To optimise sampling conditions for the detection by ELISA of Onion yellow dwarf virus (OYDV) and Leek yellow stripe virus (LYSV), the most important viral pathogens of garlic worldwide, relative virus concentrations were determined during the growing period and in different leaf parts by DAS‐ELISA. Both viruses were found to have uneven distributions in garlic plants, with the tips of the two latest fully developed leaves showing the highest concentrations and the oldest leaves the lowest concentrations. The tips of the youngest leaves were found to have higher virus concentrations than their middle and basal sections. In the older leaves, viruses were distributed more uniformly in the three leaf sections. In the oldest leaves virus levels in the leaf tips were significantly decreased. The concentrations of OYDV and LYSV increased until March, whereas later on they decreased. During storage of leaf samples at 6°C for 15 days, a loss was found of both virus antigens of more than 80%, and during 109 days of storage at ?30°C a loss of more than 90% was found. 相似文献

Garlic plants are naturally infected with a mixture of viruses. Virus‐free garlic plants, obtained by meristem culture, rapidly become reinfected when planted in the field. With the aim of understanding virus movement and fluctuations in virus concentration in leaves and cloves of garlic plants in the first year after infection, Onion yellow dwarf virus, Leek yellow stripe virus, and other viruses were analyzed by double‐antibody sandwich enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay. Significant differences were detected in virus concentration in different leaves, but the distribution of the viruses was variable. Therefore, no one type or position of leaf is preferable for detecting virus presence. Instead, sampling any leaf at the end of the crop cycle, about 200 days after planting, is advisable because virus concentration is several times higher in older plants. The analysis of virus distribution in bulbs revealed that virus concentration was higher in early‐inoculated than in late‐inoculated plants. In 81% of the bulbs, cloves were either all positive or all negative in serological tests. Only in 6% of the cases were positive and negative cloves found in the same bulb, and in 13% of the bulbs, negative results coexisted with an uncertain status. The tests of virus concentration in relation to the layers of each bulb revealed important differences. Only the innermost layer showed differences with other layers, but this was poorly represented as it had fewer cloves. 相似文献

Leaf mottling of Spartina species caused by a newly recognised virus, spartina mottle virus 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
PHILIP JONES 《The Annals of applied biology》1980,94(1):77-81
The cause of a previously undocumented leaf mottling of Spartina species was investigated. Negatively stained preparations of sap from mottled leaves revealed flexuous particles 725 × 12 nm. Pinwheels with associated laminar inclusion bodies were observed in thin sections of affected mesophyll cells. The virus was purified from infected Spartina anglica plants and had a sedimentation coefficient in 0·015 m borate of 150S. The virus was transmitted by inoculation of sap to healthy Spartina anglica, but not to a range of other graminaceous or dicotyledonous species tested. It was distantly serologically related to agropyron mosaic virus, but not to other viruses with similar morphology; the name spartina mottle virus is proposed. 相似文献

