Soybean has been increasing in importance and acreage over wheat and corn for the past decade in Ohio and is now planted on 4.5 million acres. Previous surveys in Ohio of viruses infecting soybean failed to identify Bean pod mottle virus (BPMV) and soybean virus diseases have rarely caused economic losses (1). During 1999, producers in Ohio noticed virus-like symptoms in soybeans in a few isolated locations. Soybeans with green stems, undersized and “turned up pods” were collected from Union, Wood and Wyandot Counties during October 1999 and soybeans with crinkled, mottled leaves were collected in Henry, Licking and Sandusky during August 2000. Five to six plants were collected from a single field from each county each year. In 1999, samples were sent to the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where one symptomatic leaflet/sample was ground in 3 ml of chilled phosphate buffered saline (pH 7.2). Leaf sap was placed in 1.5-ml centrifuge tubes and stored at 4°C for 24 h. Sap was assayed for the presence of BPMV using an alkaline phosphatase-labeled double-antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (DAS ELISA) for BPMV (AgDia Inc., Elkhart, IN). All samples tested were positive for BPMV. Samples collected in 1999 were also maintained at The Ohio State University in Harosoy soybean and in 2000 assayed serologically along with samples collected in 2000 for BPMV and Soybean mosaic virus (SMV) by ELISA and for Tobacco ringspot virus (TRSV) and Bean yellow mosaic virus (BYMV) by a host-range symptom assay; SMV, BYMV and TRSV had been identified from soybean in previous Ohio surveys. Soybean leaf samples were assayed using F(ab′)2-Protein A ELISA with antiserum prepared in 1968 to a southern U.S. isolate of BPMV and to an Ohio isolate of Soybean mosaic virus (SMV) prepared in 1967, both stored at −20°C. Diseased and non-symptomatic soybean leaf samples were ground in 4 ml 0.025M Tris pH 8.0, 0.015M NaCl and 0.05% Tween 20. Extracts were tested for BPMV and SMV by ELISA following a protocol described elsewhere (2). All of the samples collected during 1999 and maintained in the greenhouse tested positive for both BPMV and SMV while all of those samples collected during 2000 tested positive for BPMV and negative for SMV. Host-range symptom assays were conducted with leaf extracts prepared by grinding 1 g tissue:10 ml potassium phosphate buffer, pH 7.0. Extracts were inoculated by leaf rub method to Harosoy soybean, Phaseolus vulgaris cvs. Red Kidney and Bountiful, cowpea, and cucumber. The host-range symptom assays of both the 1999 and 2000 samples were negative for TRSV and BYMV; cowpea failed to express local lesions and cucumber systemic mosaic characteristic of TRSV infection and the two Phaseolus cultivars the yellow mosaic characteristic of BYMV infection. These results indicate that both BPMV and SMV were present in the samples in 1999 but only BPMV in 2000. The distribution of BPMV within Ohio and economic impact of this virus have yet to be determined. This is the first report of BPMV in Ohio. References: (1) A. F. Schmitthenner and D. T. Gordon.

In 2001, soybean fields were surveyed to determine the incidence of viruses because soybean aphids (Aphis glycines Matsamura), known to transmit Soybean mosaic virus (SMV) (2), were found in Ontario. In addition, bean leaf beetle (Cerotoma trifurcata Forster) was found during 2000 to be contaminated with Bean pod mottle virus (BPMV), although soybean plants, on which the beetles were feeding, tested negative (3). In the current survey, young soybean leaves were selected at random in July and August from 20 plants per site at growth stages R4 to R5 (1) from 415 sites representing the entire soybean-producing area in Ontario. Samples were maintained under cool conditions until received at the laboratory, where they were promptly processed. A combined sub-sample was obtained from the 20 plants per site. The 415 sub-samples were tested for SMV, BPMV, Tobacco ringspot virus (TRSV), and Tobacco streak virus (TSV) using polyclonal antibody kits for double-antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (DAS-ELISA) (Agdia Inc., Elkart, IN). The ELISA plates were read with a plate reader (MRX, Dynex Technologies Inc., Chantilly, VA), and results were analyzed using ELISA software (Leading Edge Research, Merrickville, Ontario) and compared positive and negative controls (Agdia). TRSV was detected in one sample from Essex County and another sample from Middlesex County. SMV, BPMV, and TSV were not found in commercial soybean fields. However, SMV and BPMV were found in samples originating from two soybean breeding nurseries, one in Essex County and one in Kent County. Seedlings of soybean cv. Williams 82 were inoculated in the greenhouse with sap from leaf samples that tested positive for BPMV. Leaves of plants that developed mosaic symptoms were retested using ELISA and confirmed to be positive for BPMV. SMV and TRSV have been found previously in commercial soybean fields in Ontario (4). To our knowledge, this is the first report of BPMV on soybean plants in Canada. References: (1) W. R. Fehr et al. Merr. Crop. Sci. 11:929, 1971. (2) J. H. Hill et al. Plant Dis. 85:561, 2001. (3) A.

