Severe yellow mosaic disease was observed in three ornamental species of Jatropha: J. integerrima, J. podagrica and J. multifida grown in gardens at Lucknow, India, during a survey in 2013. The causal pathogen was successfully transmitted from diseased to healthy plants of these species by whitefly (Bemisia tabaci). The infection of begomovirus was initially detected in naturally infected plant samples by PCR using begomovirus universal primers. The begomovirus was characterized having a monopartite genome based on sequence analyses of the cloned â¼2.9kb DNA-A genome amplified by rolling circle amplification using Phi-29 DNA polymerase. The genome contained 2844 nucleotides that could be translated into seven potential open reading frames. The nucleotide sequences of DNA-A genome of the begomovirus isolates: JI (KC513823), JP (KF652078) and JM (KF652077) shared 94-95% identities together and 93-95% identities with an uncharacterized begomovirus isolated from J. curcas (the only sequences available in GenBank database as GU451249 and EU798996 under the name jatropha leaf curl virus). These shared highest identity of 61% and highly distant phylogenetic relationships with other begomoviruses reported worldwide. Based on 61% sequence identities (much less than 89%, the species demarcation criteria for a new begomovirus) the isolates under study were identified as members of a new Begomovirus species for which the name was proposed as "Jatropha mosaic Lucknow virus (JMLV)". The recombination analysis also suggested that JMLV was not a recombinant species, hence considered as unidentified Begomovirus species. Koch's postulates were also established by agroinfiltration assay of agroinfectious clone of JMLV. Characterization of JMLV associated with yellow mosaic disease of J. integerrima, J. podagrica and J. multifida is being reported for the first time.
