Abstract: | During the summer seasons of 1999 and 2000, a total of 3110 soyabean (Glycine max) leaf samples were randomly collected from soyabean fields in the Ardebil, Goletan, Khuzestan, Lorestan and Mazandaran provinces of Iran. Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) was detected in wilt samples by DAS-ELISA using TSWV-specific polyclonal antibodies (As-0526 and As-0580). Mechanical inoculation of 26 plant species and cultivars with positive leaf samples produced a range of symptoms in different species: (i) necrotic lesions; (ii) systemic lesions followed by necrosis; and (iii) chlorosis, stunting and bud necrosis. ELISA indicate that the overall incidence of TSWV on soyabean in the 5 provinces was 5.4%. This is claimed to be the first report of the occurrence of TWV on soyabean in Iran. |