Transmission characteristics and some other properties of bean yellow vein-banding virus, and its association with pea enation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Bean yellow vein-banding virus (BYVBV) has been found occasionally in mixed infection with pea enation mosaic virus (PEMV) in spring-sown field beans (Vicia faba minor) in southern England. Glasshouse tests confirmed that, like PEMV, BYVBV is transmissible by manual inoculation and by aphids in the persistent manner. However, BYVBV can be transmitted by aphids only from plants that are also infected with a helper virus, usually PEMV. Thus after separation from PEMV by passage through Phaseolus vulgaris it was no longer aphid-transmissible. It became aphid-transmissible again only after re-mixing in plants with PEMV or with a substitute helper, bean leaf roll virus (BLRV). It was not transmitted by aphids that fed sequentially on plants singly infected with PEMV and BYVBV. Thus the interaction between BYVBV and PEMV (or BLRV) that enables BYVBV to be transmitted by aphids seems to occur only in doubly infected plants. However, it was not transmitted by aphids from plants doubly infected with BYVBV and broad bean wilt virus (BBWV). BYVBV and PEMV were transmitted more readily by Acyrthosiphon pisum than by Myzus persicae; neither virus was transmitted by Aphis fabae. Phenol extracts of BYVBV-infected leaves were more infective than phosphate buffer or bentonite-clarified extracts and were sometimes infective when diluted to 1/1000. The infectivity of BYVBV in phosphate buffer extracts of leaves singly infected with BYVBV, unlike that in extracts of leaves doubly infected with BYVBV and PEMV (or BLRV), was destroyed by treatment with organic solvents. BYVBV infected 11 of 28 plant species that were inoculated with phenol extracts; seven of the infected species were legumes. No transmission of BYVBV was detected through seed harvested from infected field bean plants. Isometric particles c. 30 nm in diameter were seen in extracts of plants doubly infected with BYVBV and PEMV but not in extracts of plants infected with BYVBV alone. Leaves of plants infected with BYVBV, alone or with PEMV, contained membrane-bound structures c. 50–90 nm in diameter associated with the tonoplast in cell vacuoles. These structures were not found in healthy leaves. BYVBV has several properties in common with other known aphid-borne viruses that are helper-dependent and transmitted in a persistent manner. Possibly, as suggested for some of them, aphid transmission of BYVBV depends on the coating of its nucleic acid with helper virus coat protein. 相似文献

Studies were made of the relations of parsnip yellow fleck virus (PYFV) and its helper virus, anthriscus yellows (AYV), with their aphid vector, Cavariella aegopodii. Apterous insects were more efficient vectors than alates; apterous nymphs were as efficient as apterous adults. C. aegopodii never transmitted PYFV in the absence of AYV, but aphids carrying both viruses infected some test plants with one or other virus alone. C. aegopodii that fed first on a source of AYV and then on a source of PYFV transmitted both viruses to test plants, but aphids that fed on the sources in the reverse order transmitted only AYV. Test plants receiving some aphids from a source of AYV, and others from a source of PYFV, became infected only with AYV. C. aegopodii acquired AYV or the AYV/PYFV complex from plants in a minimum acquisition access time (AAT) of 10–15 mm and inoculated the viruses to test plants in a minimum inoculation access time (IAT) of 2 min. Increasing either AAT or IAT, or both, to 1 h or longer increased the frequency of transmission of each virus. Starving the insects before the acquisition feed on AYV or AYV/PFYV sources did not affect transmission. Aphids already carrying AYV acquired PYFV from plants in a minimum AAT of only 2 min; they acquired and inoculated PYFV in a minimum total time of 12 min. The data suggest that AYV is confined to deeply lying tissues whereas PYFV is distributed throughout the leaf. C. aegopodii transmitted both PYFV and AYV in a semi-persistent manner: the aphids retained both viruses for up to 4 days but lost them on moulting. Neither virus was passed to progeny of viruliferous adults. Earlier results suggesting that AYV is a persistent virus may have been caused by contamination of the AYV culture with carrot red leaf virus. 相似文献

African cassava mosaic virus (ACMV) was detected in cassava leaves by ELISA. Some normal constituents of cassava leaves interfered with virus detection but leaf extracts of Nicotiana benthamiana did not. The symptom pattern was determined early in the growth of a leaf and subsequently changed little. ACMV was found only in the yellow or yellow green areas of the mosaic pattern. Virus content of the leaves increased with increasing symptom intensity, but decreased with leaf age and ACMV was not detected in mature leaves. Most whiteflies were found on young growing cassava leaves and the number decreased progressively with leaf age. This distribution will aid both the acquisition and inoculation of the virus. 相似文献

