Abstract:

Leafy vegetables can satisfy people′s daily requirements to minerals, vitamins,and dietary fiber and therefore are essential ingredients for meals. Plant viruses severely threaten the production of leafy vegetables,causing yield and quality losses,even to crop failure. In this work,we reviewed the transmission,host range,genome organization and symptoms of 22 viruses which infect spinach,celery,lettuce,cauliflower,and leeks,made suggestions for antiviral genes selection and control of virus diseases, and provided references for the study and control of viruses in leafy vegetables.

Key words: Leafy vegetables, Virus disease, Virus species, Transmission, Host range, Genome organization
