Characterization of a Virus from Pigeonpea with Affinities to Species in the Genus Aureusvirus, Family Tombusviridae

Abstract: In attempts to identify the causal agent of pigeonpea sterility mosaic disease (PSMD), which is transmitted by eriophyid mites, a virus was isolated with great difficulty from some PSMD-affected pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan) plants from different locations in India. Once isolated from pigeonpea, the virus was transmitted readily by mechanical inoculation to several herbaceous species, reaching very high concentrations in some species. The virus was transmitted experimentally through soil to herbaceous test plants … Show more

“…Leaf samples were plucked in labelled separate Ziploc bags placed in ice chest with dry ice and transported to the lab. SMD infected pigeonpea samples from the field may be infected by other viruses as low and rare incidences of other viral infections 67 , 68 have been reported. In addition, Tobacco streak virus (TSV) has been reported affecting pigeonpea plants in the fields 69 .…”

“…Purified viral RNA (2 µg) was mixed with 4.5 µg of random hexamers (Promega) and the mixture was denatured with 20 mM methyl mercuric hydroxide for 30 min at room temperature and quenched on ice for 10 min. The mixture then was used for cDNA synthesis using the Universal Riboclone Synthesis kit (Promega) and cloned into the pCR4-Blunt TOPO vector (Invitrogen) as described previously (27). Recombinant clones were screened for inserts and clones containing inserts of >400 bp were isolated using the QIAminiprep kit (Qiagen) and sequenced by dideoxy sequencing using the Universal M13 forward and reverse primers as described previously (25).…”

“…A purification procedure to minimize the influence of such components before inoculation onto herbaceous test plants led to the isolation of an Aureusvirus from pigeonpea (27), but this virus was present in only some SMD-infected plants and also in healthy plants (27). Simultaneously, attempts were made to isolate and purify the SMD causal agent directly from SMD-affected pigeonpea using methods for isolating viruses from woody plants or for unstable viruses.…”
