Host-Parasite Interaction During Development of Major Seed-Transmitted Viral Diseases

Seed-Borne Diseases of Agricultural Crops: Detection, Diagnosis & Management

Abstract

Being the most important mode of propagation of plants, disease-free seed is a basic requirement of progressive agriculture. However, many plant pathogens such as bacteria, fungi, virus, virus-like agents, nematodes, etc. are transmitted through seeds to the next generation. Seed transmission enables the earliest possible infection, which is a determining factor of disease severity. Plant viruses are the most important plant pathogens causing up to 96% yield losses. Although, seed transmissibility is presently known to occur for around 18% of plant viruses only, it is estimated that one-third of the plant viruses will eventually prove to be seed transmitted in at least one host. Nevertheless, the most likely mechanism of plant viruses’ persistence between crop seasons is through the seeds, and even a seed transmission rate as low as 0.001 has the potential to initiate an epidemic. Therefore, study of the plant-pathogen interactions in seed-transmitted viruses is of utmost importance to help formulate preventive measures against such pathogens. Although the specific molecular mechanism of transmission of plant viruses through seeds is not completely understood till date, broadly, the mode of infection of the embryos (the future seeds) is known to be either direct (via mother plant) or indirect (via infected pollen); these mechanisms, however, may not be mutually exclusive. The modes of viral movement from infected maternal and paternal tissues to the embryo, the genetics of host-virus interaction, etc. are needed to be worked out for designing successful management strategies against seed-transmitted viruses.
