  • Relatives of Temperate Fruits) of the Book Series, "Wild Crop Relatives: Genetic, Genomic and Breeding Resources Ed C
    Volume 6 (Relatives of Temperate Fruits) of the book series, "Wild Crop Relatives: Genetic, Genomic and Breeding Resources ed C. Kole 2011 p179-197 9 Rubus J. Graham* and M. Woodhead Scottish Crop Research Institute, Dundee, DD2 5DA, UK *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract The Rosaceae family consists of around 3, 000 species of which 500 belong to the genus Rubus. Ploidy levels range from diploid to dodecaploid with a genomic number of 7, and members can be difficult to classify into distinct species due to hybridization and apomixes. Species are distributed widely across Asia, Europe, North and South America with the center of diversity now considered to be in China, where there are 250-700 species of Rubus depending on the taxonomists. Rubus species are an important horticultural source of income and labor being produced for the fresh and processing markets for their health benefits. Blackberries and raspberries have a relatively short history of less than a century as cultivated crops that have been enhanced through plant breeding and they are only a few generations removed from their wild progenitor species. Rubus sp. are typically found as early colonizers of disturbed sites such as pastures, along forest edges, in forest clearings and along roadsides. Blackberries are typically much more tolerant of drought, flooding and high temperatures, while red raspberries are more tolerant of cold winters. Additionally, they exhibit vigorous vegetative reproduction by either tip layering or root suckering, permitting Rubus genotypes to cover large areas. The attractiveness of the fruits to frugivores, especially birds, means that seed dispersal can be widespread with the result that Rubus genotypes can very easily be spread to new sites and are very effective, high-speed invaders.

  • Wheat Streak Mosaic Virus on Wheat: Biology and Management
    Wheat Streak Mosaic Virus on Wheat: Biology and Management B.A.R. Hadi,1 M.A.C. Langham, L. Osborne, and K. J. Tilmon Plant Science Department, South Dakota State University, Brookings, SD 57006 1Corresponding author, e-mail: [email protected]. J. Integ. Pest Mngmt. 1(2): 2011; DOI: 10.1603/IPM10017 ABSTRACT. Wheat streak mosaic virus is a virus that infects wheat and is transmitted by the wheat curl mite. This virus is responsible for wheat streak mosaic, a widely distributed disease of wheat that can cause economically important yield losses. The current viral taxonomy, vector biology, disease cycle, and management options of Wheat streak mosaic virus are reviewed in this article. Key Words: Wheat streak mosaic virus; wheat curl mite Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/jipm/article/2/1/J1/2194262 by guest on 23 September 2021 Wheat streak mosaic virus infects both winter and spring wheat Wheat streak mosaic virus was originally placed in the genus Rymo- (Triticum aestivum L.) in the United States and abroad. Depending on virus with other mite-transmitted viruses of Potyviridae. A phyloge- environmental conditions (wet, dry, cool, or hot weather), yield loss netic analysis of Wheat streak mosaic virus using its completed because of Wheat streak mosaic virus infections can surpass 60% nucleotide sequence demonstrated that it shares most recent common (Langham et al. 2001a). Wheat streak mosaic virus is transmitted by ancestry with the whitefly-transmitted Sweet potato mild mottle virus the wheat curl mite, Aceria tosichella Keifer (Acari: Eriophyidae). and not with Ryegrass mosaic virus, the type member of genus Wheat is the preferred host for wheat curl mite and an excellent host Rymovirus.

Further three eriophyoid species were recorded for the first time in Hungary, viz. Aceria hippophaena (Nalepa, 1898) found on Hippophaë rhamnoides, Epitrimerus cupressi (Keifer, 1939) collected from Cupressus sempervirens and Epitrimerus tanaceti Boczek et Davis, 1984 associated with Tanacetum vulgare. The female of E. tanaceti is re-described, while the male and nymph are described for the first time. Keywords: Eriophyidae, Leipothrix, common zinnia, Asteraceae, Hungary. The large family Asteraceae (Compositae) contains 1,911 plant genera with 32,913 accepted species names (The Plant List, 2013). Representatives of the family Asteraceae are a dominant feature of the Hungarian flora with 267 recognised species. According to Király (2009) it amounts to 9.8% of the current vascular plants of Hungary. An ex- traordinary range of eriophyoids occupy the plants of this family.

  • Citrus Bud Mite (393)
    Pacific Pests, Pathogens and Weeds - Online edition Citrus bud mite (393) Common Name Citrus bud mite Scientific Name Aceria sheldoni. Previously, the mite was known as Eriophyes sheldoni. Distribution Asia, Africa, North and South America, the Caribbean, Europe, Oceania. It is recorded from Australia, Fiji, New Zealand, and Papua New Guinea. Hosts Photo 1. Grotesquely distorted lemon fruit, caused by the citrus bud mite, Aceria sheldoni. Citrus species, in particular, lemon and navel oranges; less on grapefruit. In New South Wales, Australia, infestations of Valencia oranges and mandarins is low. Symptoms & Life Cycle A mite belonging to the Eriophyid family that feeds in leaf and flower buds. The buds become thickened, twisted and bunched, and the blossoms deformed. As the fruits develop, the mites puncture the rind, feeding on the cell contents, and cause distortions and deep longitudinal grooves (Photo 1). There may be more than 100 mites in a bud. Severe attack results in fruits losing water, reduction in size, death and premature fruit drop. In Fiji, Swaine (1970)1 reports that the worst damage occurs on the spring flush of leaves. The mite is creamish white, cigar-shaped, 0.16 mm long, with two pairs of legs near the front end. Females lay up to 50 eggs, singly in the bud scales, which hatch after 2-5 days and feed inside the buds, passing through four nymph stages before adult. The life cycle is about 10- 15 days. Spread occurs as the mites move over the plant surface, but spread over greater distances occurs in rain splash, and further still on wind currents, birds, insects, machinery, and clothing of human beings.
