Yellow vein mosaic disease (YVMD) caused by whitefly-transmitted begomoviruses is an economically significant viral
disease of okra. In this study, a survey of begomoviruses associated with YVMD was carried out in eight states and
two union territories of India. A total of 92 full-length DNA-A components were sequenced and characterized.
Sequence comparisons and population structure analysis revealed the existence of four begomovirus species. Two novel
species were detected with several recombinationally derived genome fragments that probably originated from begomoviruses
known to infect malvaceous and non-malvaceous hosts. Among the four species, Bhendi yellow vein Maharastra
virus (BYVMaV) and Bhendi yellow vein Madurai virus (BYVMV) were found to be predominant in okra, with
BYVMV having a pan-India distribution. There was evidence for a high degree of genetic variability and subpopulation
structure within these four species. Neutrality tests suggested the occurrence of purifying selection acting upon these
populations. The results of the current study have uncovered the diversity and genetic structure of okra-infecting
begomoviruses in India and generated potentially useful information for developing management strategies for YVMD.
