Article Abstract

Contigs with sequence homologies to apple chlorotic leaf spot virus (ACLSV) were identified by high-throughput sequencing analysis in three peach samples. Complete genomic sequences of RP19-1 and RP19-2 of the virus consisted of 7,466 and 7,465 nucleotides (nts), respectively, excluding the poly (A) tails. They shared the highest identity with Ta Tao 5, but lower than 70% of sequence similarity with other ACLSV isolates. Furthermore, phylogenetic analysis revealed that these two isolates clustered with Ta Tao 5, which is distinct from other ACLSV isolates. According to the criteria for species demarcation within the genus Trichovirus, these two isolates as well as Ta Tao 5 should be recognized as a new virus species, tentatively named "Peach chlorotic leaf spot virus".

Passion fruit viral diseases pose a significant threat to Kenya's passion fruit industry. To unravel the complexity of these diseases, comprehensive virus surveys were conducted across major passion fruit-growing counties. Passion fruit woodiness disease symptoms, like fruit hardening, chlorotic mottling, and leaf distortion, were prevalent.

Sheath blight (ShB), caused by the necrotrophic fungus (), poses severe threats to global rice production. Developing a resistant variety with an ShB-resistance gene is one of most efficient and economical approaches to control the disease. Here, we identified a highly conserved chloroplast-localized stem-loop-binding protein encoding gene (), which shows great potential in developing an ShB-resistant variety.

Viruses of cultivated apple ( × ) are believed to be transmitted nearly exclusively via vegetative propagation, with few known biotic vectors and limited evidence of vertical transmission. To evaluate the seed transmission capabilities of six viruses and one viroid of apple, a large-scale seedling grow-out experiment was conducted using seeds harvested from 51 trees infected by several combinations of six viruses and one viroid. Virus detection via multiplex PCR-based amplicon sequencing followed by RT-qPCR validation demonstrated that citrus concave gum-associated virus and apple stem grooving virus were transmitted to seedlings at rates of 4.

Background: The Jerusalem sage () is a popular ornamental in Europe. In 2022, typical virus-like symptoms consisting of chlorotic rings and irregular patches were identified on leaves of this plant species in Lausanne, Switzerland.

Methods: High-throughput sequencing was used on symptomatic samples, which was followed by transmission electron microscopy, sap inoculations of indicator species, and RT-PCR analyses.
