Abstract

Rice stripe virus causes severe damage to rice in Korea, Japan and China. RSV is a type member of the tenuivirus group and transmitted by the small brown planthopper, Laodeiphax striatellus, in a persistant manner. Until now, occurrence of RSV is limited in of southern part of Korea. But recently occurrence of RSV is increasing and spreading in central part of Korea including Chungcheong and Kyonggi province. So we analyzed recent occurrence trend of RSV which is increased and cloned and sequenced coat protein gene for isolating of RSV strain. Infected rice of each species(Ilpumbyeo, Sindongjinbyeo, Keumobyeo-2, Dongjinbyeo, Jongnambyeo, Samcheonbyeo, etc.)is collected, we extracted total RNA from infected leaves and detected RSV viral RNA by reverse transcription(RT)-PCR using specific primer of coat protein gene. The result of RT-PCR, we observed specific band. We already cloned cDNA from the band, is analyzing sequence variety and homology of each species.
