The apple mosaic virus is the agent for the apple mosaic disease.  The apple mosaic virus is the most widespread apple virus.  An apple tree infected with the ApMV will have pale to bright cream spots on the leaves.  The distribution of the infected leaves may be depicted throughout the tree leaves or just a single tree limb.  The  ApMV infects U.S apple trees with the most infected being "Golden Delicious" and "Jonathan" apple trees.    The virus is spread through  through root grafting.  The severity of apple loss Depends on the spread of the plant virus.    The apple mosaic virus is an important virus to study, since an infected apple tree results in decrease in crops.

Current Research

Firstly, the research performed by multiplex RT-PCR assays for detection of four apple virus. The apple chlorotic leaf spot virus, apple stem pitting virus, apple mosaic virus, and apple stem grooving virus were all studied by RT-PCR assays. The RT-PCR assay of two identical multiplex were used for exchange of virus specific primers. The specific coamplification of plant mRNA was an internal control to ensure reliability of results. The most commonly used techniques for the four distinct diseases were ELISA tests and woody indicators. The ELISA tests often fail because of low virus titer; while the woody indicators are time consuming and expensive. The use of RT-PCR assay for detection of the four common apple virus is a fast, reliable, and inexpensive technique. This technique may replace the commonly used ELISA or woody indictor technique used for the four common apple pathogens. (7)

The second research was the characterization of the complete nucleotide sequence of apple mosaic virus RNA 1 and RNA 2. Since the isolation of ApMV has been difficult, the goal of the research was to sequence the ApMV entire genome. The ApMV was isolated from infected apple trees, Malus domestica. The virus was propagated, purified, and centrifuged for RNA purification. The ApMV purified RNA was used as a template for synthesized cDNA. Through a series of procedures the nucleotide sequence of ApMV RNA 1 and ApMV RNA 2 was determined. The characterization of the ApMV RNA 1 and ApMV RNA 2 resulted in a relationship to alfalfa mosaic virus. The sequencing of the entire genome will allow for detection and further studies of the pathogen. (1)

The third research was the complete nucleotide sequence of Apple Mosaic Virus RNA 4. The nucleotide sequencing of ApMV RNA 4 was obtained by cloning cDNA’s and direct sequencing of the 5’ terminus RNA. The ApMV was sequenced directly by reverse transcriptase. The analysis of the obtained ApMV RNA 4 sequence revealed similarities to the RNA 4 of alfalfa mosaic virus and tobacco streak mosaic virus. The features of the ApMV RNA 4 observed are characteristics of the ilarviruses and developed on the idea of the ‘ genome activation’ being dependent on secondary and tertiary structures. (9)
