Electrophoresis patterns of cyanogen bromide (CNBr) peptides from the proteins of the cowpea (SBc), bean (SBb), Mexican (SBm), and Ghana (SBg) strains of southern bean mosaic virus showed a marked similarity between SBc and SBg and between SBb and SBm. A highly basic CNBr peptide from SBc, cCB-1, was isolated by Sephadex and ion-exchange chromatography. The size and amino acid composition of cCB-1 was similar but differed from that of the N-terminal CNBr peptide bCB-1 from SBb described previously.Antisera to cCB-1 or bCB-1 conjugated to tomato bushy stunt virus (TBSV) were used in gel diffusion tests with virus particles of the four SB strains. With the bCB-1–TBSV conjugate antiserum, SBb gave a reaction of identity with SBm and reactions of partial identity with SBc and SBg. With the cCB-1–TBSV conjugate antiserum, SBc gave a reaction of identity with SBg and reactions of partial identity with SBb and SBm. Cross absorption of bCB-1–TBSV conjugate antiserum with TBSV yielded an antiserum that reacted with SBb but not with TBSV. Cross absorption with bCB-1 yielded an antiserum that reacted with TBSV but not with SBb.Limited tryptic proteolysis of SBc in 0.01 M sodium phosphate buffer containing 0.01 M ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, pH 8.0, resulted in the formation of viruslike particles and smaller spherical particles. Sixteen peptides were isolated from these digests and the compositions of most of them were similar to but not identical to peptides isolated from limited tryptic proteolysis of SBb.

Protein Components

Southern bean mosaic virus (SBMV) and sowbane mosaic virus (SoMV) were each dissociated into RNA and protein components in neutral pH buffers containing ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid and 1 M NaCl. The assembly of SBMV particles and of SoMV RNA in SBMV protein was accomplished by dialysis of the virus components into low molarity buffers containing divalent metal ions. Some of these particles were stable in 1% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and had sedimentation and electrophoretic properties identical with untreated virus. Spherical particles were also assembled with either SBMV or SoMV RNA in SoMV protein and with sodium dextran sulfate in either SBMV or SoMV protein, but these particles were not stable in 1% SDS.

Gel Diffusion

Southern bean mosaic virus (SBMV) protein was cleaved with cyanogen bromide and a highly basic peptide, CB-1, was isolated by ion exclusion and ion-exchange chromatography. Twelve peptides were separated from a tryptic digest of CB-1 by ion-exchange chromatography and the composition of these peptides was similar to that of peptides released from EDTA-swollen virus particles by limited tryptic digestion. The composition and N-termini of the tryptic peptides indicated CB-1 was from the N-terminus of SBMV protein and contained 48 amino acid residues. The CB-1 peptide moved rapidly to the cathode in polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis at pH 3.9 and contained nine arginine residues, three lysine residues, and no acidic amino acid residues. It was shown to interact with purified viral RNA, sodium dextran sulfate, and calf thymus DNA.Antiserum to sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-dissociated virus gave a reaction of partial identity between the CB-1 peptide and the SDS-dissociated virus in SDS gel diffusion tests. The CB-1 peptide did not react with antiserum to SDS-dissociated, trypsin-treated virus. Gel diffusion tests conducted in saline agar gels between trypsin-treated virus and SBMV, with SBMV antiserum, did not show differences in their serological properties. Antiserum to the CB-1 peptide conjugated to tomato bushy stunt virus reacted with SBMV but SBMV antiserum did not react with CB-1 or the CB-1-tomato bushy stunt virus conjugate.

