mosaic virus: purification, properties and affinities with other rod-shaped viruses

Nicotiana velutina mosaic virus (NVMV), found in Australia, was transmitted by inoculation of sap to twenty species in the Solanaceae and Chenopodiaceae, and to Gomphrena globosa; its host range closely resembles that of potato mop-top virus (PMTV). Infectivity was abolished when sap was kept at room temperature between 1 and 4 days, or when heated for 10 min between 60 and 70 °C. NVMV was frequently transmitted through the seed of four Nicotiana spp. NVMV and PMTV were purified by a method that involved redissolving virus particles sedimented by low speed centrifugation of leaf extracts, followed by sedimentation through sucrose cushions. NVMV preparations contain rod-shaped particles about 18 nm wide and with a large range of lengths, the commonest being 125–150 nm. The particles have a helical structure with a pitch of 2–9 nm, break easily, and contain a single protein of apparent mol. wt. 21|400, slightly larger than that of PMTV (19 800). In serological tests assessed by electron microscopy, no relationship was detected between NVMV and PMTV, or barley stripe mosaic, beet necrotic yellow vein, soil-borne wheat mosaic, tobacco mosaic or tobacco rattle viruses. However, antiserum to soil-borne wheat mosaic virus reacted quite strongly with PMTV and weakly with tobacco mosaic virus. NVMV is considered to be a distinct member of the tobamovirus group; its frequent transmission through seed may be an adaptation to the arid environment where it was found. Its cryptogram is */*:*/*:E/E:S/*.     

Particle purification and properties of cassava Ivorian bacilliform virus

A virus found in cassava from the north-west of the Ivory Coast was transmitted by inoculation with sap extracts to herbaceous species in six plant families. Chenopodium quinoa was used as a propagation host and C. murale was used for local lesion assays. The virus particles are bacilliform, c. 18 nm in diameter, with predominant lengths of 42,49 and 76 nm and a structure apparently similar to that found in alfalfa mosaic virus. Purified preparations of virus particles had A₂₆₀/A₂₈₀ of 1.7 ±0.05, contained one protein of M_rc. 22 000, and yielded three species of RNA with M_r (× 10^-6) of c. 0.7, 0.8 and 1.2. Although the virus particles were poorly immunogenic, an antiserum was produced and the virus was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (DAS-ELISA) in leaf extracts at concentrations down to c. 6 ng/ml. Four other field isolates were also detected, including a strain which caused only mild systemic symptoms in C. quinoa instead of necrosis. The naturally infected cassava source plants were also infected with African cassava mosaic virus (ACMV) but when the new virus was cultured in Nicotiana benthamiana, either separately or together with ACMV, its concentration was the same. The new virus did not react with antisera to several plant viruses with small bacilliform or quasi-bacilliform particles, and alfalfa mosaic virus reacted only weakly and inconsistently with antiserum to the cassava virus. The new virus, for which the name cassava Ivorian bacilliform virus is proposed, is tentatively classified as the second member of the alfalfa mosaic virus group.

Durable field resistance to wheat yellow mosaic virus in transgenic wheat containing the antisense virus polymerase gene

Wheat yellow mosaic virus (WYMV) has spread rapidly and causes serious yield losses in the major wheat‐growing areas in China. Because it is vectored by the fungus‐like organism Polymyxa graminis that survives for long periods in soil, it is difficult to eliminate by conventional crop management or fungicides. There is also only limited resistance in commercial cultivars. In this research, fourteen independent transgenic events were obtained by co‐transformation with the antisense NIb8 gene (the NIb replicase of WYMV) and a selectable gene bar. Four original transgenic lines (N12, N13, N14 and N15) and an offspring line (N12‐1) showed high and durable resistance to WYMV in the field. Four resistant lines were shown to have segregated and only contain NIb8 (without bar) by PCR and herbicide resistance testing in the later generations. Line N12‐1 showed broad‐spectrum resistance to WYMV isolates from different sites in China. After growing in the infested soil, WYMV could not be detected by tissue printing and Western blot assays of transgenic wheat. The grain yield of transgenic wheat was about 10% greater than the wild‐type susceptible control. Northern blot and small RNA deep sequencing analyses showed that there was no accumulation of small interfering RNAs targeting the NIb8 gene in transgenic wheat plants, suggesting that transgene RNA silencing, a common mechanism of virus‐derived disease resistance, is not involved in the process of WYMV resistance. This durable and broad‐spectrum resistance to WYMV in transgenic wheat will be useful for alleviating the damage caused by WYMV.     

Some properties of peanut clump, a newly discovered virus

A mechanically transmissible soil-borne virus causing peanut clump disease in Upper Volta is described. It infected mainly species of Chenopodia-ceae and was propagated in Chenopodium amaranticolor. Infectivity was lost from sap of C. amaranticolor after 10 min at 64 °C, and after dilution to 10^-5 but not io^-4. A purification procedure is described. The particles are rod-shaped and of two predominant lengths, 190 and 245 nm. The virus is not serologically related to tobacco rattle, pea early-browning, or soil-borne wheat mosaic viruses, or to a virus associated with a rhizomania-like disease of beet.     

