Abstract
Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) is one of the most devastating plant viruses, with more than 1,200 species of host plants. The host range and economic importance of peanut stunt virus (PSV) are mostly limited to legumes, despite the similar taxonomy and genome structure with CMV. Since no data are available on the background of the limited host range of PSV, RNA 3 recombinant and reassortant viruses were generated (C12P3, P12C3, C12CP3, C12PC3, C12PΔC3) to study their infection phenotype on a common host (Nicotiana benthamiana) and on a selective host (Capsicum annuum cv. Brody). The PSV movement protein (MP) was not able to function with the coat protein (CP) of CMV unless the C-terminal 42 amino acids were deleted from the PSV MP. As a result of the inoculation experiments, MP was considered the protein influencing symptom phenotypes on N. benthamiana and responsible for the host range difference on the pepper. Since plasmodesmata (PD) localization of viral MPs is essential for cell-to-cell movement, subcellular localization of GFP-tagged MPs (CMV-MP-eGFP, PSV-MP-eGFP) was observed. In the case of CMV-MP-eGFP, clear colocalization with PD was detected in both hosts, but PSV-MP-eGFP was not tightly connected to the PD in N. benthamiana and barely localized to the PD in C. annuum epidermal cells. Measuring Pearson correlation coefficients (PCCs) also supported the visual observation.

Abstract
KEY MESSAGE PSV infection changed the abundance of host plant's transcripts and proteins associated with various cellular compartments, including ribosomes, chloroplasts, mitochondria, the nucleus and cytosol, affecting photosynthesis, translation, transcription, and splicing. Virus infection is a process resulting in numerous molecular, cellular, and physiological changes, a wide range of which can be analyzed due to development of many high-throughput techniques. Plant RNA viruses are known to replicate in the cytoplasm; however, the roles of chloroplasts and other cellular structures in the viral replication cycle and in plant antiviral defense have been recently emphasized. Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyze the small RNAs, transcripts, proteins, and phosphoproteins affected during peanut stunt virus strain P (PSV-P)-Nicotiana benthamiana interactions with or without satellite RNA (satRNA) in the context of their cellular localization or functional connections with particular cellular compartments to elucidate the compartments most affected during pathogenesis at the early stages of infection. Moreover, the processes associated with particular cell compartments were determined. The 'omic' results were subjected to comparative data analyses. Transcriptomic and small RNA (sRNA)-seq data were obtained to provide new insights into PSV-P-satRNA-plant interactions, whereas previously obtained proteomic and phosphoproteomic data were used to broaden the analysis to terms associated with cellular compartments affected by virus infection. Based on the collected results, infection with PSV-P contributed to changes in the abundance of transcripts and proteins associated with various cellular compartments, including ribosomes, chloroplasts, mitochondria, the nucleus and the cytosol, and the most affected processes were photosynthesis, translation, transcription, and mRNA splicing. Furthermore, sRNA-seq and phosphoproteomic analyses indicated that kinase regulation resulted in decreases in phosphorylation levels. The kinases were associated with the membrane, cytoplasm, and nucleus components.

Abstract
The interaction between viruses with the nucleolus is already a well-defined field of study in plant virology. This interaction is not restricted to those viruses that replicate in the nucleus, in fact, RNA viruses that replicate exclusively in the cytoplasm express proteins that localize in the nucleolus. Some positive single stranded RNA viruses from animals and plants have been reported to interact with the main nucleolar protein, Fibrillarin. Among nucleolar proteins, Fibrillarin is an essential protein that has been conserved in sequence and function throughout evolution. Fibrillarin is a methyltransferase protein with more than 100 methylation sites in the pre-ribosomal RNA, involved in multiple cellular processes, including initiation of transcription, oncogenesis, and apoptosis, among others. Recently, it was found that AtFib2 shows a ribonuclease activity. In plant viruses, Fibrillarin is involved in long-distance movement and cell-to-cell movement, being two highly different processes. The mechanism that Fibrillarin performs is still unknown. However, and despite belonging to very different viral families, the majority comply with the following. (1) They are positive single stranded RNA viruses; (2) encode different types of viral proteins that partially localize in the nucleolus; (3) interacts with Fibrillarin exporting it to the cytoplasm; (4) the viral protein-Fibrillarin interaction forms an RNP complex with the viral RNA and; (5) Fibrillarin depletion affects the infective cycle of the virus. Here we review the relationship of those plant viruses with Fibrillarin interaction, with special focus on the molecular processes of the virus to sequester Fibrillarin to complete its infective cycle.

