In China, Tomato chlorosis virus (ToCV) and Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) are widely present in tomato plants. The epidemiology of these viruses is intimately associated with their vector, the whitefly (Bemisia tabaci MED). However, how a ToCV+TYLCV mixed infection affects viral acquisition by their vector remains unknown. In this study, we examined the growth parameters of tomato seedlings, including disease symptoms and the heights and weights of non-infected, singly infected and mixed infected tomato plants. Additionally, the spatio-temporal dynamics of the viruses in tomato plants, and the viral acquisition and transmission by B. tabaci MED, were determined. The results demonstrated that: (i) ToCV+TYLCV mixed infections induced tomato disease synergism, resulting in a high disease severity index and decreased stem heights and weights; (ii) as the disease progressed, TYLCV accumulated more in upper leaves of TYLCV-infected tomato plants than in lower leaves, whereas ToCV accumulated less in upper leaves of ToCV-infected tomato plants than in lower leaves; (iii) viral accumulation in ToCV+TYLCV mixed infected plants was greater than in singly infected plants; and (iv) B. tabaci MED appeared to have a greater TYLCV, but a lower ToCV, acquisition rate from mixed infected plants compared with singly infected plants. However, mixed infections did not affect transmission by whiteflies. Thus, ToCV+TYLCV mixed infections may induce synergistic disease effects in tomato plants.

Whitefly-transmitted viruses have caused severe losses in tomato crops (Solanum lycopersicum) in Cuba. In 2006 and 2007, tomato greenhouses across eastern Cuba exhibited high levels of Bemisia tabaci (B biotype) infestation. Some plants showed interveinal chlorosis and a severe yellow mosaic, combined with leaf brittleness. These symptoms were different from those induced by Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV-IL(CU)). Only 12 of 31 symptomatic samples resulted in positive PCR assays with TYLCV-specific primers (CTGAATGTTTGGATGGAAATGTGC and GCTCGTAAGTTTCCTCAACGGAC). A reverse transcription (RT)-PCR analysis for Tomato chlorosis virus (ToCV) with generic (HS-11/HS-12) and specific primers (ToC-5/ToC-6) was also carried out (2). Sequence analysis of the cloned RT-PCR products (463 bp) confirmed the presence of ToCV in Cuba. The fragment had 97 to 98% identity with GenBank isolates from Spain (DQ136146), Florida (AY903448), and Reunion Island, France (AJ968396). Cloned TYLCV and ToCV amplicons were used as probes to reanalyze the selected 31 samples by a dot-blot hybridization assay in search of mixed infections (1). The assay showed 16 samples to be positive for ToCV, 4 for TYLCV, 8 for both, and 3 samples were negative. To our knowledge, this is the first report of ToCV and TYLCV/ToCV mixed infections in Cuba.

Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV), a begomovirus in the family Geminiviridae, causes yield losses in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) around the world. During 2005, tomato plants exhibiting TYLCV symptoms were found in several locations in the Charleston, SC area. These locations included a whitefly research greenhouse at the United States Vegetable Laboratory, two commercial tomato fields, and various garden centers. Symptoms included stunting, mottling, and yellowing of leaves. Utilizing the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and begomovirus degenerate primer set prV324 and prC889 (1), the expected 579-bp amplification product was generated from DNA isolated from symptomatic tomato leaves. Another primer set (KL04-06_TYLCV CP F: 5′GCCGCCG AATTCAAGCTTACTATGTCGAAG; KL04-07_TYLCV CP R: 5′GCCG CCCTTAAGTTCGAAACTCATGATATA), homologous to the Florida isolate of TYLCV (GenBank Accession No. AY530931) was designed to amplify a sequence that contains the entire coat protein gene. These primers amplified the expected 842-bp PCR product from DNA isolated from symptomatic tomato tissues as well as viruliferous whitefly (Bemisia tabaci) adults. Expected PCR products were obtained from eight different samples, including three tomato samples from the greenhouse, two tomato plants from commercial fields, two plants from retail stores, and a sample of 50 whiteflies fed on symptomatic plants. For each primer combination, three PCR products amplified from DNA from symptomatic tomato plants after insect transmission were sequenced and analyzed. All sequences were identical and generated 806 nucleotides after primer sequence trimming (GenBank Accession No. DQ139329). This sequence had 99% nucleotide identity with TYLCV isolates from Florida, the Dominican Republic, Cuba, Guadeloupe, and Puerto Rico. In greenhouse tests with a total of 129 plants in two separate experiments, 100% of the tomato plants became symptomatic as early as 10 days after exposure to whiteflies previously fed on symptomatic plants. A low incidence (<1%) of symptomatic plants was observed in the two commercial tomato fields. In addition, two symptomatic tomato plants obtained from two different retail garden centers tested positive for TYLCV using PCR and both primer sets. Infected plants in both retail garden centers were produced by an out-of-state nursery; this form of “across-state” distribution may be one means of entry of TYLCV into South Carolina. To our knowledge, this is the first report of TYLCV in South Carolina. Reference: (1) S. D. Wyatt and J. K. Brown. Phytopathology 86:1288, 1996.

