Biological, Cytopathological and Molecular Characterisation of Pepper Ringspot Virus From Solanum violifolium in Brazil Vinicius Henrique Bello, Tatsuya Nagata, Pedro Luis Ramos‐Gonzáles, Elliot Watanabe Kitajima Plant Pathology, 2026 In 2022, Solanum violifolium plants showing yellow rings and line pattern symptoms were observed in the municipality of Piracicaba, São Paulo State, Brazil. Plate‐trapped antigen‐ELISA and reverse transcription‐PCR followed by Sanger sequencing confirmed the occurrence of pepper ringspot virus (PepRVS, Tobravirus capsici ) in all field‐collected plants. The isolate of PepRVS (PepRSV_BR) obtained from S. violifolium in this study was mechanically transmitted to S. violifolium , Chenopodium amaranticolor , Chenopodium quinoa , Gomphrena globosa , Nicotiana tabacum , but not bell pepper ( Capsicum annuum ), tomato ( Solanum lycopersicum ), eggplant ( Solanum melongena ) and scarlet eggplant ( Solanum aethiopicum ) plants. Transmission electron microscopy analysis of leaf extracts and ultrathin sections of S. violifolium , C. amaranticolor , C. quinoa , G. globosa , N. tabacum cvs. TNN, Turkish and Samsun revealed a consistent presence of rod‐shaped particles approximately 200 and 50 nm long, with a diameter of approximately 25 nm. High‐throughput sequencing analysis of one field‐sample yielded two contig sequences of 6813 and 2446 nucleotides corresponding to PepRSV RNA 1 and 2, respectively. Genome analysis also revealed that RNA 2 of PepRSV_BR contains a truncated open reading frame (ORF) 2c and a putative ORF 2d. Future studies involving the production of an infectious clone may help to understand the roles of the truncated ORF 2c and the putative ORF 2d in aspects of plant–vector–virus interaction.

Oliveira, Eric R. G. R. Aguiar BMC Plant Biology, 2025 BACKGROUND: Theobroma cacao seeds are the source of chocolate and other valuable products. Pathogens can damage cocoa beans, reducing yield and quality. This study examined viruses linked to chlorosis and leaf deformation in cocoa plants in Bahia, Brazil, using an integrative approach. RESULTS: Macroscopic and microscopic analysis of symptomatic T. cacao leaves revealed chlorosis and histological alterations consistent with viral infection, including cell and nuclear hypertrophy. Deep sequencing of small RNA (sRNA) from these tissues identified virus-derived sRNA (vsiRNAs) profile, which suggests that viral transcripts activate the antiviral RNA interference pathways. The vsiRNAs were used to assemble two viral sequences: one related to geminivirids and the other resembling a strain of the recently described Cacao swollen shoot Ghana S virus, a putative member of the family Caulimoviridae commonly found as an Endogenous Viral Element (EVE) in symptomless plants. The geminivirid was tentatively designated Citlodavirus theobromae, while the badnavirus isolate was named Brazilian cacao swollen shoot Ghana S virus Ilhéus. Mass spectrometry detected multiple viral peptides from coding genes from both viral genomes, supporting the potential occurrence of viral translation and replication. Notably, symptoms were observed only in association with the geminivirids. Although viral DNA from both viruses was present in symptomatic and asymptomatic leaves of the same plant, geminivirid RNA was exclusively detected in symptomatic tissues, suggesting a correlation between the citlodavirustranscript accumulation and symptom expression. CONCLUSION: Our findings highlight the emergence of a new viral geminivirid threat that could affect cocoa production in South America.
Historical and Contemporary Evidence Confirms a Higrevirus as the Causal Agent of Citrus Zonate Chlorosis in Brazil Laura R. Pereira, Mariane C. Rodrigues, Camila Chabi-Jesus, Pedro L. Ramos-González, Cristiane J. Barbosa, Magno G. Santos, Helcio Costa, Luana C. Maro, Aline D. Tassi, Elliot W. Kitajima, Ricardo Harakava, Juliana Freitas-Astúa Viruses, 2025 Citrus leprosis (CL) and citrus zonate chlorosis (ZC) were first described in Brazil in the 1930s. Both diseases, which caused non-systemic lesions primarily characterized by chlorotic and/or necrotic spots, were associated with the presence of Brevipalpus mites. While CL has since been well characterized as being caused by viruses of the genera Cilevirus (family Kitaviridae) and Dichorhavirus (family Rhabdoviridae) and transmitted by several species of Brevipalpus mites, the causal agent of ZC remained unknown. In this study, we analyzed Citrus spp. samples exhibiting typical ZC symptoms using high-throughput sequencing (HTS) to determine the etiology of ZC. We examined historical herbarium specimens collected between 1933 and 1965 alongside fresh samples collected from 2016 to 2022. Our results identified the higrevirus hibiscus green spot virus 2 (HGSV2, Higrevirus waimanalo) as the causal agent of ZC. In addition, we report for the first time the presence of a higrevirus in continental America, expand the diversity of known kitaviruses infecting citrus in Brazil, and demonstrate the transmission of an higrevirus by Brevipalpus yothersi and B. papayensis.
