Abstract In the autumn of 2013, leaves of greenhouse-grown tomato plants showed symptoms of interveinal
chlorosis, and together with stunted, marginal curling and crumpling. As the disease progressed, leaves become
thick and crisp, similar to symptoms induced by Tomato chlorosis virus( ToCV) and Tomato yellow leaf curl
virus( TYLCV) were collected from greenhouse-grown tomato plants in Shouguang, Shandong Province. The
specific primer pairs of CP-F/CP-R specific to ToCV and TY1-R/TY1-F,TY2-R/TY2-F,TY3-R/TY3-F
specific to TYLCV were used to detect ToCV and TYLCV, respectively. 774 bp( GenBank accession number:
KC709510) and 2 781 bp( GenBank accession number: KJ546418) specific fragments were amplified from the
same symptomatic samples. Sequence analysis of the amplified sequence of KC709510 showed 99.6% nucleotide
sequence identity with ToCV-BJ( KC311375) isolates and the sequence of KJ546418 showed 99.6% nucleotide
sequence identity with TYLCV-SDWF-L7( KC999850) isolates registered in the GenBank.
