First Report of Tomato spotted wilt virus in Habanero and Tabasco Peppers in Florida

In spring 2000, symptoms similar to thrips-vectored spotted wilt disease caused by Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) were observed on habanero (Capsicum chinense) and tabasco (Capsicum frutescens) peppers in north Florida. Habanero peppers were from commercial fields grown for specialty markets and t...

520 |a In spring 2000, symptoms similar to thrips-vectored spotted wilt disease caused by Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) were observed on habanero (Capsicum chinense) and tabasco (Capsicum frutescens) peppers in north Florida. Habanero peppers were from commercial fields grown for specialty markets and tabasco peppers were from research plots. Symptoms observed were leaf necrosis, fruit drop, necrotic stem lesions, and stunting. Fruit symptoms included chlorotic and necrotic spotting and distinct ring pattern and distortion. The incidence of symptomatic habanero peppers was 7 to 8% in one of the three production fields visited, and a lower incidence in two other fields (all in Jackson County). In tabasco pepper, TSWV was detected in spring and fall 1999, and spring 2000 seasons in 10 to 15% of the plants (Gadsden County). Adjacent tomato fields contained scattered plants exhibiting symptoms of TSWV. Diagnosis of TSWV from symptomatic stems, leaves, and fruit of habanero and tabasco peppers was confirmed by a double antibody sandwich enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using a commercially available kit (Agdia Inc., Elkhart, IN). ELISA values ranged from 1.57 to 1.95 for habanero pepper and 0.80 to 0.95 for tabasco pepper. The mean ELISA value of the negative controls was 0.001. To further verify TSWV infection, immunocapture reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (IC-RT-PCR) was performed (1). The primer pair 5'-ATGTCTAAGGTTAAGCTC-3' and 5'-TTAAGCAAGTTCTGTGAG-3' represented the first and last 18 bases of the coding region of the nucleocapsid gene of TSWV, respectively, and produces approximately 800 bp PCR product (1). IC-RT-PCR gave a single DNA band of expected size in both habanero and tabasco samples, while no amplification was found in an uninfected pepper sample. This is the first report of TSWV on habanero and tabasco peppers in Florida. TSWV continues to be an economically important disease constraint to the production of tomato, pepper (C. annuum), peanut, and tobacco in the southeastern United States (observations from Georgia and Florida). Meanwhile, the known host range is expanding to include new species of cultivated vegetables. References: (1) R. K. Jain et al.. Plant Dis. 82:900, 1998
