Abstract: | 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. |
