警惕新德里番茄曲叶病毒在我国的传播和危害

新德里番茄曲叶病毒(tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus, ToLCNDV)是双生病毒科菜豆金色花叶病毒属病毒,由烟粉虱Bemisia tabaci以循环持久性方式传播,能对茄科和葫芦科等多种作物造成毁灭性的危害。近年来,ToLCNDV不断扩散蔓延至新的国家和地区。我国于2021年在浙江的温室番茄上发现了ToLCNDV的危害。本文综述了ToLCNDV的发生分布、基因组结构与进化、传播方式和寄主范围,提出了防范ToLCNDV在我国进一步传播和危害的防控建议。     

Emergence of tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus in Italy: estimation of incidence and genetic diversity

Tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus (ToLCNDV) is a bipartite begomovirus (family Geminiviridae) identified for the first time in 1995 in Asia, from where it spread into several countries of the Mediterranean basin. ToLCNDV was found in Spain in 2012, and subsequently in Tunisia and Italy. The first outbreak in Italy occurred at the end of 2015 in Trapani province (Sicily) on zucchini squashes. Then in 2016, ToLCNDV was found in infected zucchini plants in Campania, Lazio and Sardinia regions, and in 2017 in Calabria. This study addressed the dispersion and genetic diversity of ToLCNDV isolates in Italy. A total of 1400 plants were analysed. Phylogenetic analysis showed low variability among the Italian isolates, probably as a consequence of the recent introduction and rapid spread of this virus in Italy. Two statistically significant clusters were reported: one grouping only Italian isolates and the other grouping Italian, Spanish, Tunisian and Moroccan isolates. Furthermore, the highest incidence of ToLCNDV was observed in Sicily, although the disease also appears to be critical in other Italian regions. In this work, a high efficiency of ToLCNDV mechanical transmission into Cucurbita pepo, Cucumis melo inodorus and Cucumis melo cantalupensis has been demonstrated. The rapid spread of ToLCNDV in the Mediterranean basin represents a threat for horticultural production, thus it is very important to develop suitable crop management practices, applying genetic resistance strategies and more restrictive phytosanitary measures.     

Diversity analysis of Tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus-[potato], causing apical leaf curl disease of potato in India

The complete coat protein (cp) gene sequence of eighty Tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus-[potato] (ToLCNDV-[potato]) isolates collected from eleven states were determined. Phylogenetic analysis based on cp gene grouped the isolates into two major clades (I & II) and they shared 95.9–100.0% identity. The DNA A and DNA B of eight representative isolates (six from clade I and two from clade II) were 2739–2740 and 2692–2694 nts long and shared 94.6–99.4% and 97.2–99.5% homology within the isolates, respectively. Among the eight isolates, the DNA A of two isolates (Clade II), GWA-5 and FAI-19 had 94.6–95.3% sequence identity to other six isolates and formed a sub-clade within the ToLCNDV-[potato] isolates. Similar grouping was also revealed with AC1 and AC4 genes of these eight isolates. The DNA A components shared more than 90.0% identity with the DNA A of ToLCNDV isolates from cucurbitaceous crops, tomato, bhendi, 89.0–90.0% with ToLCNDV-papaya isolates and 70.4–74.0% with other tomato leaf curl viruses. Hence, the begomovirus infecting potatoes are the ToLCNDV isolates, designated as ToLCNDV-[potato]. Whereas, the DNA B components shared 86.6–91.7% identity with ToLCNDV isolates from cucurbits, tomato and bhendi. Evidence for intra-species recombination was detected only in DNA A with a maximum of three events in GWA-5 and FAI-19 isolates. Analysis of cp gene, DNA A, iterons and recombination events clearly indicate that two groups of ToLCNDV-[potato] infects potato in India.

Biological characterization of Tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus from Spain

Tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus (ToLCNDV; family Geminiviridae, genus Begomovirus) is an emerging virus in horticulture crops in Asia, and has recently been introduced in Spain, Tunisia and Italy. No betasatellite DNA was detected in infected tomato and zucchini squash samples from Spain, and agroinoculated viral DNA‐A and DNA‐B were sufficient to reproduce symptoms in plants of both crop species. Infected tomato and zucchini squash plants also served as inoculum sources for efficient transmission either mechanically or using Bemisia tabaci whiteflies. Cucumber, melon, watermelon, zucchini squash, tomato, eggplant and pepper, but not common bean, were readily infected using viruliferous whiteflies and expressed symptoms 8–15 days post‐inoculation. New full‐length sequences from zucchini squash and tomato indicated a high genetic homogeneity (>99% sequence identity) in the ToLCNDV populations in Spain, pointing to a single recent introduction event.     

