Tomato plants showing symptoms of yellow mottle and leaf distortion, first observed in eastern Cuba in 2007, have been shown to be associated with the presence of a novel bipartite begomovirus (genus Begomovirus, family Geminiviridae) species, Tomato yellow leaf distortion virus (ToYLDV), for which the DNA-A has already been sequenced. Here, we present the completion of ToYLDV genome characterization by cloning and sequencing the DNA-B component. In addition, we constructed infectious clones that were used to inoculate tomato, soybean, Nicotiana tabacum and N. benthamiana plants by a biolistic procedure. Cloned ToYLDV reproduced the symptoms observed in tomato in the field, thus confirming that this begomovirus is the causal agent of the disease present in Cuba. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
