Abstract Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) is one of the most economically destructive and scientifically challenging plant viruses, which has seriously affected the production of commercial crops. At present, there is no effective strategy to control this virus. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a rapid and simple method to detect TSWV, which is of great significance to prevent its spread. In this study, an isolate of TSWV (TSWV-LNTL) infecting pepper from Liaoning Province of northeast China was obtained. A phylogenetic tree based on neighbor-joining using coat protein (CP) gene was established. A rapid method for detecting TSWV by recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) was established. The phylogenetic tree based on the nucleotide sequences of coat protein (CP) genes of different TSWV isolates showed that the genetic relationship of TSWV-LNTL was most closely related to that of TSWV-LX-Lettuce-12 (Yunnan) and TSWV-TSHL (Shandong) isolates in China. It can be finished at 39 °C for 20 min and then purified by heating at 65 °C for 10 min. The RPA primers were highly specific and no cross-reactivity was detected with other selected viruses infecting pepper. The results of sensitivity test revealed that the detection limit of RPA is 1.0 × 103 copies/μL, which was tenfold lower than that of PCR method. In addition, the RPA method was successfully applied to detect TSWV in field samples. These results reported the occurrence of TSWV on crop in Liaoning Province of northeast China and demonstrated that the established RPA assay provided an effective molecular diagnostic tool for the accurate and rapid detection of TSWV to prevent its spread.

Tospoviridaeis a family of enveloped RNA plant viruses that infect many field crops, inflicting a heavy global economic burden. These tripartite, single-stranded, negative-sense RNA viruses are transmitted from plant to plant by thrips as the insect vector. The medium (M) segment of the viral genome encodes two envelope glycoproteins, GNand GC, which together form the envelope spikes. GCis considered the virus fusogen, while the accompanying GNprotein serves as an attachment protein that binds to a yet unknown receptor, mediating the virus acquisition by the thrips carrier. Here we present the crystal structure of glycoprotein N (GN) from the tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV), a representative member of theTospoviridaefamily. The structure suggests that GNis organized as dimers on TSWV’s outer shell. Our structural data also suggest that this dimerization is required for maintaining GNstructural integrity. Although the structure of the TSWV GNis different from other bunyavirus GNproteins, they all share similar domain connectivity that resembles glycoproteins from unrelated animal-infecting viruses, suggesting a common ancestor for these accompanying proteins.

Wilt Virus

Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) is the most economically important plant viruses from genus Tospovirus. It has a polyphagous character and infects a wide range of very significant agricultural crops. Vectors of viruses are insects from order Thysanoptera (Thripidae) and till know eight species are known to transmit tospoviruses of which Frankliniella occidentalis is considered to be economically most important vector. TSWV is transmitted by thrips in a persistent and propagative manner. Relationship between vector and TSWV is very specific because vectors acquire the virus in the larval stages, while imago plays a key role in transmission of the virus. TSWV causes wide range of symptoms depending on host plant, external environmental conditions and type of viruses. In addition to affecting the fruit quality of cultivated crops, greatly reduces the yield to agricultural producers. Tomato is the most commonly attacked by TSWV, and after the symptoms manifested on leaves in the form of a bronze color, the virus was name. Protection of agricultural crops is very challenging and difficult due to wide distribution of viruse vectors, their hidden way of life as well as wide range of TSWV hosts.

An obviously unhealthy plant identified as Tragopogon mirus Ownbey (remarkable goatsbeard) was sent for diagnosis to the Division of Plant Industry (DPI), Gainesville, FL in May of 2008. T. mirus is a recently formed allotetraploid that has T. dubius Scop. and T. porrifolius L. (goatsbeard or salsify) as parents. The parents (family Asteraceae) are diploid and originate from Eurasia. They were introduced to the northwest United States in the early 1900s. The allotetraploid T. mirus, which does not occur in Eurasia, was discovered in 1949 and named in 1950. It has been found in the northwest states of Washington and Idaho. It has also been found in Arizona (4). The plant sent to the DPI was grown in a greenhouse for research purposes at the Botany Department of the University of Florida (Alachua County). Symptoms exhibited on the leaves included mottling, chlorotic and necrotic spots, and mild distortion. Epidermal leaf strips from a mottled leaf were stained with the Orange-Green protein stain and Azure A nucleic acid stain (1). With a light microscope, granular inclusions typical for Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) (1) were seen in leaf strips from both stains. The remainder of the leaf was ground in buffer and tested serologically for TSWV by TSWV-specific ImmunoStrips (Agdia, Elkhart, IN). The ImmunoStrip was positive for the presence of TSWV. This test was confirmed by double-antibody sandwich-ELISA using antiserum and conjugate for TSWV (Agdia). Further serological testing of other Tragopogon species with similar symptoms growing in the same greenhouse revealed that T. miscellus (another recently formed allotetraploid found in the northwestern United States; parents T. dubius and T. pratensis), T. dubius, T. porrifolius, and T. pratensis were also infected with TSWV. Total RNA was extracted from symptomatic leaves of T. mirus, T. dubius, T. porrifolius, and T. miscellus. Reverse transcription-PCR was performed with universal tospovirus primers BR60 and BR65 that amplify part of the nucleocapsid protein gene (2). Target amplicons of 454 bp were produced for all four samples. The PCR product from T. porrifolius was cloned and sequenced. The resulting sequence (GenBank Accession No. FJ655913) shows high homology, 98%, to several isolates of the Tomato spotted wilt virus deposited in the GenBank (Accession Nos. AY870391, AY744477, and AF020659). T. porrifolius has been reported to be naturally infected with TSWV in Italy (3); however, to our knowledge, this is the first report of this virus in the allotetraploids T. mirus and T. miscellus and in the diploids T. dubius and T. pratensis. This report adds five new Asteraceae weeds to the list of possible reservoirs of TSWV in the United States. References: (1) J. R. Edwardson and R. G. Christie. Univ. Fla. Inst. Food Agric. Sci.

Severe leaf and stem necrosis before flowering was observed in potato (Solanum tuberosum) fields of Firouzkoh Province, Iran, during the summer of 1998. Infected plants died before the end of the growing season. Necrosis was more severe in cv. Agria than in cvs. Ajaxs and Arinda. A high population of Thrips tabaci was observed in August and September. Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) (1) was detected in affected potatoes by using specific TSWV-IgG (from Bioreba) in double-antibody sandwich enzyme linked immunosorbent assay and by indicator plant reactions. Mechanical inoculation of indicator plants with leaf extracts of symptomatic potatoes produce necrotic local lesions in Chenopodium quinoa, C. amaranticolor, Gomphrena globosa, Vicia faba, Vigna sinensis, Phaseolus aureus var. Gohar, P. vulgaris, and Petunia hybrida. The virus caused systemic necrosis in Capsicum frutescens, Datura stramonium, D. metel, Nicotiana glutinosa, N. rustica, and Trapaeolum majus, preceded by systemic chlorotic spots. TSWV was reported from ornamental crops in Tehran and Absard areas near to Firouzkoh province (2), but this is the first report of TSWV occurrence on potatoes in Iran. References: (1) T. S. Ie.