First Report of Alternanthera Mosaic Virus Infecting Pereskia aculeata in Brazil Marcelo Eiras, Alexandre Levi Rodrigues Chaves, Fernanda Pádua Del Corona, Jandson José do Vale Guimarães, Vinicius Henrique Bello, Elliot Watanabe Kitajima, Pedro Luis Ramos-González Plant Disease, 2025 Pereskia aculeata Miller is a climbing cactus, native to native to tropical areas of the Americas, whose leaves are used in cooking and folk medicine. Known as "Barbados gooseberry", "leaf cactus" and "ora-pro-nóbis" (OPN), it is considered an unconventional food plant, valued for its high protein and mineral content, offering sustainable healthy food options. In 2024, three OPN plants displaying ringspots, mosaic and leaf distortion were collected in a vegetable garden at the Instituto Biológico, São Paulo, Brazil. Elongated and flexuous particles were observed in negatively stained extracts from OPN symptomatic leaves under a transmission electron microscope (TEM). Ultrathin sections of these tissues revealed the presence of aggregates of elongated particles, presumably viral, and unknown crystalline structures in epidermal and mesophyll cells. RNA extracts were isolated using TRIzol® (ThermoFisher Scientific) and analyzed by high-throughput sequencing (HiSeq 2500 Technology, 2x150 nt paired-end reads, Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA). Bioinformatic analyses of the generated library (15.9 million row reads) revealed the complete genome (6,652 nucleotides, GenBank accession PQ650655) of an isolate of Alternanthera mosaic virus (AltMV, Potexvirus alternantherae) with a mean coverage of 14.000x. This Brazilian isolate, named AltMV_BR1, shared 94.7% nucleotide sequence identity with the genome of AltMV isolates detected in a phlox (Phlox stolonifera) plant identified in the state of Pennsylvania, USA (RefSeq NC_007731). For validation, RNA extracts from the original samples were tested by RT-PCR using primers (Potex5: 5'-CAYCARCARGCMAARTGAYGA-3'/ Potex1RC: 5'-TCAGTRTTDGCRTCRAARGT-3') designed to anneal in the RdRp gene of potexviruses (Van der Vlugt and Berendsen 2002). Amplified fragments (expected size of 735 bp) were sequenced (GenBank accession PQ811939) and the presence of the AltMV was confirmed. The host range of this isolate was evaluated by mechanical inoculation on several cactus species, including OPN, as well as indicator plant species previously described as hosts of AltMV. OPN plants showed mosaic and leaf distortion, whereas Pereskia grandifolia plants expressed local necrotic rings and systemic chlorotic rings. Dragon fruit (Hylocereus undatus) and orchid cactus (Epiphyllum sp.) plants were infected but remained asymptomatic. Necrotic local lesions were observed on Gomphrena globosa. Local chlorotic lesions were detected on Chenopodium amaranticolor and C. quinoa, which developed into systemic infections on plants of both species. Amaranthus viridis and Portulaca oleracea plants also developed infections, resulting in systemic chlorosis and leaf crinkling, respectively. The presence of the virus in these hosts, as well as in the original host, was confirmed with a specific polyclonal antiserum (kindly provided by Dr. J.E. Thomas, Queensland Horticulture Institute, Australia) against AltMV by PTA-ELISA and TEM through detection of elongated particles typical of those produced by potexviruses in extracts and tissue sections. AltMV has a wide host range and its occurrence has been reported in several countries, including Brazil. However, in cactaceous plants, AltMV has only been reported to infect orchids in the United States. To date, this is the first report of AltMV in OPN. Surveys of its occurrence in other regions will be carried out to understand the status of this virus in OPN in Brazil.

Zindović Plant Disease, 2025 This collaborative work by over 180 researchers from 40+ countries addresses the challenges posed by “phantom agents”—putative pathogenic agents named in literature without supporting data on their existence. Those agents remain on regulatory lists, creating barriers in trade and plant certification. Historically identified based solely on symptoms, these agents lack isolates or sequence data, making reliable detection or risk assessment impossible. After reviewing over 120 such agents across 10 key plant genera, we recommend their removal from regulatory lists and call for revised standards aligned with modern diagnostics. This effort seeks to streamline germplasm exchange, benefiting global agriculture by removing the constraints imposed by phantoms.
