Tomato chlorosis virus (ToCV) is a whitefly‐transmitted, phloem‐limited, bipartite Crinivirus. In 2012, severe interveinal symptoms characteristic of ToCV infections were observed in greenhouse tomato plants in the Shandong province of China. High levels of infestation by whiteflies (Bemisia tabaci), which transmit ToCV, were also observed on tomato plants in all the greenhouses investigated. The presence of ToCV was confirmed by specific RT‐PCR either in the sampled plants or in the whiteflies collected from the ventral surface of the leaves of diseased plants. The complete genomic nucleotide sequences (RNA1 and RNA2) of the Shandong isolate of ToCV (ToCV‐SDSG) were determined and analysed. ToCV‐SDSG RNA1 consisted of 8594 nucleotides encompassing four open reading frames (ORFs). ToCV‐SDSG RNA2 consisted of 8242 nucleotides encompassing nine ORFs. Phylogenetic analysis suggests that the Chinese ToCV‐SDSG isolate is most similar to the ToCV‐Florida isolate.  相似文献

Interveinal leaf chlorosis, brittleness, limited necrotic flecking or bronzing developed on greenhouse‐grown tobacco and tomato plants at Nanjing Agricultural University from 2010 to 2013. A positive RT‐PCR using a pair of degenerate primers for Crinivirus confirmed the diseased plants were infected with Tomato chlorosis virus (ToCV). The complete RNA 1 genomic sequence of this ToCV isolate was determined; it comprises of 8596 nucleotides with four open reading frames. Phylogenetic analysis of ToCV isolates from diverse geographical regions categorized the ToCV isolates into two main groups. Group one consisted of Chinese, American‐Florida, Greek and Brazilian isolates, while Group two contained only the Spanish isolate. The first group had two subgroups, one of Chinese and American‐Florida isolates, while the other subgroup had Greek and Brazilian isolates. This is the first study of the complete nucleotide sequence of the RNA 1 of ToCV isolated from China.  相似文献

By comparing the partial nucleotide sequences of the heat shock protein HSP70 homologue gene, we assessed the genetic diversity of Brazilian tomato isolates of Tomato chlorosis virus (ToCV), as well as their relationship with other ToCV isolates found worldwide. The Brazilian ToCV isolates shared 99.9–100% nucleotide identity, which indicates low genetic diversity. Brazilian ToCV isolates showed a closer evolutionary relationship to those from Mediterranean countries. Based on these results, the origin of Brazilian ToCV isolates and the possible number of introductions of the virus into Brazil are discussed.  相似文献

Tomato chlorosis virus (ToCV), which is a newly emerged and rapidly spreading plant virus in China, has seriously reduced tomato production and quality over the past several years. In this study, the effect of ToCV on the demography of the whitefly, Bemisia tabaci biotype Q (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae), fed on infected and healthy tomato plants was evaluated using the age‐stage, two‐sex life table. When reared on ToCV‐infected tomato plants, the fecundity, length of oviposition period and female adult longevity of B. tabaci biotype Q decreased significantly, while the pre‐adult duration significantly increased compared to controls reared on healthy tomatoes. Consequently, the intrinsic rate of increase (r) and finite of increase (λ) of B. tabaci biotype Q on ToCV‐infected tomato plants significantly decreased compared to those on healthy tomatoes. Population projection predicted that a population of B. tabaci biotype Q fed on ToCV‐infected tomatoes increases slower than on healthy plants. These findings demonstrated that ToCV infection decreased the performance of B. tabaci biotype Q on tomato plants.  相似文献

Lily symptomless virus (LSV) and Arabis mosaic virus (ArMV) cause severe losses of quantity and quality of lily flower and bulb production. Specificity, sensitivity and speed of detection methods for viruses need to be improved greatly to prevent LSV and ArMV from spreading from infected lilies. A dual IC‐RT‐PCR procedure for detection was developed in which the antibodies of LSV and ArMV were mixed and the mixture used to coat the PCR tubes. The particles of the two viruses were captured by the respective antibodies. Interference by other RNA viruses in infected lily was eliminated in the RT‐PCR. Also, an RNA extraction step was omitted. The dual IC‐RT‐PCR products of LSV and ArMV were 521 bp and 691 bp, respectively. The specificity of the method was validated; only LSV and ArMV of four viruses were detected by dual IC‐RT‐PCR. The sensitivity of the detection method is 1 mg leaf tissue and higher than DAS‐ELISA due to enrichment by dual immunocapture.  相似文献

