Rice yellow mottle virus (RYMV), endemic in Africa, is believed to be spread by chrysomelid beetles, although the infections in a field often cannot be explained by the prevailing number of beetles. We show that the grass rat Arvicanthis niloticus, domestic cows (Bos spp.), and donkeys (Asinus spp.) are potent and efficient transmitters of RYMV. Spread of RYMV by rats was demonstrated in cage experiments wherein individual rats transmitted the virus from healthy to infected rice plants and confirmed in a field experiment. Experiments with cows and donkeys showed that they could transmit the virus in plots with healthy and infected plants and to plots with healthy plants. A high percentage of seedlings became infected when a cow grazed in a seedbed after being fed with infected rice plants. Transmission also was observed when cows were allowed to graze on the stubble of infected fields. The disease incidence increased at least fourfold over time to approximately 36% of the plants infected in the experimental plots of two stubble fields. The results obtained in these stubble fields suggest that cattle-mediated spread will enhance the size of the virus load in the contraseason and the infection potential to infect the next crop.

Three cultivars of Oryza sativa (IR64, Azucena, and Gigante) and four cultivars of O. glaberrima (Tog5681, Tog5673, CG14, and SG329) were evaluated for their resistance to two isolates of rice yellow mottle virus (RYMV) by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and symptomatology. Cultivars Tog5681 and Gigante were highly resistant, and no symptoms were observed when either virus isolate was inoculated at 10 or 20 days postgermination and assayed by ELISA at 7, 14, 22, 35, 50, or 64 days postinoculation. Azucena showed a partial resistance, whereas the other cultivars were susceptible. Symptom appearance was associated with increase in ELISA absorbance in the systemically infected leaves. The best discrimination among the cultivars occurred when the plants were inoculated at 10 days postgermination. Crosses were made between the highly resistant (Gigante and Tog5681) and the susceptible (IR64) cultivars to determine the genetic basis of resistance to RYMV. Evaluation of F1 hybrids and interspecific progenies, as well as the segregation of resistance in F2 and F3 lines of the IR64 × Gigante cross, provided results consistent with the presence of a single recessive resistance gene common to Tog5681 and Gigante.

ABSTRACT Five isolates of Rice yellow mottle virus from western Kenya were fully sequenced. One isolate of strain S4lv had been collected in 1966. Two isolates belonged to the emerging strain S4ug recently described in Uganda. Two isolates collected in 2012 are putative recombinants between the S4lv and S4ug strains.
