Abstract
Grapevine virus G (GVG) and grapevine virus H (GVH) (genus Vitivirus) are recently discovered viruses. Analysis of 38 samples from Sardinian grapevine cultivars for the presence of GVG and GVH was carried out using RT-PCR. All samples were also tested for grapevine Pinot gris virus (GPGV) using RT-PCR, and for grapevine leafroll virus -1, -2 and -3, grapevine virus A (GVA) and B (GVB), arabis mosaic virus (ArMV), grapevine fanleaf virus (GFLV) and grapevine fleck virus (GFkV) using multiplex RT-PCR. GVG was confirmed in four vines, and GVH was detected in only one sample. In phylogenetic analyses of the coat protein (CP) region, the Sardinian GVG isolates clustered separately from isolates from Croatia and New Zealand. The Sardinian GVH isolate clustered with most sequences from other countries, but with greater affinity to isolates from California (USA) for the CP region, whereas it clustered with isolates from Croatia in the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) region. In addition to GVG and GVH, many samples were coinfected with GVA, viruses from the leafroll complex, and GPGV. This is the first record of GVG and GVH occurring in Italy.
期刊介绍:
Phytopathologia Mediterranea is an international journal edited by the Mediterranean Phytopathological Union. The journal’s mission is the promotion of plant health for Mediterranean crops, climate and regions, safe food production, and the transfer of new knowledge on plant diseases and their sustainable management.
The journal deals with all areas of plant pathology, including etiology, epidemiology, disease control, biochemical and physiological aspects, and utilization of molecular technologies. All types of plant pathogens are covered, including fungi, oomycetes, nematodes, protozoa, bacteria, phytoplasmas, viruses, and viroids. The journal also gives a special attention to research on mycotoxins, biological and integrated management of plant diseases, and the use of natural substances in disease and weed control. The journal focuses on pathology of Mediterranean crops grown throughout the world.
The Editorial Board of Phytopathologia Mediterranea has recently been reorganised, under two Editors-in-Chief and with an increased number of editors.