Abstract
Apple latent spherical virus (ALSV) is a latent virus with wide host range of plant species. In the present study, we prepared ALSV vectors expressing RNA silencing suppressors (RSSs) from eight plant viruses: P19 of carnation Italian ring spot virus (tombusvirus), 2b of peanut stunt virus (cucumovirus), NSs of tomato spotted wilt virus (tospovirus), HC-Pro of bean yellow mosaic virus (potyvirus), γb of barley stripe mosaic virus (hordeivirus), P15 of peanut clump virus (pecluvirus), P1 of rice yellow mottle virus (sobemovirus), or P21 of beet yellows virus (closterovirus). These vectors were inoculated to Nicotiana benthamiana to investigate the effects of RSSs on the virulence and accumulation of ALSV. Among the vectors, ALSV expressing NSs (ALSV-NSs) developed severe mosaic symptoms in newly developed leaves followed by plant death. Infection of ALSV-γb induced characteristic concentric ringspot symptoms on leaves, and plants infected with ALSV-HC-Pro showed mosaic and dwarf symptoms. Infection of the other five ALSV vectors did not show symptoms. ELISA and immunoblot assay indicated that virus titer increased in leaves infected with ALSV-NSs, γb, HC-Pro, or P19. RT-qPCR indicated that the amount of ALSV in plants infected with ALSV-NSs was increased by approximately 45 times compared with that of wtALSV without expression of any RSS. When ALSV-P19, NSs, or HC-Pro was inoculated to Cucumis sativus plants, none of these ALSV vectors induced symptoms, but accumulation of ALSV in plants infected with ALSV-NSs was increased, suggesting that functions of RSSs on virulence and accumulation of ALSV depend on host species.

Abstract
Signaling in host plants is an integral part of a successful infection by pathogenic RNA viruses. Therefore, identifying early signaling events in host plants that play an important role in establishing the infection process will help our understanding of the disease process. In this context, phosphorylation constitutes one of the most important post-translational protein modifications, regulating many cellular signaling processes. In this study, we aimed to identify the processes affected by infection with Peanut stunt virus (PSV) and its satellite RNA (satRNA) in Nicotiana benthamiana at the early stage of pathogenesis. To achieve this, we performed proteome and phosphoproteome analyses on plants treated with PSV and its satRNA. The analysis of the number of differentially phosphorylated proteins showed strong down-regulation in phosphorylation in virus-treated plants (without satRNA). Moreover, proteome analysis revealed more down-regulated proteins in PSV and satRNA-treated plants, which indicated a complex dependence between proteins and their modifications. Apart from changes in photosynthesis and carbon metabolism, which are usually observed in virus-infected plants, alterations in proteins involved in RNA synthesis, transport, and turnover were observed. As a whole, this is the first community (phospho)proteome resource upon infection of N. benthamiana with a cucumovirus and its satRNA and this resource constitutes a valuable data set for future studies.

Abstract
Peanut stunt virus (PSV) is a widespread disease infecting legumes. The PSV strains are classified into four subgroups and some are defined by the association of satellite RNAs (satRNAs). In the case of PSV, the presence of satRNAs alters the symptoms of disease in infected plants. In this study, we elucidated the plant response to PSV-G strain, which occurs in natural conditions without satRNA. However, it was found that it might easily acquire satRNA, which exacerbated pathogenesis in Nicotiana benthamiana. To explain the mechanisms underlying PSV infection and symptoms exacerbation caused by satRNA, we carried out transcriptome profiling of N. benthamiana challenged by PSV-G and satRNA using species-specific microarrays. Co-infection of plants with PSV-G + satRNA increased the number of identified differentially expressed genes (DEGs) compared with the number identified in PSV-G-infected plants. In both treatments, the majority of up-regulated DEGs were engaged in translation, ribosome biogenesis, RNA metabolism, and response to stimuli, while the down-regulated DEGs were required for photosynthesis. The presence of satRNA in PSV-G-infected plants caused different trends in expression of DEGs associated with phosphorylation, ATP binding, and plasma membrane.

Abstract
Temperature is an important environmental factor influencing plant development in natural and diseased conditions. The growth rate of plants grown at C27°C is more rapid than for plants grown at 21°C. Thus, temperature affects the rate of pathogenesis progression in individual plants. We have analyzed the effect of temperature conditions (either 21°C or 27°C during the day) on the accumulation rate of the virus and satellite RNA (satRNA) in Nicotiana benthamiana plants infected by peanut stunt virus (PSV) with and without its satRNA, at four time points. In addition, we extracted proteins from PSV and PSV plus satRNA-infected plants harvested at 21 dpi, when disease symptoms began to appear on plants grown at 21°C and were well developed on those grown at 27°C, to assess the proteome profile in infected plants compared to mock-inoculated plants grown at these two temperatures, using 2D-gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry approaches. The accumulation rate of the viral RNAs and satRNA was more rapid at 27°C at the beginning of the infection and then rapidly decreased in PSV-infected plants. At 21 dpi, PSV and satRNA accumulation was higher at 21°C and had a tendency to increase further. In all studied plants grown at 27°C, we observed a significant drop in the identified proteins participating in photosynthesis and carbohydrate metabolism at the proteome level, in comparison to plants maintained at 21°C. On the other hand, the proteins involved in protein metabolic processes were all more abundant in plants grown at 27°C. This was especially evident when PSV-infected plants were analyzed, where increase in abundance of proteins involved in protein synthesis, degradation, and folding was revealed. In mock-inoculated and PSV-infected plants we found an increase in abundance of the majority of stress-related differently-regulated proteins and those associated with protein metabolism. In contrast, in PSV plus satRNA-infected plants the shift in the temperature barely increased the level of stress-related proteins.

