Tomato spotted wilt virus

Tomato spotted wilt virus.

Growers in Georgia first noted problems in their peppers and onions during the last week of March 1989. Thrips populations combined with further field symptoms and the verification of the disease triggered a massive insecticide spray program in Georgia. Monitor was first used in early May followed by combinations of Orthene, Cygon and Thiodan. Most fields had less than 1% infection prompting a ...

The molecular population genetics of the Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) genome.

RNA viruses are characterized by high genetic variability resulting in rapid adaptation to new or resistant hosts. Research for plant RNA virus genetic structure and its variability has been relatively scarce compared to abundant research done for human and animal RNA viruses. Here, we utilized a molecular population genetic framework to characterize the evolution of a highly pathogenic plant R...

Complete Nucleotide Sequence of Australian Tomato spotted wilt virus Isolate TSWV-QLD2

The complete nucleotide (nt) sequence of an Australian isolate of Tomato spotted wilt virus was determined by deep RNA sequencing and deep small RNA sequencing. The tripartite genome consists of an 8,914-nt L segment, a 4,851-nt M segment, and a 2,987-nt S segment.

Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus on Peanuts

I the last decade, tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) has become widely distributed across Alabama on many field, vegetable, and floral crops. About 300 plant species, mainly broadleafs, are hosts of TSWV. In addition to peanut, other important crops grown in the Southeast that are susceptible to this virus include tomato, pepper, potato, cucurbits, lettuce, eggplant, and tobacco. Chrysanthemum, ...