The key regions in Panama involved in open field‐ and greenhouse‐grown commercial tomato production, including the Chiriquí, Veraguas, Herrera, Los Santos, Coclé and Panama Oeste provinces, were surveyed for the incidence and distribution of begomoviruses in the growing seasons of 2011 and 2012. The surveys took place in 14 of the 51 districts of the above‐mentioned provinces and comprised all relevant tomato production areas of the provinces. A total of 28 tomato plots were surveyed. The exact location of each plot was geo‐referenced using a hand‐held Global Positioning System unit. In total, 319 individual tomato plants (181 in 2011 and 138 in 2012) were sampled. Plants displayed diverse combinations of virus‐like symptoms of different severity, including necrosis, yellowing, mosaic, mottling, rolling, curling, distortion and puckering of leaves, reduced leaf size, and stunted growth. DNA was extracted from each plant for a subsequent polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis, using two sets of degenerate primers able to detect members of the genus Begomovirus. The samples displaying a positive reaction were subsequently analysed with specific primer pairs to identify the affecting begomoviruses. A total of 42.3% of all collected samples showed a positive signal to PCRs. Three begomovirus species were detected with the species‐specific set of primers; in particular, in the samples obtained in 2011, Potato yellow mosaic Panama virus (PYMPV), Tomato leaf curl Sinaloa virus (ToLCSiV) and Tomato yellow mottle virus (TYMoV) were detected, while in the 2012 samples, only PYMPV and ToLCSiV were found. To our knowledge, this is the first reported incidence of ToLCSiV and TYMoV in Panamanian tomato crops.  相似文献

Soybean crops showing systemic mottling, mosaic and leaf deformation were observed at high disease incidences (25.1–71.0%) in the kharif season of 2011 and 2012 in the experimental farm of the Indian Agricultural Research Institute (IARI), New Delhi. Symptomatic soybean leaves contained flexuous particles (650 × 12 nm), suggesting an infection by a Carlavirus. The causal virus was characterized as a strain of Cowpea mild mottle virus (CPMMV) on the basis of mechanical inoculation, whitefly transmission, seed transmission and sequencing of the viral genome. This is the first report of natural infection by a distinct strain of CPMMV in soybean in India.  相似文献

The one‐step real‐time turbidity loop‐mediated isothermal amplification assay (RealAmp) was developed to detect Hosta virus X (HVX), the most devastating threat to hosta industry. The reaction was performed in a single tube at 63°C for 15 min, and real‐time turbidimetry was used to monitor the amplification results. Specificity and sensitivity analyses demonstrated that this RealAmp method was sensitive as real‐time TaqMan RT‐PCR and about 100‐fold higher than conventional RT‐PCR with no cross‐reaction with other viral pathogens. Field samples detection showed that HVX could be identified effectively with this method. Overall, this RealAmp assay for HVX detection was simple, specific, sensitive, convenient and time‐saving and could assist in the quarantine measures for prevention and control of the disease caused by HVX.  相似文献

Beet yellows virus (BYV), a member of the Closteroviridae family, is one of the most important sugar beet yellowing viruses. The nine ORFs of BYV genome encode different proteins required for BYV life cycle. We sequenced a part of the genome of BYV Iranian isolate consisting of ORF6, ORF7 and ORF8. The primer pair BYVA/Z was used for amplification of this region in RT‐PCR. The amplicon (1615 bp) was cloned and sequenced. Comparisons showed the amplified segment is corresponding to ORF6, ORF7 and ORF8 of BYV genome encoding coat protein, p20 and p21 proteins, respectively. The ORF7 of BYV Iranian isolate overlaps with ORF6 and ORF8 in four and 26 nucleotides at 5′ and 3′ ends, respectively. The ORF7 of Iranian isolate of BYV was sequenced completely. However, approximately 24 nt. from the beginning of ORF6 and 23 nt. from end of ORF8, including the stop codon, were not determined. ORF6, ORF7 and ORF8 showed the highest similarity at nucleotide (98.3, 99.4 and 99.2%) and amino acid (97.4, 98.9 and 100%) sequence levels, with BYV Ukrainian isolate. Phylogenetic analysis of the deduced amino acid sequences of ORF6, ORF7 and ORF8 revealed closer relationship of Iranian isolate of BYV with BYV Ukrainian isolate than other BYV isolates available at GenBank.  相似文献

