Detection and Identification of Badnavirus fici on Ficus communis in South Korea

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This study was conducted to investigate the status of Badnavirus fici infection in domestic fig trees, more than 80 samples were randomly collected from experimental fields and farm fields in major fig producing areas in Korea. Thereafter, the collected samples were used for polymerase chain reaction diagnosis and nucleotide sequence analysis. As a result, B. fici was identified from domestic fig trees. It was confirmed that all collected samples were infected with B. fici. The virus detection rate was found to be 100%. As a result of nucleotide sequence analysis of B. fici detected in domestic fig trees. The sequences showed very high nucleotide identity (up to 100%) with Badnavirus fici isolates reported from Iran and the USA. This paper is expected to be used as basic data for the production of fig tree virus disease-free seedlings, and this paper reports the detection and identification of report on B. fici discovered from fig trees in Korea.
