福州市发生由木尔坦棉花曲叶病毒引起的朱槿曲叶病

棉花曲叶病是世界棉花生产上最具毁灭性的病毒病害,其主要病原木尔坦棉花曲叶病毒(Cotton leaf curlMultan virus,CLCuMV)已经入侵我国广东、广西、海南等省多个地理区域,扩散危害范围日益加大.2011-2012年调查发现福建省厦门、福州和宁德等多个城市绿化植物朱槿(Hibiscus rosa-sinensis)发生朱槿曲叶病的流行.应用双生病毒通用引物以及烟粉虱生物型鉴定的通用引物,通过PCR扩增、序列分析等方法,分别检测或鉴定了福州市朱槿曲叶病的病原、介体烟粉虱的生物型以及朱槿病株上烟粉虱的带毒率.结果显示:福州市朱槿曲叶病的病原是木尔坦棉花曲叶病毒,与CLCuMV广东分离物和广西分离物的相似性高达99.6％以上;介体烟粉虱生物型为B型,病株上烟粉虱的带毒率为100％.试验结果说明CLCuMV已经扩散至福建省,应警惕和控制木尔坦棉花曲叶病毒的进一步扩散和危害.     

北京地区番茄黄化曲叶病毒病的鉴定及防治对策

番茄黄化曲叶病毒病是一种由烟粉虱传播的病毒病,给番茄生产造成严重威胁。2009年在北京郊区调查时发现部分保护地种植的番茄植株表现典型黄化曲叶症状。通过提取典型症状样品总DNA利用粉虱传双生病毒检测简并引物PA/PB,进行PCR扩增到541bp的特异条带。通过测序和核苷酸序列比对表明该序列与番茄黄化曲叶病毒序列相似性最高为99%。分子检测结果表明北京郊区部分保护地种植的番茄已被烟粉虱传播的番茄黄化曲叶病毒侵染危害。     

Association of Tomato leaf curl Joydebpur virus and a betasatellite with leaf curl disease of eggplant

Leaf samples (five) from brinjal/eggplant fields showing upward leaf curling symptoms were collected from Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh state, India. The full length genome of begomovirus and associated betasatellite were amplified by PCR, cloned and sequenced. Sequences of homologous DNA-A and its betasatellite in all samples were the same. The samples failed to amplify DNA-B, suggesting that the begomovirus associated with leaf curl disease of eggplant was monopartite. The complete genome (homologous of DNA-A) consists of 2758 nts, whereas the betasatellite has 1352 nts and the genome organization is typical of Old World begomoviruses. The sequence analysis showed high levels of nucleotide sequence identity (79.8–91.7%) of virus with Tomato leaf curl Joydebpur virus (ToLCJoV) infecting chilli in India, suggesting it as a strain of ToLCJoV based on the current ICTV taxonomic criteria for begomovirus strain demarcation. However, the betasatellite associated was identified as a variant of Tomato leaf curl Bangladesh betasatellite (ToLCBDB), with which it shared highest sequence identity of 84.7–94.8%. Phylogenetic analyses of the genome further supported the above results. The recombination analyses of both genome and betasatellite showed that a major part of genome sequences are derived from begomoviruses (ToLCJoV, ChiLCuV, AEV) infecting chilli, tomato, ageratum and betasatellite from PaLCuB as the foremost parents in evolution, suggesting this as a new recombinant virus strain. This is the first report of a monopartite begomovirus and a betasatellite molecule associated with the leaf curl disease of eggplant.