Soybean seed coat mottling often has been a problematic symptom for soybean growers and the soybean industry. The percentages of seed in eight soybean lines with seed coat mottling were evaluated at harvest after inoculating plants during the growing season with Bean pod mottle virus (BPMV), Soybean mosaic virus (SMV), and both viruses inside an insect-proof cage in the field. Results from experiments conducted over 2 years indicated that plants infected with BPMV and SMV, alone or in combination, produced seed coat mottling, whereas noninoculated plants produced little or no mottled seed. BPMV and SMV inoculated on the same plants did not always result in higher percentages of mottled seed compared with BPMV or SMV alone. There was significant virus, line, and virus-line interaction for seed coat mottling. The non-seed-coat-mottling gene (Im) in Williams isoline L77-5632 provided limited, if any, protection against mottling caused by SMV and none against BPMV. The Peanut mottle virus resistance gene Rpv1 in Williams isoline L85-2308 did not give any protection against mottling caused by SMV, whereas the SMV resistance gene Rsv1 in Williams isoline L78-379 and the resistance gene or genes in the small-seeded line L97-946 gave high levels of protection against mottling caused by SMV. The correlations (r = 0.77 for year 2000 and r = 0.89 for year 2001) between virus infection of the parent plant and seed coat mottling were significant (P = 0.01), indicating that virus infection of plants caused seed coat mottling.

The incidence of soybean viruses is increasing across the North Central Region of the United States as indicated by survey efforts and grower reports from several states. To determine the level of virus infection in Nebraska, we surveyed soybean fields for two consecutive years. Alfalfa mosaic virus (AMV) was detected in 52% of the fields in 2001 and in 56% of fields in 2002. The incidence of Bean pod mottle virus (BPMV) varied more, with 54% of fields testing positive in 2001 and 91% testing positive in 2002. Soybean mosaic virus (SMV) was not detected in 2001, but it was detected in 31% of fields in 2002. The widespread distribution of detected SMV in 2002 is suggestive of introduction with seed. The incidence of BPMV was significantly higher in fields planted earlier than the recommended optimum planting date in one of the two years studied. The widespread incidence of AMV and BPMV and the irregular occurrence of SMV indicate that further studies of soybean viral diseases in Nebraska are warranted. Accepted for publication 13 March 2006.

Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) has been increasing in importance and acreage for the past 5 years in Iran and is now planted on approximately 108,000 ha. Previous surveys in Iran of viruses infecting soybean failed to identify Bean pod mottle virus (BPMV), but the incidence of other common viruses of soybean in the field has been reported (1). During October 2004, symptoms characteristic of those caused by BPMV including mosaic, puckering of trifoliate leaves, and delayed maturity of stems or green stems were observed in soybean fields in the Takhti Mahaleh, Versen, and Hashemabad areas located in the Gorgan Province. Sporadic incidence of plants infected with BPMV has been usually of minor importance to growers. Symptoms were often overlooked or considered to be physiological disorders. A visual assessment was made to determine incidence of green stem in the commonly grown soybean cv. Sahar. Forty soybean plants showing symptoms of crinkling, mottling, green stem, and retaining green leaves were sampled by collecting one trifoliate leaf near the top of the plant. All samples were tested in parallel for BPMV using double-antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (DAS-ELISA). BPMV was detected in 40% of the samples. Seven of the samples shown to be infected with BPMV using DAS-ELISA were mechanically (2) transferred to soybean seedlings in the greenhouse. These plants developed systemic mottle symptoms typical of those caused by BPMV and tested positive for BPMV using DAS-ELISA. The distribution of BPMV within soybean-growing regions, exploration of potential virus reservoirs, and economic impact of this virus have yet to be determined. There is no published report on the presence of potential BPMV vectors including the bean leaf beetle (Cerotoma trifurcata) from soybean fields in Iran. To our knowledge, this is the first report of BPMV in Iran. References: (1) A. R. Golnaraghi et al. Plant Dis.88:1069, 2004. (2) R. Louie et al. Plant Dis.84:1133, 2000.

In July 2013, soybean (Glycine max) plants at the research field in Daegu, South Korea, showed virus-like symptoms, such as mosaic, mottle, yellowing, and stunting. Overall, there were approximately 1% of soybean plants that showed these symptoms. Sixteen soybean samples were collected based on visual symptoms and subjected to laboratory characterization. Total RNA was extracted from each sample with the Tri Reagent (Molecular Research Center, Cincinnati, OH) and cDNA was synthesized using random N25 primer with RevertAid Reverse Transcriptase (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA), according to the manufacturers' instructions. All samples were tested by PCR with Prime Taq Premix (2X) (GeNet Bio, Daejeon, Korea) and primer sets specific to Soybean mosaic virus (SMV; 5′-CATATCAGTTTGTTGGGCA-3′ and 5′-TGCCTATACCCTCAACAT-3′), Peanut stunt virus (PSV; 5′-TGACCGCGTGCCAGTAGGAT-3′ and 5′-AGGTDGCTTTCTWTTGRATTTA-3′), Soybean yellow mottle mosaic virus (SYMMV; 5′-CAACCCTCAGCCACATTCAACTAT-3′ and 5′-TCTAACCACCCCACCCGAAGGATT-3′), and Soybean yellow common mosaic virus (SYCMV; 5′-TTGGCTGAGAGGAGTGGCTT-3′ and 5′-TGCGGTCGTGTAGTCAGTG-3′). Among 16 samples tested, five were positive for SMV and two for SYMMV. Three samples were found infected by both SMV and SYMMV and four by both SMV and PSV. Since two of the symptomatic samples were not infected by viruses described above, a pair of primers specific to Peanut mottle virus (PeMoV; 5′-GCTGTGAATTGTTGTTGAGAA-3′ and 5′-ACAATGATGAAGTTCGTTAC-3′) was tested (1). All 16 samples were subjected to RT-PCR with primers specific to PeMoV. Four were found positive for PeMoV. Two of them were already found infected with SYMMV. In order to identify the complete nucleotide sequences of PeMoV coat protein (CP), another primer set (5′-TGAGCAGGAAAGAATTGTTTC-3′ and 5′-GGAAGCGATATACACACCAAC-3′) was used. RT-PCR product was cloned into RBC TA Cloning Vector (RBC Bioscience, Taipei, Taiwan) and the nucleotide sequence of the insert was determined by Macrogen (Seoul, Korea). CP gene of the PeMoV (GenBank Accession No. KJ664838) showed the highest nucleotide sequence identity with PeMoV isolate Habin (KF977830; 99% identity), and the highest amino acid identity with GenBank Accession No. ABI97347 (100% identity). In order to fulfill Koch's postulates, several G. max cv. Williams 82 were inoculated with the extracts of PeMoV-infected leaf tissue. At 14 days post-inoculation, plants showed systemic mottle symptoms. These symptomatic plants were subjected to RT-PCR, and the nucleotide sequences of the PCR product were found identical to that of the virus in the inoculum. To our knowledge, this is the first report of soybean-infecting PeMoV, a member of the genus Potyvirus in the family Potyviridae, in South Korea. Reference: (1) R. G. Dietzgen et al.

