Virology 2024; 593:110011. [PMID: 38367474 DOI: 10.1016/j.virol.2024.110011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2023] [Revised: 01/22/2024] [Accepted: 01/29/2024] [Indexed: 02/19/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is the 13th most important global crop grown throughout the tropical and subtropical regions of the world. One of the major constraints to groundnut production is viruses, which are also the most economically important and most abundant pathogens among cultivated legumes. Only a few studies have reported the characterization of RNA viruses in cultivated groundnuts in western Kenya, most of which deployed classical methods of detecting known viruses. METHODS We sampled twenty-one symptomatic and three asymptomatic groundnut leaf samples from farmers' fields in western Kenya. Total RNA was extracted from the samples followed by First-strand cDNA synthesis and sequencing on the Illumina HiSeq 2500 platform. After removing host and rRNA sequences, high-quality viral RNA sequences were de novo assembled and viral genomes annotated using the publicly available NCBI virus database. Multiple sequence alignment and phylogenetic analysis were done using MEGA X. RESULTS Bioinformatics analyses using as low as ∼3.5 million reads yielded complete and partial genomes for Cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV), Cowpea polerovirus 2 (CPPV2), Groundnut rosette assistor virus (GRAV), Groundnut rosette virus (GRV), Groundnut rosette virus satellite RNA (satRNA) and Peanut mottle virus (PeMoV) falling within the species demarcation criteria. This is the first report of CaMV and the second report of CPPV2 on groundnut hosts in the world. Confirmation of the detected viruses was further verified through phylogenetic analyses alongside reported publicly available highly similar viruses. PeMoV was the only seed-borne virus reported. CONCLUSION Our findings demonstrate the power of Next Generation Sequencing in the discovery and identification of novel viruses in groundnuts. The detection of the new viruses indicates the complexity of virus diseases in groundnuts and would require more focus in future studies to establish the effect of the viruses as sole or mixed infections on the crop. The detection of PeMoV with potential origin from Malawi indicates the importance of seed certification and cross-boundary seed health testing.

Abstract
The complete genome sequence of a novel virus found infecting Cnidium officinale, which we have named "cnidium polerovirus 1" (CnPV1), is 6,090 nucleotides in length, similar to those of other poleroviruses. Seven open reading frames (ORF0-5 and ORF3a) were predicted in this genome. CnPV1 shares 32.4%-38.9% full-length nucleotide sequence identity with other known polerovirus genome sequences. The putative P0, P1-2, P3-5, P3, and P4 proteins share 11.3%-19.5%, 37.1%-49.8%, 26.7%-39.5%, 40.8%-49.7%, and 40.8%-49.7% amino acid sequence identity, respectively, with homologous inferred protein sequences from known poleroviruses. Phylogenetic analysis of P1-2 and P3 sequences places CnPV1 with other members of the genus Polerovirus, indicating that it should be classified in a new distinct species.

Abstract
Over the last decade, viral metagenomic studies have resulted in the discovery of thousands of previously unknown viruses. These studies are likely to play a pivotal role in obtaining an accurate and robust understanding of how viruses affect the stability and productivity of ecosystems. Among the metagenomics-based approaches that have been developed since the beginning of the 21st century, shotgun metagenomics applied specifically to virion-associated nucleic acids (VANA) has been used to disentangle the diversity of the viral world. We summarize herein the results of 24 VANA-based studies, focusing on plant and insect samples conducted over the last decade (2010 to 2020). Collectively, viruses from 85 different families were reliably detected in these studies, including capsidless RNA viruses that replicate in fungi, oomycetes, and plants. Finally, strengths and weaknesses of the VANA approach are summarized and perspectives of applications in detection, epidemiological surveillance, environmental monitoring, and ecology of plant viruses are provided.

Abstract
A novel enamovirus was identified in common bean plants with disease symptoms. Its genome of 5,781 nucleotides (nt) contains five open reading frames. This virus and other members of the genus Enamovirus share 50.4-68.4% nucleotide sequence identity in the complete genome and 19.9-51.9% amino acid sequence identity in the P0 protein, 24.9-52.5% in P1, 33.4-62.9% in P1-P2, 30.6-81.1% in P3, and 32.3-74.2% in P3-P5. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the virus is most closely related to alfalfa enamovirus 1 and pea enation mosaic virus 1 in the genus Enamovirus of the family Solemoviridae. These results suggest that this virus, tentatively named "bean enamovirus 1", should be classified as a member of a new species in the genus Enamovirus.