Role of sponge gourd in apical leaf curl disease of potato in Northern India

Potato (Solanum tuberosum) is one of the important vegetable crops in the world and its production is seriously affected by apical leaf curl disease in northern India. This paper reveals the role of cucurbits in maintaining Tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus (ToLCNDV) and Potato apical leaf curl (PALCD) disease in that region. The affected plants showed severe leaf curling and stunted growth. The begomovirus causing leaf curling and mosaic disease in cucurbits could be easily transmitted by the whitefly to potato crops and develop apical leaf curl disease in northern India. The movement of the virus by whiteflies from cucurbits to potato and tomato is possible because of overlapping of planting and harvesting dates of these crops. The causal virus was identified as a begomovirus on the basis of whitefly transmission, PCR, dot blot hybridization, cloning and sequencing of the coat protein gene. The comparison of full length coat protein gene sequence homology revealed that 90% identity with the coat protein gene of ToLCNDV- [Luffa] isolate and the phylogenetic tree derived from these sequences with other selected begomoviruses formed a close cluster with ToLCNDV isolates. The findings proved that the virus causing disease in cucurbits could easily move to tomato and potato and cause leaf curl disease naturally. This is the first observation on the role of sponge gourd for maintenance of ToLCNDV and serving as a host for PALCD in northern India. The findings indicate that the causal organism is a strain of ToLCNDV.     

Preliminary investigation of the causal agent(s) of a disease causing leaf curl of tobacco in South Africa

A high incidence (86%) of potyvirus infection was noted in tobacco plants exhibiting a form of leaf curl in South Africa. Despite leaf curl being reported in the literature to be of geminiviral aetiology, no geminiviruses were detected. Furthermore, no other virus particles were detected by virus purification, TEM and serology. Twelve species of dsRNA were consistently isolated from these tobacco plants, but were absent from other forms of leaf curl-affected and healthy tobacco. Aphid and mechanical inoculation demonstrated that the purified potyvirus(es) did not cause leaf curl symptoms, but rather mild mottle and mosaic symptoms in tobacco. Partial characterization of the potyvirus preparation showed a possible relationship to a South African strain of potato virus Y. Because potyvirus-inoculated plants did not manifest leaf curl symptoms, and because leaf curl symptoms were noted in some plants not infected with a potyvirus, it was concluded that the potyvirus is not involved in the leaf curl aetiology, but causes a latent infection, the symptoms of which are masked. The pattern of the dsRNA banding, induction of enations and lack of mechanical and seed transmission are common to plant reoviruses. The possibility of a phytoreovirus involvement in this form of leaf curl is currently being investigated. The results from this study suggest that tobacco leaf curl disease worldwide, with regard to geminiviruses, be re-evaluated.     

浙南菜区番茄曲叶病毒病发生规律

通过两年调查,明确了浙南菜区越冬番茄曲叶病毒病的主要侵染期在9月下旬至10月上旬,即番茄苗龄20~30 d。温州近郊常年蔬菜生产基地,番茄曲叶病毒病的侵染循环主要通过携毒烟粉虱在越冬番茄和早春番茄间传播完成。苍南、瑞安等季节性番茄生产基地,该病的侵染循环主要通过携毒烟粉虱在越冬番茄、大田番茄苗和夏季南瓜等中间寄主传播完成。随着播种期推迟,番茄曲叶病毒病发生轻,目前浙南菜区生产上‘托马雷斯’、‘好韦斯特’、‘合作903’等主栽番茄品种均表现感病。田间调查还表明,通过50目防虫网覆盖育苗栽培可以有效控制番茄曲叶病毒病发生,防控效果达到90%以上。     

