Tomato Ringspot Virus
Tomato ringspot virus (ToRSV) is a plant pathogenic virus of the family ''Secoviridae''. It affects species of cucumber, tobacco, tomato, cowpea, among others. It causes ringspots in tobacco plants and raspberries, yellow bud mosaic in peaches, yellow vein in grapes, and stunted growth in ''gladiolus'' and '' Narcissus''. Its range is in the temperate regions of North America, especially where its vector, ''Xiphinema americanum'' is present. Along with the adult and larval stages of this nematode, the virus is also spread by seed. This type of infection is more common in strawberries and soybeans than any other susceptible plant.

Secoviridae
''Secoviridae'' is a family of viruses in the order ''Picornavirales''. Plants serve as natural hosts. There are 8 genera and 86 species in this family, one of which is unassigned to a genus. The family was created in 2009 with the grouping of families ''Sequiviridae'', now dissolved, and ''Comoviridae'', now subfamily ''Comovirinae'', along with the then unassigned genera ''Cheravirus'', ''Sadwavirus'', and ''Torradovirus''. Taxonomy The family includes the following genera (-''virinae'' denotes subfamily and -''virus'' denotes genus): * ''Comovirinae ''Comovirinae'' is a subfamily of viruses in the order ''Picornavirales'', in the family ''Secoviridae''; its genera were formerly classified in the family ''Comoviridae''.

Raymond Grogan
Raymond Gerald Grogan (July 22, 1920 – July 30, 2016) was an American phytopathologist (plant disease researcher). During his career at the University of California, Davis, he primarily researched diseases that affected crops like lettuce, tomatoes, and beans. He was the editor of the ''Annual Review of Phytopathology'' from 1978–1984. Early life and education Raymond Gerald Grogan was born on July 22, 1920, in Emma, Georgia, in Dawson County to parents Lula and Raymond Grady Grogan. Both of his parents were educators, and he eventually attended the school where his father was principal. He had a younger sister, Jane. He attended the University of North Georgia where he earned his bachelor's; he then attended the University of Georgia for his master's degree. Grogan served in the Navy during World War II and was enlisted for three years. After his military service, he enrolled at the University of Wisconsin–Madison and completed a PhD under advisor John Charles Walker, re ...

Gladiolus
''Gladiolus'' (from Latin, the diminutive of ''gladius'', a sword) is a genus of perennial cormous flowering plants in the iris family (Iridaceae). It is sometimes called the 'sword lily', but is usually called by its generic name (plural ''gladioli''). The genus occurs in Asia, Mediterranean Europe, South Africa, and tropical Africa. The center of diversity is in the Cape Floristic Region.Goldblatt, P. &, J.C. Manning. ''Gladiolus'' in Southern Africa : Systematics, Biology, and Evolution. Fernwood Press, Cape Town; 1998. The genera ''Acidanthera'', ''Anomalesia'', ''Homoglossum'', and ''Oenostachys'', formerly considered distinct, are now included in ''Gladiolus''. Description Gladioli grow from round, symmetrical corms (similar to crocuses) that are enveloped in several layers of brownish, fibrous tunics. Their stems are generally unbranched, producing 1 to 9 narrow, sword-shaped, longitudinal grooved leaves, enclosed in a sheath. The lowest leaf is shortened to a catap ...

Narcissus (plant)
''Narcissus'' is a genus of predominantly spring flowering perennial plant, perennial plants of the amaryllis family, Amaryllidaceae. Various common names including daffodil,The word "daffodil" is also applied to related genera such as ''Sternbergia'', ''Ismene (plant), Ismene'' and ''Fritillaria meleagris''. It has been suggested that the word "Daffodil" be restricted to the wild species of the British Isles, ''N. pseudonarcissus''. narcissus, and jonquil are used to describe all or some members of the genus. ''Narcissus'' has conspicuous flowers with six petal-like tepals surmounted by a cup- or trumpet-shaped Corona (plant structure), corona. The flowers are generally white and yellow (also orange or pink in garden varieties), with either uniform or contrasting coloured tepals and corona. ''Narcissus'' were well known in ancient civilisation, both medicinally and botanically, but formally described by Carl Linnaeus, Linnaeus in his ''Species Plantarum'' (1753). The genus ...

Vector (epidemiology)
In epidemiology, a disease vector is any living agent that carries and transmits an infectious pathogen to another living organism; agents regarded as vectors are organisms, such as parasites or microbes. The first major discovery of a disease vector came from Ronald Ross in 1897, who discovered the malaria pathogen when he dissected a mosquito. Arthropods Arthropods form a major group of pathogen vectors with mosquitoes, flies, sand flies, lice, fleas, ticks, and mites transmitting a huge number of pathogens. Many such vectors are haematophagous, which feed on blood at some or all stages of their lives. When the insects feed on blood, the pathogen enters the blood stream of the host. This can happen in different ways. The ''Anopheles'' mosquito, a vector for malaria, filariasis, and various arthropod-borne-viruses (arboviruses), inserts its delicate mouthpart under the skin and feeds on its host's blood. The parasites the mosquito carries are usually located in its salivary gla ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Xiphinema Americanum
''Xiphinema americanum'', the American dagger nematode, is a species of plant pathogenic nematodes. It is one of many species that belongs to the genus ''Xiphinema''. It was first described by N. A. Cobb in 1913, who found it on both sides of the United States on the roots of grass, corn, and citrus trees.Cobb, N. A. (1913). "New nematode genera found inhabiting freshwater and non-brackish soils.". ;;J. Wash. Acad. Sci.;; 3: 432–435.4 Not only is ''Xiphinema americanum'' known to vector plant viruses, but also ''X. americanum'' has been referred to as "the most destructive plant parasitic nematode in America", and one of the four major nematode pests in the Southeastern United States.Christie, J. R. (1952). "Some new nematodes of critical importance to Florida growers.". ''Proc. Soil Sci. Soc. Fla.'' 30: 39Thorne, G. (1961). ''Principles of Nematology''. McGraw-Hill.

Viral Diseases Of Potato
Viral diseases of potato are a group of diseases caused by different types of viruses that affect potato crops worldwide and, although they do not affect human or animal health since they are viruses that only infect vegetables, they are a source of great economic losses annually. About 28 viruses have been reported infecting potato crops. However, potato virus X ( PVX), potato virus Y ( PVY), and potato leafroll virus ( PLRV) are the most important viruses worldwide. Some others are of economic importance only in some regions. Such is the case of potato virus M (PVM) in some Asian and European countries. An additional problem is the co-infection of two or more viruses on the same plants. In fact, the joint occurrence of PVX and PVY, or either or both of them with PLRV or Potato virus A ( PVA), produces much more severe symptoms than separate infection of each. The magnitude of economic losses associated with this synergistic effect depends on the types of viruses that are intera ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Nepoviruses
''Nepovirus'' is a genus of viruses in the order ''Picornavirales'', in the family ''Secoviridae'', in the subfamily ''Comovirinae''. Plants serve as natural hosts.