Abstract
Chickpea chlorotic stunt virus (CpCSV, genus Polerovirus, family Solemoviridae), first reported in Ethiopia in 2006, causes an economically important yellowing and stunting disease in legume crops such as chickpea, faba bean, field pea, and lentil in most production areas of North Africa and Central and West Asia. Disease epidemics have been reported in Ethiopia, Syria, and Tunisia. The virus is transmitted persistently by aphids of the species Aphis craccivora and Acyrthosiphon pisum and naturally infects several legume and non-legume hosts. CpCSV exists as at least two geographic strain groups that differ in their genome sequence and serological and biological properties. In addition, a genetically divergent isolate proposed to be a member of a distinct polerovirus species has been reported from pea and faba bean in China. The ssRNA genome of the Ethiopian isolate has 5900 nucleotides, is encapsidated in isometric particles of ~ 28 nm diameter, and is suggested to have evolved by recombination of cucurbit aphid-borne yellows virus- and soybean dwarf virus-like parents. Moreover, a number of newly reported poleroviruses are suggested to have evolved by recombination between CpCSV and other parental poleroviruses. Identification of sources of resistance and further knowledge on disease epidemiology, including specific strains, vectors, and alternate hosts in different growing areas, are required for devising effective disease management strategies. Modern biotechnology tools such as next-generation sequencing, molecular markers, and agroinoculation-based resistance screening techniques can expedite future research and management efforts. This review addresses various aspects of CpCSV, including its properties, ecology, the disease it causes, management options, and future research perspectives.

Abstract
Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.) is a staple food that is widely cultivated in sub-Saharan Africa. In August 2018, a survey was conducted in the main producing regions of Burkina Faso, and leaf samples were analyzed using virion-associated nucleic acid (VANA)-based metagenomic approach and Illumina sequencing. A new virus, tentatively named "Pennisetum glaucum marafivirus" (PGMV), was detected, and its complete nucleotide sequence of 6364 nucleotides was determined. The sequence contains a large open reading frame (ORF) encoding a polyprotein of 224.2 kDa with five domains (methyltransferase, papain-like protease, helicase, RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, and coat proteins), typical of marafiviruses. Additionally, a characteristic conserved marafibox domain was detected in the genome. The nucleotide sequence of the complete PGMV genome shares 68.5% identity with that of sorghum bicolor marafivirus, and its coat protein shares 58.5% identity with that of oat blue dwarf virus. Phylogenetic analysis confirmed that the pearl millet virus is unambiguously grouped with members of the genus Marafivirus in the family Tymoviridae. This is the first report on the occurrence of a marafivirus in pearl millet.

Abstract
Legumes, one of the most important sources of human food and animal feed, are known to be susceptible to a plethora of plant viruses. Many of these viruses cause diseases which severely impact legume production worldwide. The causal agents of some important virus-like diseases remain unknown. In recent years, high-throughput sequencing technologies have enabled us to identify many new viruses in various crops, including legumes. This review aims to present an updated list of legume-infecting viruses. Until 2020, a total of 168 plant viruses belonging to 39 genera and 16 families, officially recognized by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV), were reported to naturally infect common bean, cowpea, chickpea, faba-bean, groundnut, lentil, peas, alfalfa, clovers, and/or annual medics. Several novel legume viruses are still pending approval by ICTV. The epidemiology of many of the legume viruses are of specific interest due to their seed-transmission and their dynamic spread by insect-vectors. In this review, major aspects of legume virus epidemiology and integrated control approaches are also summarized.

Abstract
Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is the primary source of protein and nutrients in the majority of households in sub-Saharan Africa. However, pests and viral diseases are key drivers in the reduction of bean production. To date, the majority of viruses reported in beans have been RNA viruses. In this study, we carried out a viral metagenomic analysis on virus symptomatic bean plants. Our virus detection pipeline identified three viral fragments of the double-stranded DNA virus Pelargonium vein banding virus (PVBV) (family, Caulimoviridae, genus Badnavirus). This is the first report of the dsDNA virus and specifically PVBV in legumes to our knowledge. In addition two previously reported +ssRNA viruses the bean common mosaic necrosis virus (BCMNVA) (Potyviridae) and aphid lethal paralysis virus (ALPV) (Dicistroviridae) were identified. Bayesian phylogenetic analysis of the Badnavirus (PVBV) using amino acid sequences of the RT/RNA-dependent DNA polymerase region showed the Kenyan sequence (SRF019_MK014483) was closely matched with two Badnavirus viruses: Dracaena mottle virus (DrMV) (YP_610965) and Lucky bamboo bacilliform virus (ABR01170). Phylogenetic analysis of BCMNVA was based on amino acid sequences of the Nib region. The BCMNVA phylogenetic tree resolved two clades identified as clade (I and II). Sequence from this study SRF35_MK014482, clustered within clade I with other Kenyan sequences. Conversely, Bayesian phylogenetic analysis of ALPV was based on nucleotide sequences of the hypothetical protein gene 1 and 2. Three main clades were resolved and identified as clades I-III. The Kenyan sequence from this study (SRF35_MK014481) clustered within clade II, and nested within a sub-clade; comprising of sequences from China and an earlier ALPV sequences from Kenya isolated from maize (MF458892). Our findings support the use of viral metagenomics to reveal the nascent viruses, their viral diversity and evolutionary history of these viruses. The detection of ALPV and PVBV indicate that these viruses have likely been underreported due to the unavailability of diagnostic tools.
