Abstract
Trees and herbs that produce fruits represent the most valuable agricultural food commodities in the world. However, the yield of these crops is not fully achieved due to biotic factors such as bacteria, fungi, and viruses. Viruses are capable of causing alterations in plant growth and development, thereby impacting the yield of their hosts significantly. In this work, we first compiled the world's most comprehensive list of known edible fruits that fits our definition. Then, plant viruses infecting those trees and herbs that produce fruits with commercial importance in the global market were identified. The identified plant viruses belong to 30 families, most of them containing single-stranded RNA genomes. Importantly, we show the overall picture of the host range for some virus families following an evolutionary approach. Further, the current knowledge about plant-virus interactions, focusing on the main disorders they cause, as well as yield losses, is summarized. Additionally, since accurate diagnosis methods are of pivotal importance for viral diseases control, the current and emerging technologies for the detection of these plant pathogens are described. Finally, the most promising strategies employed to control viral diseases in the field are presented, focusing on solutions that are long-lasting.

Abstract
To characterize the prevalence of viruses associated with grapevine leafroll disease in China, 249 grapevine (Vitis spp.) samples (86 popular cultivars and a rootstock) from 19 provinces and regions were collected and tested for Grapevine leafroll-associated virus 1 (GLRaV-1), GLRaV-2, GLRaV-3, GLRaV-4, and GLRaV-4 strain 5 by SYBR Green real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), and RT-PCR and sequencing. GLRaV-3 was found in 100% of the samples while GLRaV-1, GLRaV-2, and GLRaV-4 were detected in 24.9% (62/249), 15.3% (38/249), and 0.80% (2/249) of the samples, respectively. Single infections with GLRaV-3 were found in 66.3% (165/249) of the samples, and the remaining samples were mixed infections of GLRaV-3 with one or two other GLRaVs, those with GLRaV-1 being the most common (18.5%, 46/249). The genetic variability of Chinese GLRaV-3 isolates was characterized based on the coat protein (CP) gene. In total, 153 full-length CP gene sequences (94 sequences newly generated) of Chinese GLRaV-3 isolates from different grapevine-growing regions showed 89.3 to 100.0% and 92.7 to 100.0% identity at the nucleotide and amino acid levels, respectively. The average nucleotide diversity for the population of Chinese GLRaV-3 isolates was estimated at 0.037 (standard error = 0.0032). GLRaV-3 isolates from China segregated into five distinct phylogenetic groups and two novel recombination events were found in the viral population. This is the first and most extensive report of the prevalent species of GLRaV in China, which also provides an assessment of genetic variability of GLRaV-3 Chinese isolates.

INDIAN JOURNAL OF VIROLOGY : AN OFFICIAL ORGAN OF INDIAN VIROLOGICAL SOCIETY 2013; 24:66-9.

Abstract
During a survey conducted in the grapevine orchards of Himachal Pradesh, variety of symptoms ranging from leaf yellowing, vein greening, reduced leaf size, downward rolling/cup shaped leaves to reduced fruit bearing were observed. Symptomatic leaf samples were collected and analyzed by serological (DAS-ELISA) and molecular methods (RT-PCR, PCR) for viruses and phytoplasma known worldwide on grapevine. DAS-ELISA was used for detection of Grapevine leafroll associated virus 1, 2 and 3 (GLRaV-1, 2 & 3), Grapevine virus A (GVA), Grapevine fan leaf virus (GFLV), Grapevine fleck virus (GFkV) and successfully detected GLRaV-1 & 3 and GFkV. All these samples were complemented with RT- PCR along with GVb and phytoplasma (additional to ELISA) using specific primers. Specific amplification in RT-PCR for GLRaV-1 (~232 bp), GLRaV-3 (~300 bp), GFkV (~179 bp) and GVB (~440 bp) confirmed the presence of these pathogens. Overall, ELISA and RT-PCR results confirmed the presence GLRaV-3 (66.7 %), GLRaV-1& GFkV (50 %), and Grapevine virus B (GVB) (12.5 %) in symptomatic plants. None of the samples were found positive for GFLV, GLRaV-2 and phytoplasma. Mixed infection was common and none of the plants were found virus free. To the best of our knowledge this is the first report of detection of GFkV and GVB in India.

Abstract
Grapevine leafroll disease (GLD) is one of the most important grapevine viral diseases affecting grapevines worldwide. The impact on vine health, crop yield, and quality is difficult to assess due to a high number of variables, but significant economic losses are consistently reported over the lifespan of a vineyard if intervention strategies are not implemented. Several viruses from the family Closteroviridae are associated with GLD. However, Grapevine leafroll-associated virus 3 (GLRaV-3), the type species for the genus Ampelovirus, is regarded as the most important causative agent. Here we provide a general overview on various aspects of GLRaV-3, with an emphasis on the latest advances in the characterization of the genome. The full genome of several isolates have recently been sequenced and annotated, revealing the existence of several genetic variants. The classification of these variants, based on their genome sequence, will be discussed and a guideline is presented to facilitate future comparative studies. The characterization of sgRNAs produced during the infection cycle of GLRaV-3 has given some insight into the replication strategy and the putative functionality of the ORFs. The latest nucleotide sequence based molecular diagnostic techniques were shown to be more sensitive than conventional serological assays and although ELISA is not as sensitive it remains valuable for high-throughput screening and complementary to molecular diagnostics. The application of next-generation sequencing is proving to be a valuable tool to study the complexity of viral infection as well as plant pathogen interaction. Next-generation sequencing data can provide information regarding disease complexes, variants of viral species, and abundance of particular viruses. This information can be used to develop more accurate diagnostic assays. Reliable virus screening in support of robust grapevine certification programs remains the cornerstone of GLD management.
