  • Peanut Stunt Virus Infecting Perennial Peanuts in Florida and Georgia1 Carlye Baker2, Ann Blount3, and Ken Quesenberry4
    Plant Pathology Circular No. 395 Fla. Dept. of Agric. & Consumer Serv. ____________________________________________________________________________________July/August 1999 Division of Plant Industry Peanut Stunt Virus Infecting Perennial Peanuts in Florida and Georgia1 Carlye Baker2, Ann Blount3, and Ken Quesenberry4 INTRODUCTION: Peanut stunt virus (PSV) has been reported to cause disease in a number of economically important plants worldwide. In the southeastern United States, PSV is widespread in forage legumes and is considered a major constraint to productivity and stand longevity (McLaughlin et al. 1992). It is one of the principal viruses associated with clover decline in the southeast (McLaughlin and Boykin 1988). In 2002, this virus (Fig. 1) was reported in the forage legume rhizoma or perennial peanut, Arachis glabrata Benth. (Blount et al. 2002). Perennial peanut was brought into Florida from Bra- zil in 1936. In general, the perennial peanut is well adapted to the light sandy soils of the southern Gulf Coast region of the U.S. It is drought-tolerant, grows well on low-fertility soils and is relatively free from disease or insect pest problems. The rela- tively impressive forage yields of some accessions makes the perennial peanut a promising warm-sea- son perennial forage legume for the southern Gulf Coast. Due to its high-quality forage, locally grown perennial peanut hay increasingly competes for the million plus dollar hay market currently satisfied by imported alfalfa (Medicago sativa L). There are ap- proximately 25,000 acres of perennial peanut in Ala- bama, Georgia and Florida combined. About 1000 acres are planted as living mulch in citrus groves. Fig. 1. A field of ‘Florigraze’ showing the yellowing symptoms of Peanut Popular forage cultivars include ‘Arbrook’ and Stunt Virus.

    Plant Pathology Circular No. 261 Fla. Dept. Agric. & Consumer Serv. July 1984 Division of Plant Industry PEANUT STRIPE VIRUS C. L. Schoultiesl During the 1982 peanut growing season, virus symptoms previously unknown to the United States were observed in new peanut germplasm obtained from the People's Republic of China (3). This germplasm was under observation at the regional plant introduction station at the University of Georgia at Experiment. J. W. Demski (2) identified this virus as peanut stripe virus (PStV), which may be synonymous with a virus described recently from the People's Republic of China (5). In 1983, surveys of some commercial fields and many experimental peanut plantings of universities from Texas to Virginia and Florida indicated that the virus problem was predominantly limited to breeding plots (4). In early 1984, at least 40 seed lots from the Florida peanut breeding programs at Marianna and Gainesville and a limited number from foundation seed lots were indexed by J. W. Demski in Georgia (4). Four of the 40 lots were positive for PStV and were not planted this year. The virus was not detected in foundation seed, however. Concurrent with seed indexing, infected peanut plants from Georgia were received in the quarantine greenhouse at the Florida Division of Plant Industry. D. E. Purcifull of the Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences (IFAS), University of Florida, inoculated healthy peanuts with the virus. The virus was isolated and purified, and antiserum to the purified virus was produced (D. E. Purcifull and E. Hiebert, personal communication). During June 1984, PStV-infected plants were found in IFAS experimental plantings in Gainesville and Marianna.

Moreover, the insects from the Bradysia genus have a well-documented role in plant pathogenic fungi transmission. Here, a study on the potential of Bradysia impatiens to acquire and transmit the peanut stunt virus (PSV) from plant to plant was undertaken. Four-day-old larvae of B. impatiens were exposed to PSV-P strain by feeding on virus-infected leaves of Nicotiana benthamiana and then transferred to healthy plants in laboratory conditions. Using the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), real-time PCR (RT-qPCR), and digital droplet PCR (RT-ddPCR), the PSV RNAs in the larva, pupa, and imago of B. impatiens were detected and quantified.

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.

Species composition and dynamics of aphids and parasitoid wasps in maize fields in Northeastern China Ying Zhang1, Min-chi Zhao1, Jia Cheng1, Shuo Liu1, Hai-bin Yuan1 * 1 Jilin Agricultural University, Department of Plant Protection, Changchun,130118, China. *Corresponding author; [email protected] Abstract Maize, Zea mays L., is the most abundant field crop in China. Aphids are the most economically damaging pest on maize, particularly in the cotton agri-ecosystems of Jilin Province, northern China. Parasitic wasps are important natural enemies of aphids, but limited information exists about their species composition, richness and seasonal dynamics in northern China. In this study, the population dynamics of maize aphids and parasitoid wasps were assessed in relation to each other during the summer seasons of two consecutive years, 2018 and 2019. We selected maize fields in the Changchun, Songyuan, Huinan and Gongzhuling areas of Jilin Province. Four species of aphids were recorded from these maize fields: Rhopalosiphum padi (L), Rhopalosiphum maidis (Fitch), Aphis gossypii Glover and Macrosiphum miscanthi (Takahashi). The dominant species in each of the four areas were R. maids (Filch) and R. padi in Changchun, R .padi in Songyuan, A. gossypii and R. padi in Huinan, and A.gossypii and R.

  • Blackeye Cowpea Mosaic Virus (BICMV) in Yard-Long Bean in the Mariana Islands
    Micronesica 29(2): 101 111, 1996 Blackeye Cowpea Mosaic Virus (BICMV) in Yard-long Bean in the Mariana Islands 1 G. C. WALL, C. A. KIMMONS , A. T. WIECKO AND J. RICHARDSON AES/CA LS. University of Guam Mangi/ao, GU 96923 e-mail: gwall@uog9 .uog.edu Abstract-A mosaic disease of Vigna unguiculata subsp. sesquipedalis (asparagus bean or yard-long bean) was determined via host range stud­ ies, ring interface and PAS-ELISA tests to be consistent with the black­ eye cowpea mosaic virus (BlCMV). Sap inoculations of 39 legumes re­ sulted in 31 becoming infected, as did 9 of 24 non-legume species. Seed transmission occurred in 37% of yard-long bean seeds tested. The virus was transmitted by apterous Aphis craccivora in a non-persistent fash­ ion. Seed and aphid transmission are consistent with BlCMV. Other important crop plants infected included snap beans, winged bean, and yam beans Gicama). This is the first report of BICMV on winged bean (Psophocarpus tetragonolobus. Other less important crop plants infected were mung bean and sunnhemp . Of eleven yard-long bean cultivars tested with sap-inoculation, none showed resistance. Cultivar Green Ar­ row (Known-You Seed Co .) performed well with low disease incidence and high yields in field tests over 2 seasons. Introduction Yard-long and asparagus bean are two of the many common names given to Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp. subsp . sesquipedalis (L.) Verde . The species is well adapted in the Mariana Islands and is widely grown for local human consump­ tion. Although common snap bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is also grown, yard­ long bean is more popular because it grows better at lower elevations.