浙南菜区番茄曲叶病毒病发生规律

Response of Cucurbita spp. to tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus inoculation and identification of a dominant source of resistance in Cucurbita moschata

Tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus is an emerging whitefly-borne species of begomovirus in Mediterranean regions that poses a severe threat to cucurbit crops of the genus Cucurbita. Until now, only two sources of resistance have been identified in Cucurbita spp., these being PI604506 (cv. Large Cheese) and PI381814 (Indian landrace), both of C. moschata. The resistance of cv. Large Cheese is conferred by a single recessive gene located on chromosome 8. The objective of the present investigation was to screen for tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus (ToLCNDV) resistance among 105 accessions drawn from five species of Cucurbita and, if high resistance was found in any of them, determine the mode of inheritance. Screening was conducted using whitefly-mediated inoculation on all 105 accessions. The accessions showing some resistance were further screened by mechanical inoculation as well as by quantitative PCR-based diagnostics. The results showed that, overall, the accessions of C. pepo and C. maxima were the most susceptible, those of C. argyrosperma and C. ecuadorensis intermediate, and those of C. moschata most resistant to ToLCNDV. Only one accession of C. moschata, BSUAL-252, originating from Japan, was highly resistant to ToLCNDV, showing no symptoms after either method of inoculation, and absence of virus accumulation. Upon crossing BSUAL-252 with a susceptible accession of C. moschata, BSUAL-265, the resistance was observed to be conferred by a single dominant gene. This gene is not linked to the genomic region on chromosome 8 where the locus of the previously identified recessive gene for ToLCNDV resistance resides.     

Farmers' perceptions and practices for managing tomato leaf curl virus disease in southern India

A survey of 174 tomato farmers in five districts of Karnataka State, South India, was conducted between March and July 1998 with the objectives of assessing farmers' knowledge and perceptions of tomato leaf curl virus disease (ToLCVD) and examining their current control practices. The findings showed that farmers were familiar with ToLCVD and regarded it as a serious constraint upon production, particularly in the hot season. However, only 2% of farmers were aware that tomato leaf curl virus (ToLCV) was transmitted by a whitefly vector, Bemisia tabaci . A similarly small number of farmers knew that ToLCVD was caused by a virus, whilst 86% of farmers believed that it was caused by high temperatures. Approximately 90% of farmers relied primarily on pesticides for control of ToLCVD. Few ToLCV-resistant varieties were available but one such variety, Avinash II, was grown by 13% of farmers in the hot season when incidence of the disease is highest. Farmers visiting experimental trials at a farmer field day, showed a strong interest in new advanced breeding tomato lines with resistance to ToLCV. Factors affecting the adoption of ToLCV-resistant varieties by tomato farmers are discussed.     

First natural co-occurrence of tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus DNA-A and chili leaf curl betasatellite on tomato plants (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Solanum lycopersicum</Emphasis> L.) in India

Tomato leaf curl disease (ToLCD) affected 25% of the tomato crop in Chitrakoot, India and symptomatic leaves were collected for molecular assay. The complete sequences of bipartite begomovirus DNA-A and a betasatellite DNA were amplified. In a sequence analysis, begomovirus DNA-A and betasatellite shared highest sequence identity (91–99%) with Tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus (ToLCNDV) DNA-A and chili leaf curl betasatellite (ChLCB), respectively. The virus was transmitted by whitefly to tomato plants and caused ToLCD symptoms with 70% transmission rate. To our knowledge, this is the first report of the natural occurrence of ToLCNDV and ChLCB in India.     

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.     

Screening Luffa germplasm and advanced breeding lines for resistance to Tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus

The two cultivated Luffa species can be severely infected by Tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus (ToLCNDV) with up to 100% yield loss. Here, 52 Luffa genotypes were screened for ToLCNDV resistance after natural field infection. Mean vulnerability index (VI) ranged from 0.00 to 75.33; genotypes IIHR-137 and IIHR-138 had no symptoms (VI 0), 16 genotypes were resistant (VI 0–25), 15 were moderately resistant (VI 26–50), and 19 were moderate to susceptible (VI?>?50). Ten of the most resistant genotypes and five susceptible checks were then challenge-inoculated using whiteflies or sap in an insect-proof net house; only IIHR-137 [L. cylindrica (L.) Roem.] was symptomless (VI 0.00), and 3–5% of plants of IIHR-138 [L. cylindrica (L.) Roem.] and IIHR-Sel-1 [L. acutangula (L.) Roxb.] had only mild symptoms; genotype Arka Prasan was most susceptible (VI 80.96). Asymptomatic plants were confirmed as infected using polymerase chain reaction. Susceptible genotypes rapidly developed leaf curling, then a severe mosaic 10 days post-inoculation. The resistant inbred lines identified are good candidates for a breeding program for ToLCNDV-resistant cultivars.
