Information About the Virus

Name: Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Bigenminivirus
Acronym:  TYLCV
Synonyms:  tomato leaf curl virus.
Genus: 

Strains:      
Transmission: Transmitted by a vector; an insect; Bemisia tabaci; Aleyrodidae. Transmitted in a persistent manner. Virus retained when the vector moults; does not multiply in the vector; not transmitted congenitally to the progeny of the vector; does not require a helper virus for vector transmission; transmitted by mechanical inoculation (poorly); transmitted by grafting; not transmitted by contact between plants.
 

Geographical Distribution: Spreads in Cyprus, India, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Nigeria, Senegal, Sudan, Thailand, Tunisia, and Turkey (Verma et al., 1975; Lana and Wilson, 1976).
Diagnostically Susceptible Species and Symptoms: 
Lycopersicon esculentum - severe systemic leaf chlorosis and malformation.
Datura stramonium - interveinal leaf chlorosis.
Nicotiana glutinosa, N. benthamiana - systemic vein clearing, then downward curling of the leaf and its margins.
Phaseolus vulgaris - interveinal chlorosis, downward curling of the leaves.
