| dc.description.abstract | The multicapsid nucleopolyhedroviruses (NPVs) of Spodoptera exigua (SeMNPV), Spodoptera frugiperda (SfMNPV), and Spodoptera littoralis (SpliNPV) are genetically similar (78% similarity) but differ in their degree of host specificity. Infection by each of the three NPVs in these three Spodoptera host species was determined by oral inoculation of larvae with occlusion bodies (OBs) or intrahaemocoelic injection with occlusion derived virions (ODVs). RT-PCR analysis of total RNA from inoculated insects, targeted at immediate early (ie-0), early (egt, DNA polymerase), late (chitinase) and very late genes (polyhedrin), indicated that each of the NPVs initiated an infection in all three host species tested. SpliMNPV produced a fatal NPV disease in both heterologous hosts, S. frugiperda and S. exigua, by oral inoculation or injection. SfMNPV was lethal to heterologous hosts, S. exigua and S. littoralis, but infected larvae did not melt and disintegrate, and progeny OBs were not observed. SeMNPV was able to replicate in heterologous hosts and all genes required for replication were present in the genome, as the virus primary infection cycle was observed. However, gene expression was significantly lower in heterologous hosts. SeMNPV pathogenesis in S. frugiperda and S. littoralis was blocked at the haemocoel transmission stage and very nearly cleared. SeMNPV mixtures with SpliMNPV or SfMNPV did not extend the host range of SeMNPV; in all cases, only the homologous virus was observed to proliferate. It is concluded that entry and the primary virus infection cycle are not the only, or the major determinants, for SeMNPV infection of heterologous Spodoptera species. | en |
