    Improvement of RT‐PCR Based Detection of Two Closteroviruses Associated with Little Cherry Disease in Sweet Cherries

    by M. Rybak, A. Kountrias, A. Eppler, W. Jelkmann, C. Heinze, G. Adam

    The increasing availability of nucleotide sequence data from plant pathogenic fruit tree viruses led recently to the development of nucleic‐acid‐based detection methods as a routine tool for diagnosis. We present a simplification and modification of the previously described test procedure for the two closteroviruses Little cherry virus 1 and 2 (LChV‐1, LChV‐2). For LChV‐1, a single tube reaction reduced unspecific amplification that led to false positive results. For the detection of LChV‐2, a primer set was developed for the local isolates of the area ‘Altes Land’ in the northern part of Germany. To determine the optimal sampling conditions for a reliable detection of both viruses different types of tissue (bark, bud, leaves) were tested in monthly intervals.

    A Survey of Tospoviruses in Bulgaria

    by D. Hristova, O. Karadjova, M. Yankulova, C. Heinze, G. Adam

    A survey of tospoviruses present in Bulgaria was conducted during three vegetation periods. A total of 258 different virus isolates were obtained from tobacco, tomato, weeds and ornamentals in the open fields and from glasshouses. Virus isolates were identified by inoculation to test plants and serology as Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV). No indications were obtained that other Tospovirus species were present in Bulgaria. In addition the transmission ability and efficiency of several Bulgarian populations of Thrips tabaci (Lind.) and Frankliniella occidentalis (Perg.) was determined. The experimental results indicated that Bulgarian TSWV isolates are transmitted with high efficiency by F. occidentalis and that only arrhenotokous and not thelytokouse populations of T. tabaci could transmit TSWV.
