Test tube plantlets were used to assess the transmission efficiency of Potato virus Y (PVY) from and to potato plants by the potato colonizing species green peach aphid (Myzus persicae) and the non-potato colonizing species soybean aphid (Aphis glycines). Similar levels of transmission of PVY by M. persicae were observed in the test tube plantlets and potted plants, demonstrating the reliability of this test for PVY transmission efficiency assay for aphids. The assay was then used to assess the transmission of PVYO and PVYN:O by M. persicae and A. glycines with two virus acquisition regimes, one with 5-min continuous probing and the other with 1-h acquisition access. The M. persicae mediated-transmission rate was 24.1% and 51.7% for PVYO and PVYN:O, respectively, under the 5-min acquisition regime; under the same acquisition regime, A. glycines led to 0.0% and 1.7% infection rates for PVYO and PVYN:O, respectively. Under the 1-h acquisition regime, no infection was observed except for PVYN:O by M. persicae, which exhibited an infection rate of 3.4%.

Wingless adults of Myzus persicae (Sulz.) usually ceased to be infective within minutes and always within hours after leaving tobacco infected with potato virus Y, the time being longer when the aphids were kept from feeding than when they fed, and aphids that were kept from feeding remained infective longer at 2 °C. than at 35 °C. After one to four hours without food, over 80% of M. persicae made initial feeding punctures that lasted less than a minute, and about 70% of these aphids transmitted potato virus Y after one such feeding puncture on an infected plant. Though virus was acquired by aphids during feeding punctures as brief as five seconds, those that made feeding punctures lasting 11–60 sec. were the most likely to become infective. The percentage of aphids that transmitted potato virus Y decreased when the stylets were inserted into infected plants for over a minute, and none of the aphids transmitted the virus after the stylets had been inserted over 20 min. The highest percentage of aphids transmitted potato virus Y when they were transferred to test plants immediately after a single brief feeding puncture on an infected plant. The percentage of aphids that transmitted the virus decreased when they spent 10 min. or longer on infected plants; also, the probability of their becoming infective during a single feeding puncture decreased by about one third during the first 10 min. they fed after one to four hours without food. Even when conditions were suitable, about 25% of M. persicae failed to transmit potato virus Y. Yet those that failed to transmit the virus in one infection trial transmitted it as readily in a second trial as those that transmitted it in the first.

Paraffin Oil

In laboratory tests with a light white paraffin oil, transmission of potato virus Y by viruliferous adults of Myzus persicae (Sulz.) was impeded by (a) allowing aphids to probe on a leaf coated with oil, (b) manually touching the end of the labium to an oil-coated leaf, or (c) inserting the bare stylets directly into the oil. The first two of these but not the third also impeded for some minutes the uptake and transmission of virus Y by nonviruliferous aphids. Oil sprayed on plants kept in the laboratory continued to cause these effects for some weeks. If infected plants, used as virus sources for aphids, were coated with oil, transmission from them was impeded. It is still not clear why oil impedes transmission. But the results give good reasons to believe that oil can be used in the field to prevent spread of certain aphid-borne viruses.

Tuber Necrosis

The complexity of the Potato virus Y (PVY) (Potyviridae: Potyvirus) pathosystem is affected by the presence of several virus strains that differ in their ability to produce tuber necrosis and by the presence of an alternate host that could increase the amount of inoculum in potato fields. Solanum sarrachoides (Sendtner) is an invasive weed from South America present in Pacific Northwest potato agro-ecosystems. It serves as reservoir of PVY and its most efficient vectors: the green peach aphid, Myzus persicae (Sulzer), and the potato aphid, Macrosiphum euphorbiae (Thomas). The role of S. sarracoides as vector and virus reservoir in PVY epidemiology was investigated through a series of laboratory and greenhouse experiments. We studied the symptoms produced in S. sarracoides upon infection with necrotic and non-necrotic strains of PVY and looked at the percentage of infection and titer accumulation of these strains. PVY infection in S. sarrachoides produced symptoms similar to those produced in PVY-infected potato plants. Mottling and yellowing were the main symptoms of infection observed in S. sarrachoides plants, especially by PVYO and PVYNTN infection. Greenhouse transmission studies revealed that PVY-infected S. sarrachoides increased the transmission rate of PVY necrotic strains by M. persicae. The necrotic strain PVYNTN reached higher titer in S. sarrachoides than in potato plants when compared to PVYO and PVYN:O These findings have broadened our understanding of the role and importance of S. sarrachoides in the PVY epidemiology in the potato ecosystems and could potentially be included in the development or optimization of virus management programs.

Vector Efficiency

Single aphids of four species were observed with a hand-lens until each had touched its proboscis once on a tobacco plant infected with potato virus Y and then once on a healthy tobacco plant. The time that the proboscis remained touching the plants in each case was recorded. This procedure required only a few minutes for each aphid, and sometimes it was completed in less than a minute. During this process, the successful transmissions of potato virus Y by single aphids of Myzus persicae (Sulz.), Aphis abbreviata Patch, Macrosiphum solanifolii (Ashm), and Myzus solani (Kltb.) were 55, 31, 9, and 4% respectively. Vector efficiency was not due to difference in feeding behavior of these species. When single infective aphids were transferred to a series of five plants at five-minute intervals, M. persicae caused more infections and remained infective longer than A. abbreviata.

Potato virus Y (PVY) was made noninfective by incubation with formaldehyde in vitro. Yet this noninfective virus reacted with PVY antiserum and caused antibodies to be produced in rabbits as readily as infective PVY. A method is described for baring the stylets of living aphids beyond the end of the labium, which normally encloses the stylets. Specimens of Myzus persicae (Sulz.) infective with PVY were made noninfective by treating the stylets for 30 sec. with concentrations of formaldehyde as low as 0.03%; and 0.25% formaldehyde caused the same effect in five seconds. Aphids were also made noninfective when the proboscis with the tip of the stylets bared was treated with formaldehyde, even after the stylets had been inserted a considerable distance into infected tobacco plants. By contrast, aphids usually remained infective when the proboscis with the stylets enclosed in the labium was treated with similar concentrations of formaldehyde. However, formaldehyde treatment of the stylets did not affect the ability of aphids immediately thereafter to acquire and transmit PVY. These results are compatible with the hypothesis that viruses transmitted like PVY are carried by the stylets of their aphid vectors.