First Report of Rattail Cactus Necrosis-Associated Virus (Tobamovirus muricaudae) in Symptomless Opuntia leucotricha in Brazil Jandson José do Vale Guimarães, Fernanda de Pádua Del Corona, Vinicius Henrique Bello, Pedro Luis Ramos‐González, Harri Lorenzi, Elliot Watanabe Kitajima Journal of Phytopathology, 2025 In 2024, a tobamovirus was found in a symptomless prickly pear (Opuntia leucotricha) plant in Brazil. Transmission electron microscopy examinations revealed tobamovirus‐like particles ca. 300 nm long in negatively stained cladode's extracts from an asymptomatic O. leucotricha plant. High‐throughput sequencing resulted in a 6374 nucleotide contig that shares 98.68% nucleotide sequence identity with rattail cactus necrosis‐associated virus (RCNaV, Tobamovirus muricaudae), first detected in Aporocactus flagelliform, in South Korea. The near‐complete genome of the RCNaV_BR1 isolate has the canonical genomic organisation of viruses in the genus Tobamovirus. The viral infection in the cactus was validated by RT‐PCR using RCNaV_BR1‐specific primers followed by Sanger sequencing. The RCNaV_BR1 could be mechanically transmitted to the experimental hosts Chenopodium amaranticolor, C. quinoa and Datura stramonium, and by grafting to some cactus plants (dragon fruit‐Selenicereus spp., Opuntia brasiliensis, Epiphyllum sp.), which remained symptomless. This is the first report of RCNaV infecting any cactaceae in Brazil.
Molecular and biological characterization of tobacco mild green mosaic virus from Petunia (Petunia × hybrida) in Brazil Vinicius Henrique Bello, Lorenna Leal Pires, Gleice Rafaela Renunza Pires, Gustavo Verruma Bernardi, Pedro Luis Ramos-González, Renato Barbosa Salaroli, Elliot Watanabe Kitajima Scientia Agricola, 2025 An isolate of the tobamovirus tobacco mild green mosaic virus (TMGMV), Tobamovirus mititessellati, was found naturally infecting petunia (Petunia × hybrida) cv. Pinstripe, causing reduced leaf size, mottling, and color breaking of flowers, in an experimental field at Piracicaba, São Paulo state, Brazil. TMGMV was identified by virion morphology, cytopathology, transmission experiments, and molecular assays. The entire nucleotide sequence of this petunia isolate of TMGMV (TMGMV-Pet) was obtained and demonstrated, in essence, to be similar to previously analyzed isolates. One hundred and twenty plant species were assayed by mechanical transmission, and 35 of them from nine families, both previously reported and unreported species, were shown to be experimentally susceptible to TMGMV-Pet. On the other hand, certain species, among 85 unsusceptible hosts for TMGMV-Pet, known to be susceptible to TMGMV, failed to be infected. Cytopathological studies on naturally and experimentally infected host plants revealed that virions of TMGMV-Pet produced para-crystalline aggregates, but not angular arrays, which are considered characteristic of TMGMV. As previously described, thin sections revealed the presence of pseudo-virions in the stroma of chloroplasts in TMGMV-Pet-infected tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum), and, additionally, in other hosts such as N. clevelandii, N. megalosyphon, and petunia indicating that this process is not restricted to tobacco.
Eriophyid Mites Vector the Kitavirus Blueberry Necrotic Ring Blotch Virus: Insights into the Viral Transmission and Its Infection on Blueberry Plants Aline Daniele Tassi, Pedro Luis Ramos-González, Carlos H. W. Flechtmann, James W. Amrine, Ali Sarkhosh, Juliana Freitas-Astua, Elliot Watanabe Kitajima, João Paulo Rodrigues Marques, Philip F. Harmon, Daniel Carrillo Phytopathology, 2025 Blunerviruses, family Kitaviridae, infect and cause diseases of important crop plants, including tomato, tea, and blueberry. Despite their economic importance, the epidemiology of blunerviruses and the mechanisms of plant-to-plant transmission remain largely unknown. In 2006, the blunervirus blueberry necrotic ring blotch virus (BNRBV, Blunervirus vaccinii) was detected in Florida, United States, causing disease on blueberry plants and tentatively linked to an eriophyid mite vector. To gain insights into plant–virus interaction and plant-to-plant transmission of BNRBV, in this study, we investigated sap transmission and the potential vector of blueberry-infesting eriophyid and Brevipalpus mites collected in Florida during 2022 and 2023. Although kitaviruses are vectored by several species of Brevipalpus mites, our experiments revealed a distinct vector for BNRBV. Both mite types acquired the virus, but only viruliferous eriophyids of the species Calacarus corymbosi, described for the first time in this work, transmitted the virus. Assays for BNRBV mechanical transmission were unsuccessful. This study marks the first demonstration of a characterized pathogen vectored by a mite in the genus Calacarus within kitavirus. Upon transmission by the eriophyid mite, BNRBV caused characteristic local necrotic ring blotch symptoms in blueberry leaves, and the virus was detected in symptomatic tissues and also in roots, but only at 6 months after inoculation, suggesting restricted or inefficient long-distance movement of the virus within the plant. This paper introduces a model for investigating the transmission of blunerviruses, a rapidly growing group of plant viruses.
