Unraveling different begomoviruses, DNA satellites and cryptic species of Bemisia tabaci and their endosymbionts in vegetable ecosystem. Microb Pathog 2023; 174:105892. [PMID: 36502993 DOI: 10.1016/j.micpath.2022.105892] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2022] [Revised: 10/16/2022] [Accepted: 11/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
Bemisia tabaci species complex contains more than 46 cryptic species. It has emerged as an important pest causing significant yield loss in many cultivated crops. This pest is also a vector for more than 100 species of begomoviruses, that are a major threat for the cultivation of many crops in different regions of the world. The relation between cryptic species of the B. tabaci species complex and associated begomoviruses that infect different crops remains unclear. In the present study, four cryptic species (Asia I, China 3, Asia II 5 and Asia II-1) of B. tabaci and four associated endosymbionts (Arsenophonus, Cardinium, Rickettsia and Wolbachia) were identified in different vegetable crops. The vector-based PCR detection revealed five different begomoviruses such as okra enation leaf curl virus (OELCuV), tomato leaf curl Palampur virus (ToLCPalV), squash leaf curl China virus (SLCCNV), chilli leaf curl virus (ChiLCuV), and tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus (ToLCNDV). Of these begomoviruses, the maximum infection rate was observed (9.1%) for OELCuV, followed by 7.3% for ToLCNDV. The infection rate of the other three viruses (SLCCNV, ChiLCuV, ToLCPalV) ranged from 0.9 to 2.7% in cryptic species of B. tabaci. Further, each cryptic species was infected with multiple virus species and the virus infection rate of Asia I, Asia II-5, China 3 and Asia II-1 was 21.2%, 15.1%, 15.1% and 0.6% respectively. Similarly, in case of betasatellites the highest infection rate was 12% for ToLCBDB, followed by 6% for OLCuB and PaLCB. With regard to alphasatellites, the highest infection rate was 18.2% for AEV and 3% for CLCuMuA. This study demonstrates the distribution of cryptic species of whitefly and their endosymbionts, and associated begomoviruses and DNA satellites in vegetable ecosystem. We believe that the information generated here is useful for evolving an effective pest management strategies for vegetable production.

Incidence and Molecular Identification of Begomoviruses Infecting Tomato and Pepper in Myanmar. PLANTS 2022; 11:plants11081031. [PMID: 35448759 PMCID: PMC9030778 DOI: 10.3390/plants11081031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2022] [Revised: 04/06/2022] [Accepted: 04/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
In Myanmar, yellow mosaic and leaf curl diseases caused by whitefly-transmitted begomoviruses are serious problems for vegetables such as tomatoes and peppers. To investigate the incidence of begomoviruses in Myanmar between 2017 and 2019, a field survey of tomato and pepper plants with virus-like symptoms was conducted in the Naypyitaw, Tatkon, and Mohnyin areas of Myanmar. Among the 59 samples subjected to begomovirus detection using polymerase chain reaction, 59.3% were infected with begomoviruses. Complete genome sequences using rolling circle amplification identified five begomovirus species: tomato yellow leaf curl Thailand virus (TYLCTHV), tomato yellow leaf curl Kanchanaburi virus (TYLCKaV), tobacco leaf curl Yunnan virus (TbLCYnV), chili leaf curl Pakistan virus (ChiLCV/PK), and tobacco curly shoot Myanmar virus (TbCSV-[Myanmar]). Excluding the previously reported TYLCTHV, three begomoviruses (ChiLCV/PK, TYLCKaV, and TbLCYnV) were identified in Myanmar for the first time. Based on the 91% demarcation threshold of begomovirus species, TbCSV-[Myanmar] was identified as a new species in this study. Among these, ChiLCV/PK and TbCSV-[Myanmar] were the most predominant in tomato and pepper fields in Myanmar. Identification of begomovirus species may be helpful for predicting the origin of viruses and preventing their spread.