Agropyron mosaic virus (AMV) from Ontario and wheat streak mosaic virus (WSMV) from Alberta readily infected wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) causing mosaic symptoms that could be differentiated only when carefully compared. All isolates of AMV infected Agropyron repens (L.) Beauv. but not oats (Avena sativa L.). WSMV infected oats but not A. repens. Hordeum mosaic virus (HMV) from Alberta caused mottle rather than streak symptoms on wheat, rye, and other common hosts of WSMV, and did not infect A. repens, but, like AMV, it was not transmitted by Aceria tulipae (K.), the vector of WSMV. It infected Hordeum jubatum L., which is not susceptible to AMV or WSMV. It ranked between AMV and WSMV in longevity and tolerance to heat and pH. The particles were flexuous rods similar to those of WSMV, which appear less flexuous and slightly shorter than particles of AMV.The temperatures at which the viruses multiplied and caused symptoms on wheat ranged from 15° to 33 °C for WSMV and 10° to 30° for AMV. HMV multiplied at all temperatures from 10° to 33 °C but caused symptoms only at 10° to 30 °C.Specific antisera were prepared by partially purifying the viruses by differential centrifugation of juice from diseased wheat, emulsifying the juice with adjuvant, then injecting rabbits intramuscularly. The precipitation titers against their homologous viruses were 1/640, 1/1280, and 1/1280 for the WSMV, AMV, and HMV antisera respectively. The WSMV antiserum did not react with the heterologous viruses, but two HMV antisera had a precipitation titer of 1/16 against AMV, and an AMV antiserum had a titer of 1/10 againt WSMV. Cross absorption of each of the antisera with the heterologous viruses did not reduce the titers against the homologous viruses.The infection of wheat with a mild strain of any of the three viruses protected against later infection by a severe strain of the same virus. Both AMV and HMV were synergistic in combination with WSMV. Serological tests demonstrated that both AMV and HMV multiplied in wheat simultaneously inoculated with both viruses, but systemic infection with either virus protected the plants against later infection by the other.Despite general similarities in physical characteristics and effects on wheat, specific differences in other characteristics show that AMV, HMV, and WSMV are sufficiently different to be designated as different viruses rather than closely related strains of one virus.

Agropyron Trachycaulum

Poa semilatent virus (PSLV), which caused chlorosis and rapid death of inoculated wheat, infected a number of grasses susceptible to barley stripe mosaic virus (BSMV); but it also infected Agropyron trachycaulum and Poa palustris which were not susceptible to a barley strain or two oat-infecting strains of BSMV. Conversely BSMV caused local lesions on several species of Chenopodium that did not become infected with PSLV. BSMV protected wheat from infection by PSLV, but PSLV caused only partial protection from BSMV.The normal length and thickness of particles in leaf-dip preparations was 161 × 26 mμ for PSLV and 133 × 25 mμ for BSMV.Serological relationship was not indicated by the Ouchterlony agar double-diffusion test or leaf-dip serology. A distant relationship was shown with the microprecipitin test and the ring interface precipitin test. In cross absorption tests the titers of the antisera to the homologous viruses were not reduced by absorption with the heterologous viruses.PSLV and BSMV appear to be distantly related serotypes.

In the fall of 1998, the Division of Plant Industry (DPI) received vegetative propagations of Scutellaria longifolia (skullcap) with symptoms of foliar mosaic, chlorotic/necrotic ringspots, and wavy line patterns from a nursery in Manatee County. Flexuous particles approximately 500 nm long were found with electron microscopy. The plants tested positive for Papaya mosaic virus (PaMV) in an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) test with antiserum to PaMV (Agdia, Elkhart, IN). However, in immunodiffusion tests (antiserum from D. Purcifull, University of Florida), this virus gave a reaction of partial identity indicating it was related but not identical to PaMV (1). The original infected plants were kept in a greenhouse. In January 2005, a specimen of Crossandra infundibuliformis (firecracker plant) with mosaic symptoms was submitted to the DPI from a nursery in Alachua County. Inclusions found with light microscopy and particles found with electron microscopy indicated that this plant was infected with a potexvirus. This was confirmed by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) with primers designed to detect members of the virus family Potexviridae (3). These plants reacted positive to PaMV antiserum in ELISA and gave a reaction of partial identity to PaMV in immunodiffusion. A specimen of Portulaca grandiflora (moss rose) with distorted leaves found at a local retail store was also tested and gave the same results. Leaves from each of the three plant species were rubbed onto a set of indicator plants using Carborundum and potassium phosphate buffer. Total RNA was extracted from symptomatic indicator plants of Nicotiana benthamiana. RT-PCR (3) was performed, and PCR products were sequenced directly. Sequences of approximately 700 bp were obtained for all three plant species and showed 98% identity with each other. BLAST search results showed that these sequences were 93% identical to an Alternanthera mosaic virus (AltMV) sequence at the nucleotide level but only 76% identical to PaMV. The amino acid sequences were 98 and 82% identical to AltMV and PaMV, respectively. The PCR products of the virus from Scutellaria sp. were cloned, resequenced, and the sequence was entered into the GenBank (Accession No. DQ393785). The bioassay results matched those found for AltMV in Australia (2) and the northeastern United States (4), except that the Florida viruses infected Datura stramonium and Digitalis purpurea (foxglove). The virus associated with the symptoms of these three plants appears to be AltMV and not PaMV. AltMV has been found in ornamental plants in Australia, Italy, and the United States (Pennsylvania, Maryland, and now Florida). Since this virus is known to infect several plants asymptomatically and can be easily confused with PaMV serologically, it is likely that the distribution of this virus is much wider than is known at this time.
