Hi, everyone! Attached is my presentation! I had to split up in two parts because the actual size did not allow me to upload that. ToLCV - 1.pptx (245.82 KB) ToLCV - 2.pptx (1015.49 KB)

Thanks so much for sharing your presentation Bea and was really great... and I have some questions that we were not able to answer in class: 1) is there any particular variety of tomato that is more susceptible than other? cherry for example? 2) why the classification has been an issue throw these years? 3) Could you please talk a little bit more about the new technology that has been used for the development of resistant varieties the RNA that you mentioned in class..

Hi Beatriz, Thanks for the above information. I wanted to know when and where the disease was first reported and characterized? Can you please tell little bit about phylogeny of this virus, the closest members in the group and hosts? Thanks.

Thanks so much Bea for the info, yes all your answers where great... I just have one more questions related to question 1) if there is some resistance in cherry and roma, is some of that resistance use to develop more resistant varieties?

Thanks for the information.
Please, I have some questions, when it comes to transmission, is there any specific amount of viral charge that the whitefly has to carry in order to be infectious in the host or that disease can be transmitted with independence of the number of viral particles?
Also you mentioned that the alternative host weed does not show any symptom when it is infected, but do you know if there is any affectation or alteration in terms of molecular genetic features?
Thanks.

Is there any information on innate immunity or any research being done to develop new tomato lines which are immune to the Tomato leaf curl virus?

Is there any information on innate immunity or any research being done to develop new tomato lines which are immune to the Tomato leaf curl virus? Ravendra i have found this article about development of tomato breeding lines resistant and tolerant to Tomato leaf curl virus. In each generations they selected resistance (no symptoms and undetectable viral DNA) and tolerance (no symptoms but with detectable viral DNA) tomato lines. Further more those plants were selected after massive and repeated inoculation with white flies. They were able to produce stable resistance line that dosent support accumulation even with inoculation of infected whiteflies (BC1F4 line). Hope i answered your question.
