Papaya ringspot virus W infecting Luffa aegyptiaca in Cuba
Abstract
Luffa aegyptiaca (sponge gourd) plants showing severe leaf mosaic and deformation symptoms were observed in Villa Clara, Cuba. Electron microscopy observations of leaf dip preparations revealed flexuous filamentous particles, which were identified as Papaya ringspot virus (PRSV) by ELISA test. PRSV was mechanically transmitted to healthy Cucurbita moschata plants. Sequence analysis of the RT-PCR product obtained from the capsid protein gene showed highest

Luffa aegyptiaca (sponge gourd) plants showing severe leaf mosaic and deformation symptoms were observed in Villa Clara, Cuba. Electron microscopy observations of leaf dip preparations revealed flexuous filamentous particles, which were identified as Papaya ringspot virus (PRSV) by ELISA test. PRSV was mechanically transmitted to healthy Cucurbita moschata plants. Sequence analysis of the RT-PCR product obtained from the capsid protein gene showed highest identity with other PRSV isolates from United States of America, Australia, Venezuela, Brazil, India and Cuba, ranging between 93.2–96.5% and 93.4–98.1% for nucleotide and amino acid sequences, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis showed two main clusters. Cluster I included isolates from the Americas-Australia group and India, including sponge gourd isolate, while the cluster II included isolates from China, Thailand and Taiwan. To our knowledge, this is the first report of PRSV-W infecting sponge gourd in Cuba.

Relative incidence of cucurbit viruses and relationship with bio-meteorological variables
Pozzi, Elizabeth Alicia; Bruno, Cecilia Inés; Luciani, Cecilia; Celli, Marcos Giovani; Conci, Vilma Cecilia; Perotto, Maria Cecilia (Springer, 2020-02)Environmental heterogeneity can shape the plant-virus relationship, furthering the appearance of new diseases in crops, or altering disease incidence and severity. In this work, we studied the virus association with ... -

Striking differences in the biological and molecular properties of onion and garlic isolates of onion yellow dwarf virus
Celli, Marcos Giovani; Torrico Ramallo, Ada Karina; Kiehr, Mirta; Conci, Vilma Cecilia (Springer, 2013-06)Complete nucleotide (nt) and deduced amino acid sequences of two onion yellow dwarf virus (OYDV) isolates showing mild and severe symptoms in onion but being unable to infect garlic were determined. The genomes consisted ...