Infection of Rhizobium-nodulated Phaseolus vulgaris by the southern bean mosaic virus (SBMV) markedly decreased the growth and nodulation of plants. Exogenous applications of salicylic acid (SA) at concentrations ≥10 μM further decreased growth and nodulation of virus-infected (V) plants. Only SA concentration of 5 μM in the solution improved the growth, nodulation, chlorophyll concentration and the catabolism of ureide in leaves of V plants. The spray of leaves with 2 mM propyl gallate (+Pg) decreased growth, nodulation as well as the chlorophyll and leaf ureide concentrations in V plants, regardless of the concentration of SA at which plants were grown. Ultrastructural damages in leaf cells caused by SBMV were also enhanced in V+Pg plants. The massive proliferation of virus particles and the presence of virus crystalline arrays within symbiosomes of nodules in V+Pg plants were attributed to proliferation of branched plasmodesmata in leaf vascular-parenchyma cell walls that facilitated virus movement. Virus particles were never observed in leaf and nodule tissues of V plants not sprayed with Pg. Exogenous applications of SA hindered while Pg increased the symbiotic performance of H plants, pointing out the complexity to be addressed in breeding for virus resistance in Rhizobium-nodulated beans. 相似文献

Tomato yellow leaf curl disease (TYLCD) is one of the most devastating viral diseases affecting tomato crops in tropical, subtropical and temperate regions of the world. Here, we focus on the interactions through recombination between the different begomovirus species causing TYLCD, provide an overview of the interactions with the cellular genes involved in viral replication, and highlight recent progress on the relationships between these viruses and their vector, the whitefly Bemisia tabaci. Taxonomy: The tomato yellow leaf curl virus‐like viruses (TYLCVs) are a complex of begomoviruses (family Geminiviridae, genus Begomovirus) including 10 accepted species: Tomato yellow leaf curl Axarquia virus (TYLCAxV), Tomato yellow leaf curl China virus (TYLCCNV), Tomato yellow leaf curl Guangdong virus (TYLCGuV), Tomato yellow leaf curl Indonesia virus (TYLCIDV), Tomato yellow leaf curl Kanchanaburi virus (TYLVKaV), Tomato yellow leaf curl Malaga virus (TYLCMalV), Tomato yellow leaf curl Mali virus (TYLCMLV), Tomato yellow leaf curl Sardinia virus (TYLCSV), Tomato yellow leaf curl Thailand virus (TYLCTHV), Tomato yellow leaf curl Vietnam virus (TYLCVNV) and Tomato yellow leaf curl virus(TYLCV). We follow the species demarcation criteria of the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV), the most important of which is an 89% nucleotide identity threshold between full‐length DNA‐A component nucleotide sequences for begomovirus species. Strains of a species are defined by a 93% nucleotide identity threshold. Host range: The primary host of TYLCVs is tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), but they can also naturally infect other crops [common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris), sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum), chilli pepper (C. chinense) and tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum)], a number of ornamentals [petunia (Petunia×hybrida) and lisianthus (Eustoma grandiflora)], as well as common weeds (Solanum nigrum and Datura stramonium). TYLCVs also infect the experimental host Nicotiana benthamiana. Disease symptoms: Infected tomato plants are stunted or dwarfed, with leaflets rolled upwards and inwards; young leaves are slightly chlorotic; in recently infected plants, fruits might not be produced or, if produced, are small and unmarketable. In common bean, some TYLCVs produce the bean leaf crumple disease, with thickening, epinasty, crumpling, blade reduction and upward curling of leaves, as well as abnormal shoot proliferation and internode reduction; the very small leaves result in a bushy appearance. 相似文献

Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. 'Black Valentine' is a systemic host for the plant viruses Southern bean mosaic virus (SBMV) and bean pod mottle virus (BPMV). The Mexican bean beetle, Epilachna varivestis Mulsant, is a vector of SBMV and BPMV. Our objective was to determine if the interaction of SBMV and BPMV with 'Black Valentine' bean plants would affect beetle behavior and growth. In adult feeding preference test assays, beetles preferred and ingested more of the virus-infected bean leaf tissue than the noninfected leaf tissue. Beetle larvae that fed on SBMV- or BPMV-infected plants weighed more than those that fed on healthy plants. Our experiments suggest that there might be a mutually beneficial relationship between the beetle and the viruses that it vectors. The virus benefits from being transmitted and the beetle benefits from better larval growth when feeding on virus-infected leaf tissue. This study further demonstrates the complexity of relationships between multiple organisms. 相似文献