Tomato leaf curl Guangxi virus is a distinct monopartite begomovirus species

Three begomovirus isolates were obtained from tomato plants showing leaf curl symptoms in Guangxi province of China. Typical begomovirus DNA components representing the three isolates (GX-1, GX-2 and GX-3) were cloned and their full-length sequences were determined to be 2752 nucleotides. Nucleotide identities among the three viral sequences were 98.9–99.7%, but all shared <86.7% nucleotide sequence identity with other reported begomoviruses. The sequence data indicated that GX-1, GX-2 and GX-3 are isolates of a distinct begomovirus species for which the name Tomato leaf curl Guangxi virus (ToLCGXV) is proposed. Further analysis indicated that ToLCGXV probably originated through recombination among viruses related to Ageratum yellow vein virus, Tomato leaf curl China virus and Euphorbia leaf curl virus. PCR and Southern blot analyses demonstrated that isolates GX-1 and GX-2 were associated with DNAβ components, but not isolate GX-3. Sequence comparisons revealed that GX-1 and GX-2 DNAβ components shared the highest sequence identity (86.2%) with that of Tomato yellow leaf curl China virus (TYLCCNV). An infectious construct of ToLCGXV isolate GX-1 (ToLCGXV-GX) was produced and determined to be highly infectious in Nicotiana benthamiana, N. glutinosa, tobacco cvs. Samsun and Xanthi, tomato and Petunia hybrida plants inducing leaf curl and stunting symptoms. Co-inoculation of tomato plants with ToLCGXV-GX and TYLCCNV DNAβ resulted in disease symptoms similar to that caused by ToLCGXV-GX alone or that observed in infected field tomato plants.     

2009年河北省番茄黄化曲叶病毒病发生危害和分布

2009年,河北省主要番茄种植区发生一种疑似番茄黄化曲叶病毒病的新病害。本文在田间调查、取样的基础上,采用酶联免疫吸附测定(ID-ELISA)方法对病原进行鉴定,明确了番茄黄化曲叶病在河北省的分布与危害:至2009年9月,番茄黄化曲叶病毒病已在河北省南部的邯郸、邢台和石家庄,中部的保定和衡水等地严重发生,河北省中北部廊坊、沧州南部靠近衡水的部分地市亦零星发生此病害,应用TYLCV检测试剂盒检测的29个品种58个标样A405值达到2.1～7.5。唐山、承德地区尚未发现番茄黄化曲叶病的危害,4个县市9个番茄品种检测结果均呈阴性。     

Detection and typing of tomato yellow leaf curl viruses

The denomination Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) comprises several viruses that cause severe damage to tomato crops in warm and temperate regions worldwide. TYLCV viruses are widespread in the Mediterranean Basin, in which two species have been reported: Tomato yellow leaf curl Sardinia virus (TYLCSV) and Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV, previously TYLCV-Is). The availability of methods convenient for the diagnosis of these viruses is essential. We have investigated several alternatives for reliable detection and differentiation of TYLCSV and TYLCV. Triple-antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (TAS-ELISA) proved to be very useful for large-scale diagnosis in field situations, but lacked discriminating capacity and sensitivity in the stages of infection in which low virus titre is present. The DNA-based methods are suited to laboratory operations and plant disease clinics, where accuracy of detection and discrimination of viruses is required. Polymerase chain reaction–restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR–RFLP) was the most reliable method to discriminate between TYLCSV and TYLCV, but is not suited to high sample turnover. For large-scale testing, tissue print hybridization assay provides a reliable and sensitive alternative to PCR.     

Tomato dwarf leaf curl virus, a new bipartite geminivirus associated with tomatoes and peppers in Jamaica and mixed infection with tomato yellow leaf curl virus

Genomic characterization using nonradioactive probes, polymerase chain reaction with degenerate primers for whitefly transmitted geminiviruses and nucleotide sequencing were used to describe a new bipartite geminivirus, associated with dwarfing and leaf curling of tomatoes and peppers in Jamaica. Partial DNA-A and DNA-B clones were obtained. DNA sequence analysis showed that tomato and pepper samples have a similar geminivirus associated with them. Nucleotide sequence identity > 92% between the common regions of DNA-A and DNA-B confirmed the bipartite nature of the Jamaican geminivirus isolates. Nucleotide sequence comparisons of DNA-A and DNA-B with those of geminiviruses representing the major phylogenetic groups of Western Hemisphere geminiviruses showed the greatest similarity to potato yellow mosaic virus and members of the Abutilon mosaic virus cluster of geminiviruses. This new virus is given the name tomato dwarf leaf curl virus (TDLCV) because of the dwarfing and leaf curling symptoms associated with infected tomato plants. Polymerase chain reaction and Southern hybridization showed mixed infections of TDLCV with tomato yellow leaf curl virus from Israel in 16% of the field samples of tomatoes and peppers.

