Cotton leaf curl disease – an emerging threat to cotton production worldwide

Abstract: Cotton leaf curl disease (CLCuD) is a serious disease of cotton which has characteristic symptoms, the most unusual of which is the formation of leaf-like enations on the undersides of leaves. The disease is caused by whitefly-transmitted geminiviruses (family Geminiviridae, genus Begomovirus) in association with specific, symptom-modulating satellites (betasatellites) and an evolutionarily distinct group of satellite-like molecules known as alphasatellites. CLCuD occurs across Africa as well as in Pakistan an… Show more

“…The results of virus symptoms appearance were in accordance with (16) and (17). The role of beta satellite Azmat Ullah Khan M. et al molecules.μL -1 of β-satellite was maximum in G. hirsutum, while it was not detectable in G. arboreum C: molecules.μL -1 of DNA-A was maximum in G. hirsutum, while it was not detectable in G. arboreum whereas the error bars represent the variation among 3 replicates is well-defined in suppressing the phyto-immune system that ultimately results in development of severe viral symptoms (18,19).…”

“…The situation in southern Asia is more complex than in Africa: during the two CLCuD epidemics in Pakistan and India, at least six distinct begomovirus species have been identified in cotton (Kirthi et al, 2004;Sattar et al, 2013;Brown et al, 2015).…”

“…It was also recently reported in China. This disease is characterized by several whitefly transmitted begomoviruses (Family: Geminiviridae, Genus: Begomovirus) associated with specific satellite molecules (alpha-and betasatellites), which are responsible for symptom development (Sattar et al, 2013). The infected cotton plants (Gossypium L.) show a range of symptoms including vein thickening/ swelling, leaf enations (which develop into leaf-like structures in extreme cases), and cupshaped leaf curling.…”