The accumulation of potato virus Y?(PVY?) and potato leaf roll virus (PLRV) was studied in plants of Solanum brevidens co-infected with each of six viruses or a viroid. Virus could not be detected by ELISA in plants of S. brevidens infected solely with PVY. However, accumulation of PVY was increased c. 1000-fold in plants doubly infected with tobacco mosaic virus or potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTVd). PVY titres in doubly infected plants of S. brevidens were between 1% and 0.1% of those found in the PVY-susceptible interspecific Solanum hybrid DTO-33. Double infections of 5. brevidens by PVY and alfalfa mosaic virus or potato viruses M, S, T or X did not significantly enhance PVY accumulation. Accumulation of PLRV was not enhanced in plants co-infected with any of the six viruses or PSTVd. 相似文献

Altered photosynthetic reactions in cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) inoculated leaves of virus resistant lines L113 and L57 and
susceptible pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) plants cv. Albena grown in controlled environment and in the field were investigated. The CMV inoculated leaves of virus
resistant lines developed different symptoms—necrotic local lesions on L113 and chlorotic spots on L57 while the same leaves
of susceptible cv. Albena were symptomless. The changes in Photosystem II (PSII) and PSI electron transport were evaluated
by chlorophyll fluorescence, and far-red (FR) light induced leaf absorbance A
810–860. CMV infection caused a decrease in maximal PSII quantum yield, F
v/F
m, in susceptible leaves. Increased non-photochemical fluorescence quenching in CMV-inoculated leaves of both resistant lines
were observed. In CMV-inoculated leaves of all tested plants FR light induced P700 oxidation was decreased. In the present
study, the viral-infected pepper plants grown in controlled environment to avoid the effects of abiotic factors were used
as model system that allow us to investigate the differences in leaf senescence in CMV-inoculated leaves of susceptible and
resistant pepper lines expressing different symptoms. Earlier leaf falls of inoculated leaves as a result of accelerated leaf
senescence is important for building successful secondary virus resistance strategy following fast responses such as hypersensitive
reaction. 相似文献

A virus causing ‘eyespot’ leaf symptoms in groundnut plants was transmitted by sap-inoculation and by Aphis craccivora in the non-persistent manner. It infected 16 of 72 species from five of 12 families and was easily propagated in Arachis hypogaea and Physalis floridana. The virus has particles c. 13 × 755 nm and is serologically closely related to soybean mosaic and pepper veinal mottle viruses, and more distantly to four other potyviruses. The virus differs in host range, in vitro properties and serological properties from previously described strains of soybean mosaic and pepper veinal mottle viruses. It seems to be a distinct member of the potyvirus group and we propose the name groundnut eyespot virus. 相似文献

A whitefly-transmitted infectious agent, associated with geminate particles, induced distinct symptoms on several Ipomoea species, but not on I. batatas cv. Georgia Jet. The virus was transmitted by Bemisia argentifolii in a persistent manner and by grafting, but not mechanically. No transmission to species outside Ipomoea was obtained. Extracts from infected Ipomoea plants hybridised with a bean yellow mosaic virus riboprobe and a tomato yellow leaf curl virus riboprobe, although not so strongly as hybridisation of these riboprobes with extracts from plants infected with the homologous viruses. Based on host range, we consider this virus to be distinct from sweet potato leaf curl virus reported from the Far East, and propose it be named “Ipomoea crinkle leaf curl virus” (ICLCV). 相似文献

Primary leaf development of Sorghum bicolor is a
phytochrome-mediated response. Primary leaves are not produced in
Sorghum seedlings even after 10 d of germination if
grown in darkness. However, 5 min irradiation with white light or red light
given to 5 d etiolated seedlings resulted in the formation of etiolated
leaves. This effect of red light was reversed by far-red light. When
calcium (3-5 mM) was added exogenously, complete leaf formation was
obtained in darkness; however, the kinetics of the response was slower than
that seen with light irradiation. This effect was also obtained with
potassium ions but magnesium ions had no effect. Light- and
calcium-mediated leaf development could be arrested at the stage of leaf
emergence or leaf expansion by the addition of inhibitors of G-proteins or
by calcium channel blockers suggesting a role of G-proteins and calcium in
phytochrome signal transduction during primary leaf development.Key words:
Leaf formation, G-proteins, calcium, potassium, Sorghum

