        Bean common mosaic virus and related races are one of the most important bean viral diseases and are present in almost all bean growing regions. In order to investigate the effects of salicylic acid treatment on the reaction of sensitive bean variety (Akhtar) to common bean mosaic virus (BCMV), an experiment was conducted in the form of a completely randomized design with 4 replications in greenhouse conditions. The experimental treatments included concentrations of zero, 200, 400 and 800 micromolar salicylic acid. The desired treatments were performed three days before inoculation with the respective virus agent. ELISA test using BCMV antiserum showed 83.3% of samples were infected with this virus. The results showed that different levels of salicylic acid could reduce the severity of the disease compared to the control infected with the virus.The lowest severity of the disease was obtained in the treatment of salicylic acid with a concentration of 800 micromolar (15.5%). The amount of phenol in the leaves in the treatment of salicylic acid with a concentration of 800 micromolar showed the highest value (92%), which did not show a statistically significant difference with the infected control, and this trait can be an indicator of the induction of resistance with the improvement of phenol levels due to the use of salicylic acid. Salicylic acid was effective in improving the morphological parameters such as the wet weight of the aerial parts of the plant and the dry weight of the root, and in disease conditions it prevented further damage during the experimental period to such an extent that this amount in the treatment of salicylic acid with a concentration of 800 µM in the conditions of the disease did not show any significant difference with the healthy control.

        Lily (Lilium spp.) from Liliaceae familiy is considered as one of the most important ornamental plants with high economic value. Virus diseases are shown to be as main limiting factor in lily production. During a survey in 2015, a total of 76 symptomatic samples showing mosaic, deformation, chlorosis, reduced growth, necrosis and decline were collected from lily growing greenhouses in Thehran province. Samples were tested for Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) and Arabis mosaic virus (ArMV) using ELISA, biological and molecular methods. ELISA results showed that 45 and 3 samples were infected with CMV and ArMV, and 5 samples were co-infected with the both viruses. The virus infections were confirmed using biological inoculation tests. CMV and ArMV infection were also tested by RT-PCR method using specific primers which resulted to amplification of 1100 and 690 bp DNA fragments, respectively. CMV lily isolates were confirmed to belong to CMV subgroup I using specific primers in RT-PCR assay. Presence of Lily symptomless virus –LSV and Lily mottle virus-LMoV were tested by RT-PCR assay using specific primers which resulted in amplification of the expected 650 bp DNA product corresponding to CP gene region of LMoV, but there was not any DNA amplifications related to LSV. This is the first report on occurrence of ArMV, CMV and LMoV infections on lily in Iran. Detection of virus infection sources using the optimized methods in this study is a crucial practical approach for virus management in healthy lily bulb production in the country. Manuscript profile

        Background & Objectives: Bushehr province is one of the major out of season tomato growing centres in Iran. The present study aimed to identify the most important tomato viruses and to determine their frequency following observation of the massive damages in these farms. Materials & Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 250 tomato samples collected from fields in Bushehr province, which showed signs of leaf mosaic, vein clearing, mottling, and stunting. The samples were tested by DAS-ELISA using polyclonal antibodies against major known tomato viruses to identify the viruses. Results: The results showed that tomato fields were infected with Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV), Zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV), Eggplant mottled dwarf virus (EMDV), Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), Alfalfa mosaic virus (AMV), Potato virus X (PVX) and Tomato mosaic virus (ToMV) with a frequency of 94.5, 72, 65, 56.7, 27, 5.4 and 5%, respectively. No infections were observed with Squash mosaic virus (SMV), Potato virus Y (PVY), Watermelon mosaic virus (WMV) and Potato leaf roll virus (PLRV). Conclusion: The results of this study showed highly contamination (50-95%) of these fields to TYLCV, ZYMV, EMDV and CMV. Therefore, application of precautionary operations, especially at the level of purchasing the spores and tracking the sings of diseases and vector insects, looks necessary to control the distribution of these viruses.