Bean pod mottle virus (BPMV) has been identified as an important pathogen for plant quarantine in China because large quantities of soya bean seeds (approximately 7 × 107 tons) are imported annually. To develop a practical detection programme for BPMV, a cocktail enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) nested RT‐PCR using a combination of serological and molecular methods was designed for soya bean seeds. The single‐vessel detection assay was performed in a 96‐well ELISA plate, which served as a carrier for the subsequent nested RT‐PCR assay. Assay specificity was demonstrated by the production of the expected 330‐ and 296‐bp bands using the external and internal primers, respectively. This method was 104‐fold more sensitive than immunocapture‐RT‐PCR (IC‐RT‐PCR). In particular, it is important to note that this assay resulted in successful micro‐extraction from soya bean seeds and combined the advantages of each individual technique. The cocktail ELISA nested RT‐PCR is a specific, sensitive, rapid and economical procedure to rapidly identify and characterize BPMV and could be suitable for both primary‐level platforms and laboratories.  相似文献

The presence of Orchid fleck virus (OFV) in Paraguay was confirmed in orchid plants collected during a survey carried out in 2013. Leaves displayed ringspot and fleck symptoms, and in infected tissues, non‐enveloped, short, rodlike viral particles were observed. Partial OFV N and L genes were amplified using specific and degenerate primers, respectively; the nucleotide sequences demonstrated high identities (98%) with other OFV isolates. Degenerate primers for the L gene were designed considering conserved regions within all of the available OFV sequences and those from the closely related isolates citrus leprosis virus nuclear type (CiLV‐N) and citrus necrotic spot virus. Degenerate primers were also successfully used for the detection of CiLV‐N from infected citrus samples.  相似文献

Electron microscopy studies were carried out to investigate the cytopathological changes induced in tomato leaves by Tomato torrado virus (ToTV) that infects tomato plants worldwide causing severe necrotic symptoms. Plants infected with one of the Polish isolates of ToTV were used for cytopathological research. The results revealed severe cellular alterations, especially in Solanum lycopersicum. Moreover, it was shown that crystalline aggregates of virions occurred not only within the phloem cells as it has been previously reported.  相似文献

Citrus is one of the most economically important fruit crops in the world. Citrus psorosis is a serious disease affecting mainly oranges and mandarins in Argentina and Uruguay. The causal agent is Citrus psorosis virus (CPsV), an ophiovirus with a tripartite ssRNA genome of negative polarity. The coat protein (CP), the most abundant viral protein in infected plants, has been used to detect CPsV by TAS‐ELISA, but only biological indexing, requiring 1 year, is the current and validated technique for diagnosis of citrus psorosis. In this study, a SYBR Green RT‐qPCR protocol was developed, with primers designed to the most conserved region of the cp gene. We tested their specificity and sensitivity in comparison with TAS‐ELISA. This RT‐qPCR was applied successfully to field samples from Argentina, to a variety of isolates from different countries maintained in the greenhouse, to young seedlings and old trees from a psorosis natural transmission plot, and to transgenic citrus expressing the cp gene of CPsV or a fragment thereof. This method allowed accurate quantification of viral titer and cp gene expression in transgenic plants, which could not be detected previously. The sensitivity and reliability of quantitative CPsV detection were improved with greater speed using commercial reagents, and the sensitivity was three orders of magnitude higher than that of TAS‐ELISA. All these data encourage its validation.  相似文献

Observations made in Mali strongly suggest that Rice yellow mottle virus (RYMV) is spread by weaverbirds (Quelea quelea) below and around baobab trees (Adansonia digitata) in which they nest. Rice leaves in bird nests appeared to be infected. In Spain, an infection of Southern bean mosaic virus (SBMV) in string (climbing) beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) was apparently introduced and spread by sparrows (Passer domesticus) judging from the damage caused on flowers and bean pods. Damaged leaves and pods on SBMV‐infected plants were also found in a screenhouse visited by sparrows and bulbuls (Pycnonotus barbatus) in Morocco. These observations showed that both viruses could be spread by birds when either collecting infected leaves for nesting or feeding on infected plants.  相似文献