Particles resembling those of geminiviruses were found by immunosorbent electron microscopy in extracts of plants infected in India with bhendi yellow vein mosaic, croton yellow vein mosaic, dolichos yellow mosaic, horsegram yellow mosaic, Indian cassava mosaic and tomato leaf curl viruses. All these viruses were transmitted by Bemisia tabaci whiteflies, all reacted with at least one out of ten monoclonal antibodies to African cassava mosaic virus (ACMV), and all reacted with a probe for ACMV DNA-1, but scarcely or not at all with a full-length probe for ACMV DNA-2. Most of the viruses were distinguished by their host ranges when transmitted by whiteflies, and the rest could be distinguished by their pattern of reactions with the panel of monoclonal antibodies. Horsegram yellow mosaic virus was distinguished from Thailand mung bean yellow mosaic virus by its lack of sap transmissibility, ability to infect Arachis hypogaea, failure to react strongly with the probe for ACMV DNA-2 and its pattern of reactions with the monoclonal antibodies. Structures resembling a ‘string of pearls’, but not geminate particles, were found in leaf extracts containing malvastrum yellow vein mosaic virus. Such extracts reacted with two of the monoclonal antibodies, suggesting that this whitefly-transmitted virus too is a geminivirus. All seven viruses from India can therefore be considered whitefly-transmitted geminiviruses. 相似文献

Six blackberry or hybrid berry cultivars and 19 raspberry cultivars were assessed for their infectibility with, and sensitivity to, graft inoculation with 10 distinct viruses found infecting Rubus in the UK. Cultivars were grafted with each of, two isolates of the pollen borne raspberry bushy dwarf virus (RBDV), five aphid borne viruses: black raspberry necrosis, raspberry leaf mottle (RLMV), raspberry leaf spot (RLSV), rubus yellow net and raspberry vein chlorosis (RVCV); and isolates of the nematode transmitted nepoviruses, arabis mosaic, raspberry ringspot, strawberry latent ringspot and tomato black ring. All tested cultivars were infectible with a resistance breaking isolate of RBDV but only about half of that number with the Scottish type isolate of the virus. The raspberry cvs Autumn Bliss, and occasionally Glen Garry and Glen Prosen, developed leaf yellowing symptoms following infection with RBDV, but none of the other infected cultivars showed obvious leaf symptoms when kept in a heated glasshouse during the growing season. All tested cultivars were infectible with each of the four viruses transmitted in nature by the aphid, Amphorophora idaei. Most were infected symptomlessly, but seven cultivars developed severe leaf spotting symptoms due to infection with RLMV or RLSV. All but one of the raspberry cultivars were infectible with RVCV, which is transmitted in nature by the aphid Aphis idaei, and almost all infected plants developed leaf symptoms; only one of the hybrid berry or blackberry cultivars tested was infected with RVCV. In tests with the four nepoviruses, all tested cultivars, except Tummelberry, were infectible with at least one or more of these viruses. However, cultivars responded differently to challenge inoculation with different isolates of individual nepoviruses. Several cultivars developed chlorotic leaf mottling following infection with some nepovirus isolates. The implications of these results for virus control are discussed in the light of the changing pattern of virus and virus vector incidence in the UK. 相似文献

Aphid-transmitted viruses from lilies in Britain 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Three aphid-transmitted viruses, tulip breaking, lily symptomless and cucumber mosaic, were obtained from lilies in Britain. Tulip breaking virus was detected by the leaf mottle produced in Lilium formosanum, cucumber mosaic virus by inoculation of sap to Nicotiana clevelandii and Chenopodium quinoa, and lily symptomless virus by electron microscopy of crude leaf extracts from symptomless L. formosanum. Liiy symptomless virus was transmitted by Myzus persicae, Macrosiphum euphorbiae, Aulacorthum solani and Aphis fabae. M. persicae, which in a small experiment appeared a more efficient vector than A. fabae, transmitted the virus in a non-persistent manner. This conflicts with the original report of transmission in a persistent manner by A. gossypii but no transmission by M. persicae. The possibility that there are two distinct viruses with similar pathological effects is discussed. Tulip breaking and lily symptomless viruses spread to bait plants of L. formosanum within a field planting of lilies in Scotland especially during July to September; lily symptomless virus was the more prevalent. No spread of cucumber mosaic virus was detected. 相似文献

