Begomovirus characterization, and development of phenotypic and DNA-based diagnostics for screening of okra genotype resistance against Bhendi yellow vein mosaic virus

چکیده
The leaf sample from okra plants showing the yellow vein mosaic disease symptoms was collected in Karnataka state, India. The genome of the virus was amplified, cloned and sequenced. Sequence analysis revealed that the viral genome (GU112065) is 2,741 bp in length and genome is similar to that of monopartite begomoviruses originating from the Old World, with seven conserved ORFs. Further nucleotide (nts) sequence comparisons showed that the genome has the highest sequence identities of 96.1 % with Bhendi yellow vein mosaic virus (BYVMV) (GU112057) and 89.7 % with okra yellow vein mosaic virus (OYVMV) (AJ002451) infecting okra in India and Indian subcontinent. These results suggested that the isolate is a new strain of BYVMV. To identify the resistance source to BYVMV, the okra genotypes were screened under both artificial and natural conditions. None of the genotypes showed immunity to the disease. However, the genotypes Nun 1145 and Nun 1144 showed moderate resistance and genotypes M10, Nun 1142, Nun 1140 showed moderately susceptible reactions under both glass house and field conditions. Further, dot-blot hybridization using nonradioactive (digoxigenin) DNA probe showed that the virus was also detected in the symptomless plants.

Despite the importance of okra, as one of the important vegetable crop, very little attention has been paid to its genetic improvement using advanced biotechnological tools. The exploitation of marker assisted breeding in okra is often limited due to the availability of a few molecular markers, the absence of molecular genetic-map(s), and other molecular tools. Chromosome linkage-groups were no...

Background: Spine gourd (Momordica dioica Roxb. Willd) is one of the important cucurbitaceous crops grown across the world for vegetable and medicinal purposes. Diseases caused by the DNA viruses are becoming the limiting factors for the production of spine gourd reducing its potential yield. For the commercial cultivation of the spine gourd, propagation material used by most o...

Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) is a major tomato virus in tropical and subtropical regions. In this study, 134 accessions of Solanum lycopersicum and six accessions of Solanum peruvianum were assessed for resistance to an Iranian isolate of TYLCV. Plants were inoculated using whiteflies (Bemisia tabaci) and the reaction of plants was evaluated based on either disease symptoms or viral DN...

Two bipartite begomoviruses, Indian cassava mosaic virus (ICMV) and Sri Lankan cassava mosaic virus (SLCMV), have been isolated from mosaic-diseased cassava originating from central India and Sri Lanka, respectively. ICMV was transmitted with low efficiency from cassava to Nicotiana benthamiana by sap inoculation to give leaf curl symptoms. SLCMV was much more virulent in this host, producing s...
