CIFOR–ICRAF publishes over 750 publications every year on agroforestry, forests and climate change, landscape restoration, rights, forest policy and much more – in multiple languages.

CIFOR–ICRAF addresses local challenges and opportunities while providing solutions to global problems for forests, landscapes, people and the planet.

We deliver actionable evidence and solutions to transform how land is used and how food is produced: conserving and restoring ecosystems, responding to the global climate, malnutrition, biodiversity and desertification crises. In short, improving people’s lives.

Molecular detection of cacao swollen shoot badnavirus species by amplification with four PCR primer pairs, and evidence that Cacao swollen shoot Togo B virus-like isolates are highly prevalent in Côte d’Ivoire

Badnaviruses are plant pararetroviruses that infect economically important crops worldwide, and several badnaviral species have been reported causing significant economic losses in cacao plantations in West Africa. Based on the available full-length genome sequences of cacao swollen shoot disease (CSSD)-associated badnaviruses (n = 66), four primer pairs (CSSD1-CSSD4) were designed to amplify a fragment of the 5′ region of open reading frame (ORF) 3, which comprises the movement protein, by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Primers were evaluated for their ability to amplify a badnaviral fragment(s) from symptomatic and asymptomatic cacao leaf samples collected in Côte d’Ivoire during 2017–2019. The PCR products obtained by amplification with the CSSD1 primers showed high sequence variability and were phylogenetically related to one of three different badnaviral species, Cacao swollen shoot Togo B virus, Cacao swollen shoot CD virus, and Cacao swollen shoot CE virus, while the CSSD2 and CSSD4 amplicon sequences grouped exclusively with either cacao swollen shoot Togo B virus (CSSTBV) and Cacao swollen shoot Ghana M virus isolates, respectively. The majority of the isolates obtained here were most closely phylogenetically related to CSSTBV, with which they shared 81.0–98.0% nucleotide identity, making the CSSTBV-like isolates the predominant species associated with badnavirus-infected cacao trees tested in Côte d’Ivoire.
