Cherry rusty mottle-associated virus (CRMaV), which belongs the genus Robigovirus of the family Betaflexiviridae, is strongly associated with cherry rusty mottle disease of sweet cherry, Prunus avium. Here, we report on the successful development of an Agrobacterium-based inoculation system for a cloned CRMaV cDNA construct. Agro-inoculation of virus-free cherry rootstock 'Krymsk6' [P. cerasus x (P. cerasus x P. maackii)] resulted in the development of chlorotic yellow mottle symptoms on systemic leaves beginning at 50 days post inoculation. The presence of CRMaV in 'Krymsk6' agro-inoculated plants was confirmed by RT-PCR and ELISA. Subsequently, CRMaV from agro-inoculated 'Krymsk6' was graft-transmissible onto virus-free sweet cherry rootstock P. avium 'Mazzard' as evidenced by the production of typical cherry rusty mottle symptoms beginning at 35 days post grafting, and further confirmed by western blotting and RT-PCR. These results showed conclusively that CRMaV is the causal agent of cherry rusty mottle disease in sweet cherry. The reverse genetic system presented in this study can be used as a tool to investigate the molecular biology of CRMaV and also a template for infectious clone development for other viruses in the genus Robigovirus.

These infectious agents belong to different genera and are heterogeneous in their biology.

Two sets of primers were used to increase the effectiveness of virus detection. The RT-PCR results indicated that the most frequently detected virus in all of the tested samples was CVA (60%), followed by CGRMV (13%), CNRMV (12%), LChV-1 (11%), and LChV-2 (4%).

One hundred trees, including almond (), apricot (), nectarine (), peach (), plum (), purple leaf plum () and sweet cherry (), were selected from growing regions Australia-wide and tested for the presence of 34 viruses and three viroids using species-specific reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) or polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests. In addition, the samples were tested using some virus family or genus-based RT-PCR tests. The following viruses were detected: (ACLSV) (13/100), (ApMV) (1/100), (CGRMV) (4/100), (CNRMV) (2/100), (CVA) (14/100), (LChV2) (3/100), (PBNSPaV) (4/100), (PDV) (3/100), (PNRSV) (52/100), (HSVd) (9/100) and (PLMVd) (6/100).

The incidence of Cherry necrotic rusty mottle virus (CNRMV) and Cherry green ring mottle virus (CGRMV) have recently been occurred in Korea, posing a problem for sweet cherry cultivation. Since infected trees have symptomless leaves or ring-like spots on the pericarp, it is difficult to identify a viral infection. In this study, the incidence of CNRMV and CGRMV in sweet cherry in Gyeongbuk province was surveyed using a newly developed duplex reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method that can detect both viruses in a single reaction.
