Viral diseases of legumes in the south of the Russian Far East

Aim. The aim of the current work is to analyse the epiphytotic situation in the south of the Russian Far East in connection with viral diseases of legumes (Fabaceae Lindl., 1836). Discussion contains a description of 18 viruses that infect legumes in this region: Alfalfa mosaic (Martellivirales: Bromoviridae, Alfamovirus); Vicia unijuga mosaic (Martellivirales: Bromoviridae, Bromovirus); Cucumber mosaic (Martellivirales: Bromoviridae, Cucumovirus); Vicia unijuga ringspot virus (Martellivirales: Closteroviridae, Unidentified); Trifolium hybridum yellow mosaic virus, Bean common mosaic virus, Bean yellow mosaic virus, Trifolium repens mottle virus, Mountain clover mosaic virus, Red clover mosaic virus, Soybean chlorotic deformation virus, Soybean chlorotic mottle virus, Soybean mosaic virus, Soybean weak mosaic virus (Patatavirales: Genus, Potyvirus); Tobacco ringspot virus (Picornavirales: Secoviridae, Nepovirus); Pea enation mosaic virus (Tolivirales: Luteoviridae, Enornovirus); White clover mosaic virus (Tymovirales: Alphaflexivirid a e, Potexvirus); Vicia pseudorobus necrotic mosaic virus (Tymovirales: Betaflexiviridae, Carlavirus). The description of the established natural reservoirs and the main vectors of these viruses is given. Conclusion. A list of measures are recommended for the prevention of viral diseases of legumes and a thesis is provided on the need to continue the planned monitoring of the phytovirological situation in the Russian Far East.
