“…Taiwan has a much longer history of passionfruit cultivation than most other regions of East and Southeast Asia (Chong et al 2018). In the past decade, Taiwan has served as a center for the dispersal of passionfruit propagation materials.…”

Passionfruit (Passiflora edulis) is widely cultivated in tropical and subtropical regions around the world. Several viruses of the genus Potyvirus pose serious threat to passion fruit production. The origin, dispersal and evolution of these potyviruses, however, are poorly understood. Here, we investigated the genetic structure of telosma mosaic virus (TelMV), a potyvirus that infects passionfruit in East and Southeast Asia, after a survey of its incidence in passionfruit plants of China. The phylogeny inferred from 140 nucleotide sequences of the coat protein (CP) gene of TelMV, including 96 determined in this study, separated this virus into 4 clades. TelMV isolates from passionfruit were placed into Clade 1–3, while those from other plant species into Clade 4. Interestingly, TelMV isolates of passionfruit from Thailand were found in all the three clades of Clade 1–3, but those from China and Vietnam were found exclusively in Clade 1. Nevertheless, TelMV isolates within Clade 1 tended to cluster according to their geographical origin. Geographical populations from Thailand, Taiwan and Hainan islands of China showed significant genetic differences with one another and with those from Guangxi, Fujian, Guangdong, Yunnan and Jiangsu provinces of China. Altogether, these data suggest that several distinct TelMV clades had arisen from the passionfruit of Thailand, but only one of which was dispersed. In expanding its distribution, this clade of TelMV has undergone geography-associated evolution. Further studies on this hypothesis may shed new insights into mechanisms underlying the emergence of potyviral diseases in passionfruit plants.

“…The cultivation area has increased in Jiangxi province, China. Euphorbia leaf curl virus (EuLCV) and papaya leaf curl Guangdong virus (PaLCuGDV), which can cause obvious symptoms on passion fruit, were first reported in Asia (Cheng et al 2014, Kil et al 2016. In July 2018, 57 passion fruit leaf samples, with symptoms of mosaic, malformation, chlorotic ringspot or yellowing, were collected from Ganzhou, Jiangxi province.…”