Production and Characterization of Monoclonal Antibodies to Barley Yellow Mosaic Virus and Their Use in Detection of Four Bymoviruses

Six monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against a French isolate of barley yellow mosaic virus (BaYMV) pathotype 2 were produced and their isotypes determined. These MAbs were compared in ELISA for their reactivity with different isolates of BaYMV, wheat yellow mosaic virus (WYMV), wheat spindle streak mosaic virus (WSSMV) and oat mosaic virus (OMV).The six MAbs detected BaYMV in TAS ELISA and western blot, whereas in ACP ELISA no reaction was observed with isolates of BaYMV and WYMV. These MAbs could recognize the sequential motifs situated at the surface of viral particles. The six MAbs detected all the European isolates of BaYMV pathotype 1 and 2 and the Japanese isolate of this viral pathotype 1–1. In contrast to other MAbs, MAb IV did not react with the Japanese isolate of BaYMV pathotype II-l. In TAS ELISA. MAbs I, II, III, and IV detected the Japanese isolate of WYMV and American isolates of WSSMV only when they were captured by anti-WYMV polyclonal antibodies, A French isolate of OMV was detected only by the MAbs I and II in TAS ELISA with Polyclonal anti-BaYMV.     

A major QTL for resistance to soil-borne cereal mosaic virus derived from an old Italian durum wheat cultivar

Abstract

The genetic basis of resistance to soil-borne cereal mosaic virus (SBCMV) in the Triticum turgidum L. var. durum cv. Neodur was analyzed in this study, using a linkage mapping approach. We performed phenotypic and molecular analyses of 146 recombinant inbred lines derived from the cross Cirillo (highly susceptible)×Neodur (highly resistant). A major quantitative trait locus (QTL) that explained up to 87% of the observed variability for symptom severity was identified on the short arm of chromosome 2B, within the 40-cM interval between the markers Xwmc764 and Xgwm1128, with wPt-2106 as the peak marker. Three minor QTLs were found on chromosomes 3B and 7B. Two markers coding for resistance proteins co-segregate with the major QTL on chromosome 2B and the minor QTL on chromosome 3B, representing potential candidate genes for the two resistance loci. Microsatellite markers flanking the major QTL were evaluated on a set of 25 durum wheat genotypes that were previously characterized for SBCMV resistance. The allelic composition of the genotypes at these loci, together with pedigree data, suggests that the old Italian cultivar Cappelli provided the SBCMV-resistance determinants to durum cultivars that have been independently bred in different countries over the last century.     

Purification and some properties of oat golden stripe virus

Oat golden stripe virus (OGSV) was maintained in oats by mechanical inoculation and purified by extraction of leaves in borate buffer, two cycles of centrifugation through sucrose cushions and isopycnic centrifugation in CsCl. An antiserum with a titre of 1/1024 in precipitin tests was prepared. Particle length distribution was bimodal with median values, respectively, of 150 and 300 nm from dip preparations. Measurements from immunosorbent electron microscopy (ISEM) and purified preparations showed that the particles had partially degraded during these procedures. The virus sedimented as two components of 168 S and 218 S and had a buoyant density of 1321 g cm^-3. Four isolates of OGSV reacted with the antiserum. Antiserum to members and possible members of the furovirus group were tested in ISEM decoration tests and in ELISA. OGSV was related to soil-borne wheat mosaic virus but not to beet necrotic yellow vein virus, hypochoeris mosaic virus or potato mop-top virus.     

Inheritance of resistance to potyviruses in Phaseolus vulgaris L. IV. Inheritance, linkage relations, and environmental effects on systemic resistance to four potyviruses

We have examined the genetics of systemic resistance in Phaseolus vulgaris to azuki bean mosaic virus (AzMV) and cowpea aphid-borne mosaic virus (CABMV) and the relationship of this resistance to a phenotypically similar resistance to watermelon mosaic virus (WMV) and soybean mosaic virus (SMV). In P. vulgaris cv Great Northern 1140 (GN1140), resistance to SMV and WMV has been attributed to the genes Smv and Wmv, respectively, which have been shown to segregate as a unit. Systemic resistance to AzMV is conferred by two incompletely dominant alleles, Azm1 and Azm2, at unlinked loci. At least three resistance alleles must be present at these two loci for systemic resistance to be expressed in the plant. Systemic resistance to CABMV in GN 1140 is conditioned by a dominant allele that has been designated Cam2. Under some environmental conditions, a recessive allele at an unlinked locus, cam3, also controls a resistant response to CABMV. Resistance to AzMV and CABMV does not assort independently from Wmv/Smv, but also does not consistently cosegregate, suggesting that perhaps in each case one of the factors involved in resistance is associated with Smv/Wmv.     

Immunological detection of bean common mosaic virus in French bean (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Phaseolus vulgaris</Emphasis> L.) leaves

Bean common mosaic potyvirus (BCMV) is an important seed borne pathogen of French bean. Differential inoculation with bean common mosaic virus at cotylodonary trifoliate leaf stage and pre-flowering stage of crop growth revealed that cotyledonary leaf infection favored maximum disease expression. Under immunosorbent electron microscopy (ISEM) the virus particles of filamentous structure having a diameter of 750 nm (l) and 15 nm (w) were observed. These particles gave positive precipitin tests with polyclonal antiserum of Potato virus Y.     

First Report of Soil‐Borne Wheat Mosaic Virus (SBWMV)‐Infecting Triticale in Poland

The virus in naturally infected, stunted triticale plants was identified as soil‐borne wheat mosaic virus (SBWMV). The infected plants were collected in the Southern Wielkopolska region (Western Poland). Molecular analysis including RT‐PCR, and sequencing of the complete coding sequence of coat protein gene, was performed. The sequence of the Polish isolate of SBWMV (SBWMV‐Pol1) shared 100, 99 and 98% identities with the corresponding regions of De1 (AF519799), OKL‐1 (X81639) and US‐Nebraska (L07938) isolates of SBWMV, respectively. Phylogenetic analyses showed that the Polish isolate, SBWMV‐Pol1, clustered together with other SBWMV isolates. This is the first report of the occurrence of SBWMV in Poland and the second of its presence in Europe.
