The synthesis of virus protein by the host tissues almost certainly induce
small and transitory changes in their free amino acids pool (Selman, 1941).
These changes result from the alteration in host metabolism or the
multiplication of virus itself (Ford and Tu, 1969). However, most of the
earlier work on the metabolism of virosed legumes has been mostly inferred as
due to virus infection and little emphasis has been given to physiological
alterations produced due to interaction of Rhizobium and virus. Therefore, in
the present investigation, it was aimed to study the influence of common bean
mosaic virus (CBMV) and Rhizobium on the free amino acid contents of mungbean
cv. 'Pusa Baisakhi'. [AS]

Thailand. TROPICAL AGRICULTURE RESEARCH CENTER, TECHNICAL BULLETIN,
no.21:184-188. [En] [En Abst] (A:PS)
A seed-borne, aphid-transmitted virus was found infecting mungbean (Vigna
radiata) in various regions of Thailand. The pathogen was seed-borne in
mungbean and bean (Phaseolus vulgaris). The plants showing systemic symptoms by
mechanical inoculation of the virus were limited to the Leguminosae.
Infectivity of crude sap of leaves was lost by heating at 50-60 C for 10
minutes, by diluting to I.OE-3 - 1.OE-4, and y aging at room temperature for
4-8 days. The virus consisted of flexuous filaments about 750 nm in length and
was transmitted by aphids in a non-persistent manner. In double-diffusion tests
in agar gel plates containing 0.5% lithium 3,5-diiodosalicylate, the virus
reacted strongly with antisera to bean common mosaic virus (BCMV) isolated from
bean, blackeye cowpea mosaic virus, and azuki bean mosaic virus. Based on host
range studies, symptoms, seed and vector transmission, serology, and particle
morphology, the virus was identified as a strain of BCMV. [AS]

A serious disease of blackgram was observed at the Indian Agricultural
Research Institute, New Delhi. The disease is characterized by a mosaic pattern
of broad patches of light and dark green areas and blistering of the leaf
blade, and induces growth retardation of the affected plants and shedding of
most of their flowers. The virus resembles the bean common mosaic virus in
physical properties and host range. [THH]