In mid-June 2008, distinct mosaic leaves were observed on a cluster of clover (Trifolium spp.) with light pink and white flowers growing at the edge of a lawn in Palmer, AK. Virus minipurification from leaves of affected clover and protein extractions on a polyacrylamide electrophoresis implicated a ~35-kDa putative coat protein (CP). Subsequent western blots and ELISA with a universal potyvirus antiserum (Agdia Inc., Elkhart, IN) confirmed potyvirus identity. Total RNA extracts (RNeasy Plant Mini Kit, Qiagen Inc., Valencia, CA) from the same plant were used for reverse transcription (RT)-PCR. Three sets of degenerate primers that targeted potyvirus-specific genes, HC-Pro (helper component protease) and CI (cylindrical inclusion protein) and the genomic 3′-terminus that included a partial NIb (nuclear inclusion), CP (coat protein), and UTR (untranslated region), produced the expected PCR segments (~0.7, ~0.7, and ~1.6 kbp, respectively) on 1% agarose gels (1). Direct sequencing of the HC-Pro (GenBank No. GQ181115), CI (GQ181116), and CP (GU126690) segments revealed 98, 97, and 99% nucleotide identities (no gaps), respectively, to Bean yellow mosaic virus (BYMV)-chlorotic spot (CS) strain, GenBank No. AB373203. The next closest BYMV percent identity comparisons decreased to 79% for HC-Pro (GenBank No. DQ641248; BYMV-W), 79% for CI (U47033; BYMV-S) partial genes, and 96% for CP (AB041971; BYMV-P242). Mechanical inoculations of purified virus preparations produced local lesions on Chenopodium amaranticolor Coste & A. Reyn. (2 of 5) and C. quinoa Willd. (6 of 7), and mosaic on Nicotiana benthamiana Domin (5 of 5). BYMV was specifically confirmed on tester plants using a double-antibody sandwich (DAS)-ELISA BYMV (strain 204 and B25) kit (AC Diagnostics, Inc., Fayetteville, AR) as directed. The absence of another potyvirus commonly found in clover, Clover yellow vein virus (ClYVV), was verified in parallel DAS-ELISA ClYVV assays (AC Diagnostics, Inc). The BYMV isolate was maintained in N. benthamiana, and virion or sap extracts inoculated to the following host range (number of infected/total inoculated plants [verified by BYMV ELISA]): Cucumis sativus L. ‘Straight Eight’ (0/5), Gomphrena globosa L. (1/4), Nicotiana clevelandii A. Gray (4/7), Phaseolus vulgaris L. ‘Bountiful’ (1/3), Pisum sativum L. (Germplasm Resources Information Network Accession Nos. -PI 508092 (8/12), -W6 17525 (13/13), -W6 17529 (0/13), -W6 17530 (13/14), -W6 17537 (0/12), -W6 17538 (0/12), and -W6 17539 (0/21), Tetragonia tetragoniodes (2/2), Trifolium pretense L. ‘Altaswede’ (6/10), T. repens L. ‘Pilgrim’ (0/8), and Vicia faba L. (1/3). All infected plants had symptoms ranging from systemic mosaic (T. pretense, P. sativum) to leaf distortions (N. clevelandii, Tetragonia tetragoniodes). Interestingly, the host range and genomic sequences of the BYMV Alaskan strain resemble the BYMV-CS (chlorotic spot) strain that was originally isolated from a diseased red clover (T. pretense) plant in Japan more than 40 years ago (2). Although BYMV occurs worldwide and has a wide host range in dictoyledonous and monocotyledonous plants (3), to our knowledge, this is the first report of a natural occurrence of BYMV in Alaska. The incidence and distribution of BYMV in clover and other plant species are not known in Alaska. References: (1) C. Ha et al. Arch. Virol. 153:36, 2008. (2) H. Kume et al. Mem. Fac. Agric.
