Abstract

A survey was conducted in Bosnia and Herzegovina in 2023, to investigate the presence of several important viruses affecting cereals, particularly those associated to cereal yellow dwarf viruses (CYDVs) and barley yellow dwarf viruses (BYDVs). Sixty leaf samples were collected, including 47 from maize plants (Zea mays L.) and 13 from barley plants (Hordeum vulgare L.), from across four grain-producing regions (Odzak, Sarajevo, Gornji Vakuf and Ilidza). Assessments for both groups of viruses, using ELISA and RT-PCR assays, detected CYDV in one maize sample (hybrid BC 418B) out of the 60 samples assessed. Nucleotide sequence analysis of the RT-PCR amplicon (2476 bp) of Bosnian isolate from maize hybrid BC418B (GenBank no. PV476203) showed that the isolate had 99.1% similarity with the CYDV RPS Mexican isolate (RPV-Mex-1; GenBank no. NC002198). This is the first report of the presence of CYDV-RPS in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