Begomoviruses are whitefly-transmitted viruses that infect many agricultural crops. Numerous reports exist on individual host plants harboring two or more begomoviruses. Mixed infection allows recombination events to occur among begomoviruses. However, very few studies have examined mixed infection of different isolates/variants/strains of a Begomovirus species in hosts. In this study, the frequency of mixed infection of tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) variants in field-grown tomato was evaluated. At least 60% of symptomatic field samples were infected with more than one TYLCV variant. These variants differed by a few nucleotides and amino acids resembling a quasispecies. Subsequently, in the greenhouse, single and mixed infection of two TYLCV variants (“variant #2” and “variant #4”) that shared 99.5% nucleotide identity and differed by a few amino acids was examined. Plant-virus variant-whitefly interactions including transmission of one and/or two variants, variants’ concentrations, competition between variants in inoculated tomato plants, and whitefly acquisition of one and/or two variants were assessed. Whiteflies transmitted both variants to tomato plants at similar frequencies; however, the accumulation of variant #4 was greater than variant#2 in tomato plants. Despite differences in variants’ accumulation in inoculated tomato plants, whiteflies acquired variant #2 and variant #4 at similar frequencies. Also, whiteflies acquired greater amounts of TYLCV from singly-infected plants than from mixed-infected plants. These results demonstrated that even highly similar TYLCV variants could differentially influence component (whitefly-variant-plant) interactions.

Whiteflies (Bemisia tabaci, biotype B) were able to transmit Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) 8 h after they were caged with infected tomato plants. The spread of TYLCV during this latent period was followed in organs thought to be involved in the translocation of the virus in B. tabaci. After increasing acquisition access periods (AAPs) on infected tomato plants, the stylets, the head, the midgut, a hemolymph sample, and the salivary glands dissected from individual insects were subjected to polymerase chain reaction (PCR) without any treatment; the presence of TYLCV was assessed with virus-specific primers. TYLCV DNA was first detected in the head of B. tabaci after a 10-min AAP. The virus was present in the midgut after 40 min and was first detected in the hemolymph after 90 min. TYLCV was found in the salivary glands 5.5 h after it was first detected in the hemolymph. Subjecting the insect organs to immunocapture-PCR showed that the virus capsid protein was in the insect organs at the same time as the virus genome, suggesting that at least some TYLCV translocates as virions. Although females are more efficient as vectors than males, TYLCV was detected in the salivary glands of males and of females after approximately the same AAP.

Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) causes a serious disease of tomato in many countries throughout the world. Preliminary reports suggested that TYLC disease was present in 1997 in South Africa. In 1998 140 ha of tomato fields in the Onderberg area were assessed for possible presence of TYLCV. Symptoms like those caused by TYLCV isolates in Israel were observed in most fields, and disease incidence ranged from <1 to 50%. Yield losses in individual plants ranged from negligible to 100% and appeared related to the age of the plants at time of infection. Two isolates of the suspect virus were experimentally transmitted from symptomatic tomato to virus-free, glasshouse-grown tomato seedlings by colony. Field and colony whiteflies were identified as the Bemisia tabaci based on mt COI sequence analysis (1). Attempts to transmit the suspect begomovirus by sap inoculation between tomato plants were unsuccessful. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification with degenerate PCR primers (2) that permit detection of the coat protein gene (AV1) and the common region (CR) of other begomoviruses yielded an amplicon of the expected size (2,100 bp), suggesting begomovirus association with diseased tomato plants. Nucleotide (nt) sequence analysis of AV1 for both tomato isolate AF261885 indicated that they were indistinguishable and shared less than 78% sequence identity with other well-studied begomoviruses, indicating a distinct, previously undescribed begomovirus species. AV1 sequence comparisons also revealed that its closest relatives were members of the TYLCV cluster, which includes South African cassava mosaic virus (77.4%) (AF11785), East African cassava mosaic virus (77.3%) (AJ006459), and TYLCV-IS (76.2%) (X15656). The theoretical Rep binding element in the CR, TCGGT, was identical to TYLCV-IS and Cotton leaf curl virus-Pakistan (AJ002448) (AJ002449). Here, we provisionally designate this new tomato-infecting begomoviral species, Tomato curly stunt virus from South Africa (ToCSV-SA). References: (1) D. R. Frohlich et al. Mol. Ecol. 8:1683, 1999.