Abstract
The multifunctional 2b protein of CMV has a role in the long distance and local movement of the virus, in symptom formation, in evasion of defense mediated by salicylic acid as well as in suppression of RNA silencing. The role of conserved amino acid sequence domains were analyzed previously in the protein function, but comprehensive analysis of this protein was not carried out until recently. We have analyzed all over the 2b protein by alanine scanning mutagenesis changing three consecutive amino acids (aa) to alanine. We have identified eight aa triplets as key determinants of the 2b protein function in virus infection. Four of them (KKQ/22-24/AAA, QNR/31-33/AAA, RER/34-36/AAA, SPS/40-42/AAA) overlap with previously determined regions indispensable in gene silencing suppressor function. We have identified two additional triplets necessary for the suppressor function of the 2b protein (LPF/55-57/AAA, NVE/10-12/AAA), and two other positions were required for cell-to-cell movement of the virus (MEL/1-3/AAA, RHV/70-72/AAA), which are not essential for suppressor activity.

Abstract
Peanut stunt virus (PSV) is a pathogen of legumes, vegetables, trees, and weeds occurring worldwide. The species is characterized by significant genetic variability. PSV strains are classified into four subgroups on the basis of their nucleotide sequence homology. Here, we are presenting two further, fully sequenced PSV strains-PSV-Ag and PSV-G, that could be considered as I subgroup representatives. However, their sequence homology with other typical I subgroups members, similarly as another strain-PSV-P, characterized by our group previously, is lower than 90%. This lead us to propose further subdivision of the I subgroup into IA, IB, and IC units, and to classify PSV-Ag and PSV-G strains to the last one. In this article, we are showing that identity level of PSV-Ag and PSV-G is very high and apart from the presence of satRNA in the first one, they differ only by a few nucleotides in their genomic RNAs. Nevertheless, symptoms they cause on host plants might differ significantly, just as the levels in infected plants. Effect of single amino acid changes between strains on the three-dimensional structure of viral proteins was analyzed. Differences occur mainly on the protein surfaces which can possibly affect protein-protein interaction in infected cells, which is discussed.

Abstract
Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) is an important virus because of its agricultural impact in the Mediterranean Basin and worldwide, and also as a model for understanding plant-virus interactions. This review focuses on those areas where most progress has been made over the past decade in our understanding of CMV. Clearly, a deep understanding of the role of the recently described CMV 2b gene in suppression of host RNA silencing and viral virulence is the most important discovery. These findings have had an impact well beyond the virus itself, as the 2b gene is an important tool in the studies of eukaryotic gene regulation. Protein 2b was shown to be involved in most of the steps of the virus cycle and to interfere with several basal host defenses. Progress has also been made concerning the mechanisms of virus replication and movement. However, only a few host proteins that interact with viral proteins have been identified, making this an area of research where major efforts are still needed. Another area where major advances have been made is CMV population genetics, where contrasting results were obtained. On the one hand, CMV was shown to be prone to recombination and to show high genetic diversity based on sequence data of different isolates. On the other hand, populations did not exhibit high genetic variability either within plants, or even in a field and the nearby wild plants. The situation was partially clarified with the finding that severe bottlenecks occur during both virus movement within a plant and transmission between plants. Finally, novel studies were undertaken to elucidate mechanisms leading to selection in virus population, according to the host or its environment, opening a new research area in plant-virus coevolution.

Abstract
D RNA 3Yalpha (D3Yalpha), a defective (D) RNA 3 derived from the Y strain of cucumber mosaic virus (CMV-Y), was further characterized in combination with different helper viruses in the genus Cucumovirus. Interestingly, Nicotiana benthamiana plants inoculated with CMV-D8 and D3Yalpha developed systemic symptoms which were different from those induced by CMV-D8. To elucidate the potential effects of D RNA 3 on virus infection on the basis of the original combination of CMV-Y and D3Yalpha, a point mutation was made in the coat protein gene, which determined symptoms, of either CMV-Y RNA 3 (Y3) or D3Yalpha. Symptoms induced on N. benthamiana and N. tabacum plants, and semi-quantitative RT-PCR revealed that the ratio of RNA 3 to D RNA 3 was associated with the differences of symptoms in the leaf tissues. Furthermore, analysis of in situ hybridization suggested that there were spatial effects between coat proteins of Y3 and D3Yalpha in the infected leaves.
