Rice tungro bacilliform virus

Family   : Caulimoviridae
Genus : Tungrovirus
Acronym : RTBV

Introduction

Rice tungro bacilliform virus is a pararetrovirus of the Tungrovirus genus that causes severe stunting and yellowing of infected plants. RTBV along with rice tungro spherical virus cause tugro disease of rice.

Major Diseases

Tungro disease.

Geographical Distribution

Eastern and southern rice growing regions.

Particle Morphology

Non enveloped bacilliform shaped particles of 110-400 x 30-55 nm.

Transmission Method

Leaf hopper- Nephotettix cincticeps, N. virescens, N. parvus, N. nigropictus semipersistently. Virus is lost in molting and do not multiply in vector body, requires helper virus RTSV for transmission. RTBV is acquired only in the presence of RTSV or, the vector should have fed earlier on RTSV infected plants. Not transmitted mechanically and through seed.

Detection

ELISA, LAMP, Real-time PCR and PCR.

Host Range and Symptomatology

Rice Yellow to orange discolouration of leaf margins, followed by the discoluration of the whole leasves, stunting and sterility, reduced number of ear bearing tillers and panicles, reduced filling of grains, grains with dark blotches and with less starch and less yield.
