Two experiments, one in Guadeloupe and one in Réunion Island, were performed to transmit different genotypes of Sugarcane yellow leaf virus (SCYLV) to eight sugarcane cultivars differing in resistance to infection by the virus and to yellow leaf. Transmission was attempted from SCYLV-infected sugarcane plants or leaves to healthy tissue-cultured plantlets grown in vitro and with the aphid vector Melanaphis sacchari. After inoculation and elimination of insects with an insecticide, plantlets were transferred to Montpellier, France and grown in a greenhouse. Plants were tested for presence of SCYLV by tissue-blot immunoassay and reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction after 5 to 6 months of growth. SCYLV genotypes BRA-PER, CUB, and REU were detected in 47, 62, and 39% of plants inoculated with these genotypes in Guadeloupe, respectively. SCYLV genotypes BRA-PER and REU and a mixed infection of genotypes BRA-PER and REU were detected in 56, 33, and 42% of plants inoculated with these genotypes in Réunion Island, respectively. Genotypes BRA-PER and CUB could be transmitted to all eight sugarcane cultivars, but genotype REU could never be transmitted to resistant sugarcane cvs. H78-4153 and H78-3567. SCYLV genotype REU was transmitted successfully to sugarcane cv. R570 in Guadeloupe, but not in Réunion Island. Genotypes BRA-PER and CUB induced yellow leaf symptoms in susceptible or highly susceptible sugarcane cultivars, whereas genotype REU induced very few symptoms. SCYLV was not found in several symptomatic plants, suggesting an association of disease with undetectable populations of the virus or a nonviral cause. This is the first report of variation in infection capacity and in virulence of SCYLV.

Leaf Virus

In 1998, sugarcane plants with symptoms similar to yellow leaf syndrome were observed in Ecuador, Guatemala, and Nicaragua. These plants showed yellowing of the central portion of the third to sixth leaves on the abaxial surface from the youngest expanding spindle leaf. Intense yellowing and necrosis of the leaf tip and the central portion of the leaf blade near the midrib occurred in severe cases. A tissue blot immunoassay was used to detect Sugarcane yellow leaf virus (SCYLV) in the midrib of the top visible dewlap leaf (2) using an antiserum specific to a Florida isolate of SCYLV (1). Since the virus can be detected in asymptomatic plants, leaf samples were collected from both symptomatic and asymptomatic plants. Symptom expression was most intense in plants at maturity that were under stress. Cut ends of leaf samples were imprinted on nitrocellulose membranes in the country of origin, and control samples of healthy and SCYLV-infected leaves were imprinted in Florida on each membrane prior to serological processing. The results from the following locations and cultivars, and the ratio of SCYLV-positive samples over the total samples is indicated: Milagro, Ecuador, PR 70-2085 (11/24) and PR 76-3385 (48/63) in 1999; Escuintla, Guatemala, CP 57-603 (1/10), CP 73-1547 (0/10), CP 72-2086 (120/308), PR 75-2002 (8/11), PR 78-294 (10/10), and PR 87-2080 (13/13) in both 2000 and 2001; Tipitapa, Nicaragua, L 68-40 (21/70) in 1998; and Chinandega, Nicaragua, CP 72-2086 (30/30) and CP 74-2005 (13/45) in 2000. CP 72-2086 is a major commercial cultivar in Central American countries and was infected in both Guatemala and Nicaragua. SCYLV was detected in 9 of 10 cultivars sampled. An exception was noticed in CP 73-1547 in Guatemala where none of the 10 plants tested were infected; however this cultivar has a high incidence of SCYLV in Florida. Only 1 of 10 samples of CP 57-603 was SCYLV positive in Guatemala; however, this cultivar has a low incidence of infection in Florida and is considered more resistant than the other CP cultivars sampled. To our knowledge, this is the first report SCYLV in Ecuador, Guatemala, and Nicaragua. References: (1) S. M. Scagliusi and B. E. L. Lockhart. Phytopathology 90:120, 2000. (2) S. Schenck et al.

Leaf Virus

Sugarcane yellow leaf virus (SCYLV), a Polerovirus in the family Luteoviridea, causes yellow leaf disease (YLD). Yield losses from YLD have been reported from several countries in both symptomatic and asymptomatic sugarcane cultivars. The breeding nursery at Canal Point (CP) in 2016 and primary and secondary seed increases in the CP cultivar development program at grower’s farm from 2015 to 2019 were surveyed for SCYLV infection by the tissue-blot immunoassay using polyclonal antibodies raised against SCYLV. More than 32% of varieties in the CP breeding nursery were infected with SCYLV in 2016. The SCYLV data of primary and secondary seedcane increases from 2015 to 2019 showed that out of 54 varieties screened at different locations, 12 had no SCYLV-positive plants, 24 had less than 5%, 5 had 6% to 12%, and 13 had 20% to 75% of the plants infected with SCYLV. The SCYLV screenings in varieties in the primary and secondary seed increase plantings provide growers an opportunity to acquire virus-free clean seedcane by apical meristem propagation to minimize the spread of the SCYLV and avoid yield losses.

AbstractSugarcane yellow leaf (SCYL), caused by the sugarcane yellow leaf virus (SCYLV) is a major disease affecting sugarcane, a leading sugar and energy crop. Despite damages caused by SCYLV, the genetic base of resistance to this virus remains largely unknown. Several methodologies have arisen to identify molecular markers associated with SCYLV resistance, which are crucial for marker-assisted selection and understanding response mechanisms to this virus. We investigated the genetic base of SCYLV resistance using dominant and codominant markers and genotypes of interest for sugarcane breeding. A sugarcane panel inoculated with SCYLV was analyzed for SCYL symptoms, and viral titer was estimated by RT-qPCR. This panel was genotyped with 662 dominant markers and 70,888 SNPs and indels with allele proportion information. We used polyploid-adapted genome-wide association analyses and machine-learning algorithms coupled with feature selection methods to establish marker-trait associations. While each approach identified unique marker sets associated with phenotypes, convergences were observed between them and demonstrated their complementarity. Lastly, we annotated these markers, identifying genes encoding emblematic participants in virus resistance mechanisms and previously unreported candidates involved in viral responses. Our approach could accelerate sugarcane breeding targeting SCYLV resistance and facilitate studies on biological processes leading to this trait.
