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

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 mo...

Description
Summary: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.
