Summary:
The primary purpose of the IPM PIPE is to serve as a warning network for tracking diseases outbreaks and their spread in legume crops (alfalfa, chickpea, common bean, lentil, lima bean, peas, soybean). It monitors recognized and emergent insect pests and diseases in sentinel legume plots and commercial fields. Arizona will focus primarily on plant pathogens of fungal and viral nature and insect vectors associated with viral outbreaks in sentinel plots. Arizona also will continue with the development of a DNA hybridization platform for curtovirus detection and identification. The Arizona coordinator (J.K. Brown) will: (1) provide diagnostic materials, presentations, and training in use of the on-line project website to insure that sentinel plot cooperators and producers are familiar with diseases and pests; (2) maintain linkages and share primary pest and pathogen information with the AZ-NPDN (J.K. Brown, Coordinator); and (3) enter monitoring data into the Legume PIPE Web Site.
Objectives: The goal of the state-based components of the IPM PIPE is to provide useful and timely information for integrated pest management through a national network with information associated with IPM for pests including soybean rust (SBR), soybean aphid, and other legume pests and viral pathogens. Arizona will (1) focus primarily on plant pathogens of fungal and viral nature and insect vectors associated with viral outbreaks in bean and cowpea sentinel plots and other cultivated legumes that may serve as alternate hosts of virus-vector and other pathogens and pests; and (2) will continue ongoing work to develop a DNA hybridization platform for curtovirus detection and identification. The specific objectives are: 1. In-season sentinel plots: This project will monitor for Legume Viruses twice (late vegetative, early to mid pod-fill growth stages and for curtovirus samples, when symptoms develop) in 5 plots in two locations (upload and lowland) over the course of the growing season, expected to be 12 weeks in each of two seasons (Winter, Yuma- 2 plots; Summer, Sulfur Springs Valley and surrounding 3 plots). 2. In-season sentinel plots: This project will monitor weekly to biweekly for other diseases (e.g., bacterial such as common bacterial blight, fungal such as white mold) 5 plots over the course of the growing season, each expected to be 12 weeks. 3. Develop and optimize a DNA hybridization assay for curtovirus detection that can be piloted in other laboratories in the western states. |