陕西省早春茬番茄定植时间与番茄黄化曲叶病毒病发生的关系

为了明确早春茬番茄定植时间与番茄黄化曲叶病毒病发生的关系,采取小区对比试验对不同定植时间下番茄上烟粉虱种群消长动态、番茄黄化曲叶病毒病发病株率、发病程度及番茄产量和经济效益等进行了系统调查。结果表明:番茄田烟粉虱种群消长动态在年度间基本相同,4月上旬始见,5月中旬达到高峰,烟粉虱发生后15 d左右出现番茄黄化曲叶病毒病症状。4月上旬以前定植番茄黄化曲叶病毒病发生较轻,单位面积产量和经济效益较高,4月上旬以后定植发病较重,产量和经济效益较低。定植时间(X_1)与番茄黄化曲叶病毒发病株率(Y_1)及病情指数(Y_2)均呈显著正相关,其相关关系为Y_1=1.470 4X_1+7.947 2,Y_2=0.876 7X_1-6.441 7。生产实践中采取双膜或三膜覆盖栽培等措施适当提早定植,避免番茄感病期与烟粉虱发生高峰期相遇,在不使用任何防治措施下,可有效预防番茄黄化曲叶病毒病暴发成灾。     

木尔坦棉花曲叶病毒已对我国棉花生产构成严重威胁

木尔坦棉花曲叶病毒是引起巴基斯坦和印度棉花曲叶病流行的主要病原之一,是由烟粉虱以持久方式传播。近年来,在广东和广西分别发现了严重侵染朱槿和黄秋葵的木尔坦棉花曲叶病毒。虽然广东和广西不种植棉花,但该病毒传播介体烟粉虱在广东、广西及我国棉花产区都有分布。因此该病毒的入侵,对我国棉花生产构成严重威胁。

Malvastrum leaf curl Guangdong virus is a distinct monopartite begomovirus

Virus isolates GD6, GD7, GD8, GD9 and GD10 were obtained from Malvastrum coromandelianum showing leaf curl symptoms in Guangdong Province of China. A specific 500 bp product was consistently detected in total DNA extracts, amplified with universal primers specific for members of the genus Begomovirus. Analysis of their partial DNA sequences revealed that they are isolates of the same begomovirus species, sharing 92·8%–97·1% nucleotide sequence identity. The complete DNA sequences of both GD6 and GD9 were found to be 2767 nucleotides, with all the characteristic features of begomovirus genome organization. The two isolates have less than 85·2% nucleotide sequence identity with other reported begomoviruses. Consequently, GD6 and GD9 are considered to be isolates of a novel begomovirus species, for which the name Malvastrum leaf curl Guangdong virus (MLCuGdV) is proposed. Sequence analyses suggest that MLCuGdV may have arisen by recombination between viruses related to Papaya leaf curl China virus , Tomato leaf curl Philippines virus and other undiscovered virus ancestors. Neither the DNA-B component nor the DNAβ molecule associated with these begomovirus isolates was found. An infectious clone of GD6 was constructed. GD6 efficiently infected Nicotiana benthamiana , N. glutinosa and Petunia hybrida by agro-inoculation, and Malvastrum coromandelianum by whitefly transmission, inducing leaf curling, vein swelling and stunting symptoms. GD6 was also infectious in N. tabacum , but did not induce observable disease symptoms.     

