摘要

In April 2025 in Kamphaeng Phet Province, we collected mung bean (Vigna radiata) plants with yellow mosaic symptoms like those caused by mungbean yellow mosaic India virus (MYMIV), a bipartite begomovirus transmitted by whiteflies (Bemisia tabaci) that had not yet been reported in Thailand. Molecular phylogenetic analysis of a partial DNA-A region showed that our Thai isolates formed a distinct clade with Indian and Indonesian MYMIV isolates. A whitefly transmission assay confirmed infectivity; characteristic symptoms developed on plants within 20 to 25 days. This is the first report of MYMIV-like virus in Thailand and highlights its potential threat.
