New record of mungbean yellow mosaic India virus in Desmodium laxiflorum and association of bhendi yellow vein mosaic betasatellite in Abelmoschus moschatus in Andhra Pradesh, India.

ABSTRACT: Mungbean yellow mosaic India virus (MYMIV) is one of the most serious commonly occurring yellow mosaic virus (YMV's) group in majority of the pulses especially black gram and green gram in southern India compared to previously reported mungbean yellow mosaic virus. In January 2020 Desmodium laxiflorum and Abelmoscus moschatus showing mosaic symptoms and vein yellowing were collected from Guntur and Prakasam districts respectively in Andhra Pradesh. PCR analysis using MYMIV and betasatellite specific primers gave desired expected amplification from the infected samples of A. moschatus (YMV-ABEL) whereas only MYMIV specific amplification was obtained in D. laxiflorum (YMV-DES). However, no PCR amplification was obtained in respective healthy leaf samples of both plants. Sequence analysis showed that the CP sequence of YMV-ABEL and YMV-DES showed a similarity of 99.19% with MYMIV (KP677496) and 99.75% with MYMIV (JN181003) respectively. The full-length betasatellite (1356 bp) showed highest identity of 90% with bhendi yellow vein mosaic betasatellite (BYVMB) (GU111977). Phylogenetic analysis clustered the test isolates with south Indian isolates of MYMIV whereas the betasatellite sequence clustered with various isolates of BYVMB, tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus betasatellite and okra leaf curl betasatellite reported from India and Pakistan. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of a MYMIV in D. laxiflorum and A. moschatus and MYMIV betasatellite complex in A. moschatus.
