Article Synopsis
  • Fig mosaic is a serious viral disease in figs, and a recent study surveyed a fig germplasm collection in Crimea for viruses using advanced sequencing techniques.
  • The study identified fig umbra-like virus (FULV) in the Belle dure caprifig trees, while samples from other cultivars tested negative for this virus.
  • Five newly identified FULV isolates from Crimea showed close genetic similarity to a Hawaiian strain, marking the first discovery of this virus in figs outside Hawaii and highlighting its geographical and genetic diversity.

Fig mosaic disease is spread worldwide and is believed to have a viral etiology. Divergent isolates of grapevine badnavirus 1 (GBV1), named fGBV1, were discovered on , , , and in the fig germplasm collection of the Nikita Botanical Gardens, Russia, expanding the list of viruses infecting this crop. The complete genomes of five fGBV1 isolates from and trees were determined using high-throughput and Sanger sequencing.