Electron microscopy of ultrathin sections of leaves of symptomless Himalaya Giant blackberry and of the virus indicator species, Rubus macraei, showing severe leaf curl symptoms following graft inoculation with scions from this blackberry, detected highly flexuous virus‐like particles with an unusual ‘beaded’ structure. Such particles were restricted to a few vascular cells and were distinct from P‐protein common in some such cells. This virus, provisionally named Hawaiian rubus leaf curl virus (HRLCV), symptomlessly infected a wide range of Rubus species and cultivars. Badnavirus‐like bacilliform particles were observed in some cells of a single R. macraei plant showing leaf curl symptoms following graft inoculation with the causal agent of this disease symptom from Himalaya Giant blackberry after passage through red raspberry, but not in any other material. PCR with primer sets for the badnaviruses Rubus yellow net virus and Gooseberry veinbanding associated virus, showed that no Rubus sources studied contained these viruses. However, using a sequence‐specific primer set designed from the sequence of the product generated with a badnavirus degenerate primer set, a specific product was amplified from healthy plants of all of 16 raspberry cultivars and two Rubus species, but not from 16 blackberry cultivars (including cv. Himalaya Giant). All of these sources were free from viruses known to occur in Rubus. Sequence analysis of this product showed no homology with any known badnavirus, or with any other published sequences. It seems most likely therefore that a region of the raspberry genome has been amplified using the degenerate badnavirus primer set and that it is absent from the blackberry genome. 相似文献

Narcissus late season yellows potyvirus: symptoms, properties and serological detection 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Narcissus late season yellows virus (NLSYV) was obtained, apparently unmixed with other viruses, in selected naturally infected narcissus plants. The virus was not transmitted by manual inoculation to any of the 12 herbaceous species tested but was transmitted by Myzus persicae to virus-tested narcissus plants, which then developed symptoms characteristic of late season yellows. Typically, symptoms develop late in the growing season but their expression is unreliable. NLSYV particles, which measured c. 750 ± 12 nm, were purified from fresh leaf extracts of narcissus in 0·3 m sodium citrate containing 10 mm sodium EDTA and 10 mm sodium DIECA by differential centrifugation followed by clarification with diethyl ether, gel filtration and isopycnic banding in caesium sulphate. Using antibodies from antisera prepared to virus particles, NLSYV was detected by ELISA in 14 of the 18 cultivars examined and nine seemed totally infected. Detection of the virus by immunosorbent electron microscopy was as sensitive as by ELISA but neither test detected all infections. The virus was detected by ELISA only in samples collected after flowering and capsid antigen concentration was greatest in the distal region of leaves. The reliability of detection depended on the cultivar. Immuno-electron microscopy tests confirmed the occurrence of a distinct potyvirus, presumably narcissus degeneration, in narcissus cv. Grand Soleil d'Or, failed to detect any virus other than NLSYV in narcissus plants affected by white streak disease, and showed that NLSYV is related to three of five other potyviruses tested. 相似文献

A partial purification procedure is described for a flexuous filamentous virus from leaves of the ornamental crop tuberose (Polianthes tuberosa L.) exhibiting mottle symptoms. Particular problems associated with the purification included particle aggregation and the highly viscous nature of the plant sap. The former difficulty was partially alleviated by the addition of 1.0 M urea to the extraction buffer and the latter by treatment of the extract with cellulase. The mean virus particle length from negatively stained leaf dips was 742 nm (SD = 54) which is characteristic of viruses belonging to the potyvirus group. In addition, electron microscopy of thin sections of infected leaf tissue demonstrated the presence of several types of inclusion bodies similar in appearance to inclusions previously described in association with potyvirus infections in other plants. 相似文献
