General Appearance

Adiantum pedatum (maidenhair fern) is a fern commonly used in landscapes and interiorscapes for its attractive foliage. A. pedatum is quite hardy and under conditions of good soil fertility it can become highly intrusive if left unchecked. Maidenhair fern showing symptoms associated with possible virus infection were collected from the Chadwick Arboretum on the campus of The Ohio State University, Columbus. The leaves of the affected plants were slightly malformed such that the pinnules were arranged irregularly at the pinna. The sequence of the pinnae on the rachis and the general appearance of the rachis were distorted. Overall, the symptoms observed were not as severe as those described by Nienhaus et al. on other species of ferns (1). Viral-associated double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) analysis was used to analyze tissue from symptomatic and asymptomatic plants for evidence of virus infection. Results of dsRNA analysis gave evidence of a possible cucumovirus. There was no evidence of dsRNA in the asymptomatic tissue. Symptomatic tissue was subsequently tested for cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) with a direct antibody sandwich, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). ELISA results were positive for CMV in symptomatic tissue and negative for CMV in asymptomatic tissue. This is the first report of a virus associated with a disease in A. pedatum. Reference: (1) F.

Rattlesnake master (Eryngium yuccifolium) is a wildflower that is native to Ohio. In recent years, native wildflowers have become very popular with home gardeners, and conservationists have begun to reestablish these plants in their native ranges. As native perennial wildflowers become more common, it is important to determine if they might serve as possible perennial reservoirs of viruses. A plot of 20 species native to Ohio was established on the Waterman Agricultural and Natural Resources Laboratory, The Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio. In the summers of 1999 and 2001, random samples were collected from established plantings. Some sampled plants did not show symptoms of virus infection; however, all samples of E. yuccifolium appeared chlorotic, slightly mottled, and stunted. Using double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) analysis (1), these plants were assayed for viral infection. dsRNA profiles obtained from symptomatic E. yuccifolium resembled that of Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV). These results were confirmed with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA; Agdia Inc., Elkhart, IN) for CMV. dsRNA-containing samples of E. yuccifolium produced ELISA absorbance values (A405) of 0.231 to 0.713 when compared with the negative control. All 14 samples of E. yuccifolium tested positive for CMV. To our knowledge, this is the first report of CMV in E. yuccifolium, which should serve as the basis for a more extensive survey, since CMV can potentially infect a wide variety of ornamental and nonornamental hosts.

Mixed Virus Infection

The occurrence of more than one virus species in a single plant is not uncommon in cultivated and native plant species. A mixed virus infection may lead to greater disease severity than individual viral components and this is sometimes referred to as a synergistic disease. Although, in some cases, synergism has been demonstrated for various plant growth parameters such as plant height, weight, and yield, proof of synergy typically has not been demonstrated for symptom severity when the mixed virus infection was not lethal. We demonstrated synergy in bell pepper plants co-infected with Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) and Pepper mottle virus (PepMoV) relative to each virus alone for stem height (two of three trials) and aboveground fresh weight (one of three trials) using factorial analysis and Abbott's equation for synergy. This approach allowed affirmation of the type of response (i.e., synergistic rather than antagonistic) and statistical proof of synergy. A detailed evaluation of symptom severity for each viral treatment revealed three phases associated with host plant developmental stages. A numerical symptom severity rating scale was developed and used in each of two equations to demonstrate statistical proof for synergy based on symptom severity for co-infected plants. Virus accumulation in noninoculated leaves was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. In singly infected plants, CMV titers declined in mildly symptomatic leaves representing later stages of plant development, but titers increased in similar leaves of co-infected plants. In contrast, PepMoV titers did not differ in singly or co-infected plants.

Garlic mustard (Alliaria officinalis) is a common weed species associated with woodland borders, hedge rows, and suburban gardens. Garlic mustard plants expressing foliar symptoms of leaf mosaic and vein banding were collected from Franklin and Cuyahoga counties in Ohio. Analysis of symptomatic tissue using viral-associated double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) analysis on 5% polyacrylamide gels and stained with ethidium bromide resulted in the production of a banding profile (four dsRNA bands with molecular weights of 2.6, 2.0, 1.5, and 0.7 × 106 daltons) similar to that of Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) (1). Symptomatic tissue suspected of being infected with CMV was analyzed with an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (iELISA) employing commercially produced antiserum (Agdia Inc.) against the common strain of CMV antiserum confirmed the presence of CMV. Nonsymptomatic tissue reacted negatively to CMV. This is the first report of CMV in garlic mustard in Ohio. Due to the extensive range of this weed and the wide host range of CMV in ornamental and food-plant species, garlic mustard could serve as an alternate host for CMV in many commercially important plant species.

Parsley plants are grown throughout Turkey as summer and winter crops. Diseased plants having typical of a virus infection such as mosaic, mottling, and leaf distortion symptoms were frequently observed in most of the parsley fields and vegetable public markets in the Middle Black Sea Region of Turkey in 2010. Using double-antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (DAS-ELISA), Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) was detected on the diseased parsley plants. However, using farmers and commercial seed lots, CMV was not detected in seeds or germinating seedlings.

Background Suppression is associated with binocular vision conditions such as amblyopia and strabismus. Commercial methods of testing fusion often only measure central fusion or suppression at near. The purpose of this pilot study was to assess a new iPad picture fusion test that assesses foveal and central fusion at near. Methods Participants aged 5 years and older presenting for eye examination at The Ohio State University College of Optometry were enrolled. Results from visual acuity, dry and wet refraction/retinoscopy, stereopsis and cover testing were recorded from the patient chart. The iPad picture fusion test, Worth four-dot, Worth type test with foveal letter targets, and Polarized four-dot were performed by one examiner in a randomized order at 40 cm. Testing was repeated with the anaglyphic filters reversed. Crosstabulation and McNemar chi-square analysis were used to compare the results between fusion testing devices. Results Of the fifty participants (mean age = 17.5), twelve reported suppression and one reported diplopia. Testability was excellent for all tests (98% to 100%). There were no significant differences between tests in reported results (P ≥ 0.22 for all comparisons). No difference in reported fusion or suppression status was observed with change in orientation of the anaglyphic filters. Six participants reported foveal suppression alone at near which was not identified with Worth four-dot at near. Conclusion The iPad picture fusion test provided excellent testability and agreement with commonly used tests of fusion and allowed testing of both central and foveal fusion at near. Nearly half (46%) of participants with suppression reported foveal suppression, supporting the importance of testing for foveal suppression.
