Three Previously Unrecorded Viral Diseases of Astilbe, Fuschia, and Thermopsis Species in Minnesota

Interest in virus diseases of perennial ornamentals has been increasing because of their increasing monetary value, because wholesale producers perceive an advantage in marketing disease-free stock, and because widespread international movement of these plants carries the risk of introduction of exo...

520 |a Interest in virus diseases of perennial ornamentals has been increasing because of their increasing monetary value, because wholesale producers perceive an advantage in marketing disease-free stock, and because widespread international movement of these plants carries the risk of introduction of exotic viruses. In an ongoing study to identify and document viral diseases of perennial ornamentals used in the United States commercial horticultural industry, three virus-like diseases of astilbe (Astilbe chinensis), fuschia (Fuschia cv. Gartenmeister) and false lupine (Thermopsis caroliniana) occurring in Minnesota were investigated. Symptomatic plants were selected from lots in commercial greenhouses and garden centers in several locations in Minnesota. Astilbe with systemic chlorosis was found to be infected with Tobacco ringspot virus (TRSV). Fuschia with leaf mottling and leaf deformation was found to be infected with Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), and false lupine with mosaic and leaf deformation symptoms was found to be infected with Bean yellow mosaic virus (BYMV). Identification of the three viruses was based on: 1) virion presence and morphology in partially purified leaf extracts using electron microscopy (EM) and immunosorbent electron microscopy (1); 2) enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using crude leaf extracts; and 3) biological properties, including symptoms produced in indicator plants. Antisera to BYMV (ATCC PVAS-368), CMV (ATCC PVAS-30), and TRSV (ATCC PVAS-157) were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection, Manassas, VA. No other virus-like particles were observed with EM in partially purified leaf extracts of the three plants, no virus-like particles were observed in similar preparations from asymptomatic plants, and indicator plant tests did not indicate the presence of any other mechanically transmissible viruses. The TRSV isolate from astilbe and the BYMV isolate from false lupine produced typical symptoms on indicator plants susceptible to known isolates of these two viruses. The CMV isolate from fuschia was similar to previously described isolates of CMV (2) in most respects and was readily transmitted in a nonpersistent manner by Myzus persicae, but was unusual in that it did not infect Nicotiania benthamiana, N. glutinosa, and tomato, which are normally highly susceptible to infection by CMV. The identity of the fuschia CMV isolate was further confirmed by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) amplification with CMV-specific oligonucleotide primers (3). The PCR product was of the predicted size (500 bp) and was cleaved by restriction digestion with EcoRI, suggesting that the fuschia virus is a Type II CMV isolate (3). To my knowledge, this is the first report of TRSV infection in astilbe, CMV infection in fuschia, and of a viral disease of false lupine. References: (1) Y. C. Ahlawat et al. Plant Dis. 80:590, 1996.
