Survey conducted for disease incidence of Tobacco streak virus (TSV) during Kharif 2014-15 and 2015-16 in Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka revealed disease incidence of 9-28 per cent in groundnut, 6-18 per cent in sunflower and 5-22 per cent in cucumber. In Andhra Pradesh during Kharif 2014-15 and 2015-16, the incidence of TSV in groundnut ranged from 9.8 (Bathalapalli) to 28.2 (Obuldevarayacheruvu) per cent and 9.2 (Kothacheruvu) to 23.2 (Gorantla) per cent respectively; similarly on sunflower the incidence ranged from 6.4 (Aluru) to 18.7 (Bethamcherla) per cent and 5.2 (Adoni) to 14.2 (Bethamcherla) per cent respectively. In Karnataka the incidence of TSV during Kharif 2014-15 and 2015-16 ranged from 10.9 (Herapanahalli) to 22.8 (Tumkur) per cent and 5.2 (Pavagada) to 14.2 (Tumkur) per cent respectively. The collected samples were tested by Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) using TSV specific antisera and through electron microscopy and positive samples were maintained on cowpea for further studies.
