A recessive gene pepy-1 encoding Pelota confers resistance to begomovirus isolates of PepYLCIV and PepYLCAV in Capsicum annuum.

A begomovirus resistance gene pepy-1, which encodes the messenger RNA surveillance factor Pelota, was identified in pepper (C. annuum) through map-based cloning and functional characterization. Pepper yellow leaf curl disease caused by begomoviruses seriously affects pepper (Capsicum spp.

and Conferred Resistance are Insufficient Against Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Kanchanaburi Virus from Southeast Asia in Single or Mixed Infections of Tomato.

Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV), a monopartite begomovirus that originated in the eastern Mediterranean, has spread worldwide, becoming a serious threat to tomato ( L.) production. Southeast Asia is considered one of the hotspots for begomovirus diversity, and a wide variety of local begomovirus species distinct from TYLCV have been identified.

Pepper vein yellows virus 9: a novel polerovirus isolated from chili pepper in Indonesia.

In 2017, a leaf sample from a single chili pepper (Capsicum annuum) plant exhibiting yellowing was collected from Aceh province, Indonesia. Total RNA was extracted from this sample, and RNA-Seq analysis was conducted. Putative infecting viruses were detected by mapping the obtained reads to the full-length viral genome sequences available in the GenBank database (7457 sequences) and the de novo-assembled contigs.

Pepper yellow leaf curl Aceh virus: a novel bipartite begomovirus isolated from chili pepper, tomato, and tobacco plants in Indonesia.

During 2017, leaf samples of chili pepper (Capsicum annuum), tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), and tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) plants exhibiting yellowing and curling symptoms were collected from Aceh province, Indonesia. These samples were used to isolate and sequence viral genomic DNA. Six isolates with complete DNA-A and DNA-B sequences of begomovirus were obtained, all of which showed >99% sequence identity to the others.
