Detection of Rupestris stem pitting associated virus in seedlings of virus - infected maternal grapevine plants.
Rupestris stem pitting associated virus (RSPaV) is a species in the genus Foveavirus (Martelli and Jelkman, 1998) and the family Flexiviridae. The virion has a positive sense, single stranded, polyadenylated RNA genome of 8.7kb in size and a coat protein of 28kD (Martelli and Jelkman, 1998). The virus has been reported to be present in pollen (Rowhani et aI., 2000) and seeds (Stewart and Nassuth, 2001), however, it has not been proved to be seed-transmitted. In our investigation reported here we have proven that RSPaV transmits by seed from RSPaV-infected mother plants to their siblings.
