First Report of Sweet potato leaf curl virus in Peru

Leaf curling symptoms have been reported in sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) plants infected with a geminivirus (1). Leaf curl disease appeared in Peru after the 1997 to 1998 El Niño, when the population and activity of whiteflies (Bemisia tabaci, B. argentifolii, and B. afer) increased. Approximately...

520 |a Leaf curling symptoms have been reported in sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) plants infected with a geminivirus (1). Leaf curl disease appeared in Peru after the 1997 to 1998 El Niño, when the population and activity of whiteflies (Bemisia tabaci, B. argentifolii, and B. afer) increased. Approximately 6% of plants in farmers' commercial fields in San Ramón, Junín (September 2000) and Cañete, Lima (February 2001) showed typical leaf curling symptoms. Seventeen plants in total were collected from both places, and stem scions from those plants were graft-inoculated to I. setosa, which developed symptoms of leaf curling, interveinal chlorosis, and stunting. Total nucleic acid was obtained from infected sweet potato and I. setosa plants using cetyltrimethylammoniumbromide (CTAB) extraction, and primers PW285-3 (5'-CGT CGT TAG CAG TCT GCA GGC CTC CTC TAG-3') and PW285-4 (5' -AAC TGT AAA TAC GGA ACT GCA GTT CGA ATT-3') for Sweet potato leaf curl virus (SPLCV), developed and provided by R. Valverde and C. Clark of Louisiana State University (2), were used to amplify SPLCV by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Expected DNA fragments of ca. 900 bp (in all samples) and 2.4 kp (in some samples), characteristic of the subgenomic and genomic DNAs of SPLCV respectively, were obtained from symptomatic but not from symptomless (uninfected) plants. This 2.4-kb fragment was amplified in relatively small amounts compared to the 900-bp fragment. Presence of SPLCV was also confirmed by nucleic acid spot hybridization using a full-length clone of SPLCV-US. Fourteen of 17 plants infected with SPLCV were also infected with Sweet potato chlorotic stunt virus (determined by nitrocellulose membrane enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay serological test), which is also transmitted by whiteflies. These viruses now seem to be common in farmers' fields in San Ramón and Cañete. To our knowledge, this is the first report of SPLCV in Peru. References: (1) P. Lotrakul et al.
