ABSTRACT

A new Soybean mosaic virus (SMV) strain was isolated in Korea and designated as G7H. Its virulence on eight differentials and 42 Korean soybean cultivars was compared with existing SMV strains. G7H caused the same symptoms as G7 did on the eight differential cultivars. However, it caused different symptoms on the G7-immune Korean soybean cultivars; G7H caused necrosis in Suwon 97 (Hwangkeumkong) and Suwon 181 (Daewonkong), and a mosaic symptom in Miryang 41 (Duyoukong), while G7 caused only local lesions on those varieties. The nucleotide sequence of the cylindrical inclusion region of G7H was determined and compared with other SMV strains. G7H shared 96.3 and 91.3% nucleotide similarities with G2 and G7, respectively; whereas G7 shared 95.6% nucleotide similarity with G5H.
