Weed-infecting viruses in a tropical agroecosystem present different threats to crops and evolutionary histories

Abstract: In the Caribbean Basin, malvaceous weeds commonly show striking golden/yellow mosaic symptoms. Leaf samples from Malachra sp. and Abutilon sp. plants with these symptoms were collected in Hispaniola from 2014 to 2020. PCR tests with degenerate primers revealed that all samples were infected with a bipartite begomovirus, and sequence analyses showed that Malachra sp. plants were infected with tobacco leaf curl Cuba virus (TbLCuCV), whereas the Abutilon sp. plants were infected with a new bipartite begomovirus, … Show more

“…and Abutilon sp. with golden-yellow mosaic symptoms were collected in Haiti and the Dominican Republic from 2014-2020 (Maliano et al, 2021). Malachra was found to be infected with the begomovirus tobacco leaf curl Cuba virus (TbLCuCV), Abutilon with a new begomovirus with the tentative name Abutilon golden yellow mosaic virus (AbGYMV).…”

“…These weeds may act as the virus reservoir for the future outbreak in crops (Melgarejo et al 2015). There are a number of reports of crop-infecting begomoviruses occurring in weeds which proves that the weeds act as reservoir hosts (Mubin et al 2012;Prajapat et al 2014;Leke et al 2015;Maliano et al 2021).…”
