Zusammenfassung: | Eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) plants with severe leaf mosaic and mottling were found in a kitchen garden near cotton fields in Pakistan. Rolling Circle Amplification products from six of the naturally infected eggplant plants, subjected to PCR, successfully amplified expected products of 2.8 and 1.4 kb using begomovirus and betasatellite‐specific primers, respectively. Based on 99% nucleotide sequence identity, the virus was identified as a variant of Cotton leaf curl Burewala virus (CLCuBuV) (GenBank Accession No. HG428709). Likewise, the sequenced betasatellite with a maximum of 97% nucleotide sequence identity was recognized as a new variant of Cotton leaf curl Multan betasatellite (CLCuMuBᴹᵘˡ) (GenBank Accession No. HG428708). The symptomatic induction of Cotton leaf curl disease in CLCuBuV susceptible cotton genotype CIM‐496 by back‐indexing further confirmed the presence of CLCuBuV in eggplant. This is the first report of CLCuBuV and its associate betasatellite in naturally infected plants of eggplant. |
