Abstract
First Report of Alfalfa Leaf Curl Virus Affecting Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) in Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, and Tunisia.
Highlights
The genus Capulavirus includes plant-infecting single-stranded DNA viruses with circular genomes that have been characterized in Africa, Europe, and Asia (Bernardo et al 2016; Susi et al 2017)
Initially isolated from France and Spain (Bernardo et al 2016), alfalfa leaf curl virus (ALCV) was recently reported from Argentina (Bejerman et al 2018)
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) results revealed that 86 samples (37 from Jordan, 7 from Lebanon, 22 from Syria, and 20 from Tunisia) generated expected 267-nt amplicons
