Abstract
Peanut Bud Necrosis Disease (PBND) is an important disease of peanut in south & southeast Asia. PBND caused by Peanut Bud Necrosis Virus (PBNV) and transmitted by Thrips Palmi Karny. PBNV is presumably a distinct member in the genus Tospovirus of the Bunyaviridae. In India, PBND was first recorded in the year 1949. The name "Bud Necrosis" was given in 1968 and the disease was considered to be distinct at that time because none of the groundnut viruses reported until 1968 were known to produce the bud necrosis symptom. PBND has been described in India since 1962 under at least seven different names, groundnut mosaic, groundnut rosette, bunchy top, chlorosis, ring mottle, bud blight and ring mosaic. Plants infected with PBNV has strongly reduced yield or do not yield at all. In India and Thailand have shown that PBNV occurs recurrently on groundnut in these countries, sites with more than 50% infection are not uncommon (Wongkaew, 1995). Besides Peanut, PBNV infects chili, potato, tomato, tobacco, mung bean and urd bean (Readdy et al., 1991, 1995). The International Crops Research Center for Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT) estimated the losses caused by the virus at more than 89 million US dollars per year (Anonymous, 1992)
