  • Viral Diseases of Cucurbits
    report on RPD No. 926 PLANT December 2012 DEPARTMENT OF CROP SCIENCES DISEASE UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS AT URBANA-CHAMPAIGN VIRAL DISEASES OF CUCURBITS Most common viral diseases of cucurbits in Illinois are cucumber mosaic (Cucumber mosaic virus), papaya ringspot (Papaya ringspot virus), squash mosaic (Squash mosaic virus), watermelon mosaic (Watermelon mosaic virus), and zucchini yellow mosaic (Zucchini yellow mosaic virus). Depends on the time of infection, viral diseases could cause up to 100% yield losses in cucurbit fields in Illinois. Statewide surveys and laboratory and greenhouse tests conducted during 2004-2006 showed that Watermelon mosaic virus (WMV) was the most prevalent virus in commercial gourd, pumpkin, and squash fields in Illinois. Squash mosaic virus (SqMV) was the second most prevalent virus in commercial gourd, pumpkin, and squash fields. SqMV was detected in more counties than any other five viruses. Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), Papaya ringspot virus (PRSV), and Zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV) were less prevalent in commercial gourd, pumpkin, and squash fields. All of five viruses were present alone and mixed in the samples tested. Earlier in the growing seasons (July and early August), single-virus infections were detected. Mixed infections were more common from mid August until the end of the growing season in October. Dual infection of WMV and SqMV was the most prevalent mixed virus infection detected in the fields. Most viruses infecting pumpkin and squash showed similar symptoms. The most common symptoms observed in the commercial fields and in the greenhouse studies were light- and dark- green mosaic, puckering, veinbanding, veinclearing, and deformation of leaves of gourd, pumpkin, and squash.

Received: 13 May 2020; Accepted: 15 July 2020; Published: date Abstract: Potyviruses are the largest group of plant infecting RNA viruses that cause significant losses in a wide range of crops across the globe. The majority of viruses in the genus Potyvirus are transmitted by aphids in a non-persistent, non-circulative manner and have been extensively studied vis-à-vis their structure, taxonomy, evolution, diagnosis, transmission and molecular interactions with hosts. This comprehensive review exclusively discusses potyviruses and their transmission by aphid vectors, specifically in the light of several virus, aphid and plant factors, and how their interplay influences potyviral binding in aphids, aphid behavior and fitness, host plant biochemistry, virus epidemics, and transmission bottlenecks. We present the heatmap of the global distribution of potyvirus species, variation in the potyviral coat protein gene, and top aphid vectors of potyviruses. Lastly, we examine how the fundamental understanding of these multi-partite interactions through multi-omics approaches is already contributing to, and can have future implications for, devising effective and sustainable management strategies against aphid- transmitted potyviruses to global agriculture.

Present study was conducted to investigate the possibility of infection of Lupinus albus (Lupine) with Bean yellow mosaic virus. Virus isolate was identified by detection of the coat protein gene amplified by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and also via Chenopodium Amaranticolor as a diagnostic host plant. Results showed that infection can be induced under greenhouse conditions and infected plants showed a considerable level of mosaic symptoms. As disease development in infected plants is always associated with physiological and chemical changes, some metabolic alterations parameters have been evaluated like photosynthetic pigment contents, total carbohydrate content, total soluble protein, total protein, total free amino acid, proline induction, total phenolics, salicylic acid, and abscisic acid content in healthy and infected lupine plants. Results showed a great variation in all the biochemical categories in Lupinus albus infected with bean yellow mosaic virus as compared to healthy plants.

    Viral diseases in faba bean, chickpeas, lentil and lupins. Impacts, vectors/causes and management strategies for 2021 Joop van Leur and Zorica Duric (NSW DPI, Tamworth Agricultural Research Institute) Key words faba bean viruses, Bean yellow mosaic virus, Alfalfa mosaic virus, aphids GRDC codes DAN00202, DAN00213/BLG209, DAN00213/BLG204 Take home messages • The severe virus epidemic in faba bean in northern NSW during 2020 was initiated by early and massive flights of aphids (mainly cowpea aphids) that carried Bean yellow mosaic virus (BYMV) into the crops • After a 2-year drought, heavy January and February rains in north-west NSW triggered the emergence of naturalised medics and other pasture legumes, which allowed a build-up of aphids and virus prior to the emergence of faba bean crops • Most faba bean crops were sown into bare ground as cereal stubble was lacking after the extended drought. Lack of standing cereal stubble or uneven emergence makes pulse crops particularly vulnerable to early aphid infections • Relatively mild and dry conditions during the start of the season favoured aphid multiplication in the faba bean crops and a fast spread of virus from initial infection foci • Co-infections of BYMV and Alfalfa mosaic virus (AMV) caused particularly severe symptoms in several crops • Both BYMV and AMV are non-persistently transmitted viruses that require only a short probing period by a viruliferous aphid to infect a plant. Slow-acting insecticides like imidacloprid applied to seed will not prevent infection of non-persistently

Most potyvirids (i.e. viruses belonging to the RNA viruses have very compact genomes and so provide a Potyviridae family) have monopartite, single-stranded and unique opportunity to study how evolution works to optimize the positive-sense genomes of around 10 000 nucleotides that are use of very limited genomic information. A widespread viral encapsidated by multiple units of a single coat protein (CP) in flex- strategy to solve this issue concerning the coding space relies on uous and filamentous virus particles of 680–900 nm in length and the expression of proteins with multiple functions. Members of 11–14 nm in diameter (Kendall et al., 2008). Exceptionally, bymo- the family Potyviridae, the most abundant group of RNA viruses viruses are peculiar in this regard, as they have a bipartite genome in plants, offer several attractive examples of viral factors which that is encapsidated separately. Inside the infected cells, the viral play roles in diverse infection-related