番茄黄化曲叶病毒在湖北首次报道

2014年春季,在湖北省武汉市发现种植的番茄表现植株矮缩,叶片上卷,叶缘黄化等症状。PCR检测结果显示,所有采集的病样中均存在菜豆金色花叶病毒属病毒。进一步通过滚环扩增方法获得了该病毒的湖北分离物HB01的全基因组。基因克隆及序列分析结果表明,该病毒基因组全长为2 781nt,与已报道的番茄黄化曲叶病毒(TYLCV)各分离物同源性在89.0%以上,而与来自中国不同地区的TYLCV分离物的同源率均在97.0%以上。因此,HB01属于TYLCV的一个分离物。     

从福建分离的广东赛葵曲叶病毒的分子特征

 从中国福建省表现曲叶和脉突症状的赛葵上分离到病毒分离物FJ1~FJ6。利用菜豆金色花叶病毒属病毒的特异性简并引物PA/PB,在所有6个分离物中都分离到了约500bp长度的病毒部分DNA片段。这些DNA片段与已报道的广东赛葵曲叶病毒(Malvastrum leaf curl Guangdong virus,MLCuGdV)的核苷酸序列同源性高达90%-93%。随机挑选FJ3分离物进行全基因组DNA的克隆测序。结果表明,FJ3 DNA全长2765个核苷酸,具有典型的双生病毒科病毒的基因组结构特征,与MLCuGdV的同源性为92.9%,表明FJ3是MLCuGdV的一个分离物。系统进化分析表明,除了MLCuGdV,FJ3与其它赛葵上分离到的双生病毒的亲缘关系都较远,而与分离自中国南方番木瓜上的双生病毒聚成簇,有较近的亲缘关系。进一步比较分析各蛋白编码的氨基酸序列发现,FJ3可能是一个种间重组分子,它可能是由中国番木瓜曲叶病毒或广东番木瓜曲叶病毒和另外的未知病毒重组产生的。     

Detection of Tomato yellow leaf curl Sardinia virus in Tunisia

Surveys were undertaken for tomato yellow leaf curl viruses in the main Tunisian tomato-growing areas in fields and plastic houses. Symptoms included yellowing, leaf curling and stunting. Collected samples were submitted to molecular analysis using two approaches: (1) hybridization tests with two DNA probes corresponding to an intergenic region derived from a cloned dimer of an Egyptian full-length TYLCV and to the coat region of a Tunisian TYLCV isolate; (2) PCR amplification coupled to RFLP allowing both identification and clustering of Tunisian isolates. Only Tomato yellow leaf curl Sardinia virus was detected in Tunisia.     

Tomato leaf curl Karnataka virus from Bangalore, India, Appears to be a Recombinant Begomovirus

ABSTRACT The genome of Tomato leaf curl virus (ToLCV) from Bangalore, India, a whitefly-transmitted geminivirus, was cloned (pIND9) and sequenced. The circular DNA of 2,759 nucleotides (U38239) is organized similarly to that of other begomoviruses with monopartite genomes. Comparison of the nucleotide sequence of pIND9 with other tomato-associated begomoviruses from India (Tomato leaf curl Bangalore virus [ToLCBV, Z48182]) and Tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus-Severe (ToLCNdV-Svr, U15015) showed moderate DNA sequence identities (82 to 87%) between capsid protein (CP) genes but low identities (66 to 67%) for the intergenic regions and the replication-associated protein (Rep) genes (75 to 81% identity). Phylogenetic trees generated with nucleotide sequences of the Rep and CP genes of 26 begomoviruses indicated that this ToLCV is distinct from other begomoviruses and that it may be a recombinant virus derived from at least three different viral lineages. Tomatoes (Lycopersicon esculentum) inoculated with the cloned DNA monomer of ToLCV (pIND9) via particle bombardment developed leaf curling and yellowing symptoms. The virus was transmitted by Bemisia tabaci biotype B from tomatoes infected via particle bombardment to healthy tomatoes and by sap inoculation from infected tomatoes to tomato, Nicotiana benthamiana and N. tabacum. This ToLCV is a distinct member of the genus Begomovirus from India that differs from the previously characterized Tomato leaf curl Sadasivanagar virus isolate Bangalore 1 (L12739), ToLCBV (Z48182), ToLCBV isolate Bangalore 4 (AF165098), and the bipartite ToLCNdV (U15015, U15016). Thus, this ToLCV is named Tomato leaf curl Karnataka virus (ToLCKV).
