In this study, a Begomovirus associated with golden mosaic disease on vegetable cowpea was characterized. The genomic components were cloned and sequenced, showing high similarity to mungbean yellow mosaic India virus previously reported from India. Phylogenetic analysis suggested a common ancestral relationship between the study isolate and MYMIV isolates from India, Pakistan, and Nepal. Recombination analysis indicated that this cowpea isolate likely evolved through recombination of MYMIV sequences. Additionally, Agrobacterium-based dimeric clone constructs were found to be highly infectious on cowpea host, causing typical golden mosaic symptoms.
Begomovirus associated with golden mosaic disease on vegetable cowpea has been characterized through rolling circle amplification. The genomic components (DNA A and DNA B) were cloned and sequenced. Nucleotide sequence analysis of DNA A (MT671430) and DNA B (MT671431) component had > 98% identity toward the mungbean yellow mosaic India virus (MYMIV) reported previously from India on various legumes. In phylogenetic analysis, study isolate shared common ancestry with MYMIV isolates of India, Pakistan and Nepal infecting legumes. Based on the recombination analysis, this cowpea isolate appears to be evolved through recombination of MYMIV sequences both at DNA A (Major parent: AF481855; Minor parent: AF416742) and DNA B (Major parent: AF416741; Minor parent: MN698281) level. Furthermore, Agrobacterium-based dimeric clone constructs were found highly infectious on cowpea host upon co-inoculation of DNA-A and DNA-B components by producing typical golden mosaic symptoms 42 days post-inoculation. Upon inoculation of these agro-infectious clones, vegetable cowpea germplasm lines were categorized as resistant, moderately resistant and susceptible to golden mosaic disease.
