genetic diversity and distribution of a distinct strain of chili leaf curl virus and associated betasatellite infecting tomato and pepper in oman.tomato and pepper are widely grown in oman for local consumption. a countrywide survey was conducted during 2010-2011 to collect samples and assess the diversity of begomoviruses associated with leaf curl disease of tomato and pepper. a virus previously only identified on the indian subcontinent, chili leaf curl virus (chlcv), was found associated with tomato and pepper diseases in all vegetable grown areas of oman. some of the infected plant samples were also found to contain a betasatellite. a ...201323911631
recent evolution of a novel begomovirus causing tomato leaf curl disease in the al-batinah region of oman.for last two decades, begomoviruses (family geminiviridae) have been a major constraint for tomato production in oman, particularly in the al-batinah region, the major agricultural area of oman. farms in the al-batinah region were surveyed during january-march and november-december in 2012 and january-february in 2013. leaf samples of tomato plants showing typical leaf curl disease symptoms were collected and analyzed for begomoviruses. out of fifteen begomovirus clones sequenced, seven were sho ...201424052149
pepper leaf curl lahore virus requires the dna b component of tomato leaf curl new delhi virus to cause leaf curl symptoms.begomoviruses are whitefly-transmitted geminiviruses with genomes that consist of either two components (known as dna a and dna b) or a single component (homologous to the dna a component of bipartite begomoviruses). monopartite begomoviruses are often associated with a symptom-modulating dna satellite (collectively known as betasatellites). both bipartite and monopartite begomoviruses with associated satellites have previously been identified in chillies showing leaf curl symptoms in pakistan.201021144019
chili leaf curl betasatellite is associated with a distinct recombinant begomovirus, pepper leaf curl lahore virus, in capsicum in pakistan.capsium spp. are an important vegetable crop cultivated through pakistan. leaf curl disease is the major disease of capsicum spp. in pakistan caused by viruses. the disease has previously been shown to be associated with begomoviruses and betasatellites. we have cloned and sequenced a begomovirus and its associated betasatellite from capsicum originating from central pakistan. the begomovirus isolated was distinct from all previously characterised viruses and we propose the name pepper leaf curl ...201020079779
