Description Mosaic or marble or katte disease caused by
Cardamom mosaic virus (CdMV) is an important production constraint in all cardamom growing regions of the world. In the present study, 84 cardamom plantations in 44
locations of Karnataka and Kerala were surveyed. The incidence of the disease ranged from 0 to 85%. The incidence
was highest in Madikeri (Karnataka) while no incidence was recorded in Peermade (Kerala). In general,incidence and severity of the disease was higher in cardamom plantations of Karnataka. A procedure for total RNA
isolation from cardamom and detection of CdMV through reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR)using primers targeting the conserved region of coat protein was standardized and subsequently validated by testing more than 50 field cardamom samples originating from
Karnataka and Kerala states. The method can be used for indexing the planting material and identifying resistant lines/cultivars before either they are further multiplied in
large scale or incorporated in breeding.
