Abstract
Potato virus Y (PVY) relies on aphids and tubers to spread in the field and causes serious economic losses in the potato industry. Here, we found that pyrido[1,2-α] pyrimidinone mesoionic compounds with insecticidal activity against aphids possessed a good inhibitory effect on PVY. Among them, compound 35 had the best inhibitory activity against PVY (EC50 = 104 μg/mL), even superior to that of ningnanmycin (125 μg/mL). The fluorescence and qPCR results confirmed that compound 35 could inhibit the proliferation of PVY in Nicotiana benthamiana. Preliminary experiments on the mechanism of action indicated that compound 35 had good binding affinity with the coat protein (CP), which plays an essential role in aphid-PVY interactions. Molecular docking revealed that compound 35 could bind to the pocket of CP formed by Ser52, Glu204, and Arg208. Compound 35 had substantially lower binding affinity (Kd) values with CPS52A (219 μM), CPE204A (231 μM), and CPR208A (189 μM) than those with CPWT (5.80 μM). A luciferase assay confirmed that mutating Ser52, Glu204, and Arg208 significantly affected the expression level of CP and further reduced virus proliferation. Therefore, the broad-spectrum activity of compound 35 provides a unique strategy for the prevention and treatment of PVY.

Abstract
Many viruses employ a process known as superinfection exclusion (SIE) to block subsequent entry or replication of the same or closely related viruses in the cells they occupy. SIE is also referred to as Cross-protection refers to the situation where a host plant infected by a mild strain of a virus or viroid gains immunity against a more severe strain closely related to the initial infectant. The mechanisms underlying cross-protection are not fully understood. In this study, we performed a comparative transcriptomic analysis of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) leaves. The strains PVYN-Wi-HLJ-BDH-2 and PVYNTN-NW-INM-W-369-12 are henceforth designated as BDH and 369, respectively. In total, 806 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were detected between the Control and JZ (preinfected with BDH and challenge with 369) treatment. Gene Ontology (GO) analysis showed that the response to external biological stimulation, signal transduction, kinase, immunity, redox pathways were significantly enriched. Among these pathways, we identified numerous differentially expressed metabolites related to virus infection. Moreover, our data also identified a small set of genes that likely play important roles in the establishment of cross-protection. Specifically, we observed significant differential expression of the A1-II gamma-like gene, elongation factor 1-alpha-like gene, and subtilisin-like protease StSBT1.7 gene, with StSBT1.7 being the most significant in our transcriptome data. These genes can stimulate the expression of defense plant genes, induce plant chemical defense, and participate in the induction of trauma and pathogenic bacteria. Our findings provided insights into the mechanisms underlying the ability of mild viruses to protect host plants against subsequent closely related virus infection in Solanum tuberosum L.

Abstract
Potato virus Y (PVY) is one of the most economically important pathogens of potato. PVY exhibits different phenotypes in dissimilar potato cultivars. Previously, we observed that two recombinant isolates, PVYN-Wi-HLJ-BDH-2 (BDH) and PVYNTN-NW(SYR-II)-INM-W-369-12 (369), exhibited different virulence levels in potato cultivar Kexin 13 despite high genome sequence identity. Indeed, 369 induced severe necrosis and plant death in severe cases in Kexin 13 and severe mosaic in cultivar Yanshu 8, whereas BDH caused mainly mosaic symptoms on the plants of both cultivars. We hypothesized that preinfection of plants with BDH could cross-protect them from 369 infection, and not vice versa. Challenge inoculation, either by mechanical wounding or through grafting, with 369 on plants that were preinfected with BDH did not augment the symptom expression in both cultivars. Reverse transcription quantitative PCR analysis showed that, after challenge inoculation with 369, the titer of the isolate on BDH-preinfected plants remained at a low level (about 3 × 104 copy/µl) during the tested time course (0 h to 30 days). In contrast, in plants that were preinoculated with buffer (mock) and challenge inoculated with 369, the titer of 369 increased continuously until reaching its highest level of about 2 × 107 (Yanshu 8) and about 4 × 108 (Kexin 13) during the time course. Surprisingly, in plants that were preinfected with 369 and challenge inoculated with BDH, the accumulation of BDH reached nearly the same level as that in plants that were preinoculated with buffer and challenge inoculated with BDH. Taken together, these results suggest that PVYN-Wi mediated cross-protection against PVYNTN-NW(SYR-II) by superior competition and better fitness.

Abstract
Potato is an important crop in Shanxi province, located in north-central China. In 2019 to 2020, 319 potato leaf samples were collected from eight locations distributed in three major potato production areas in Shanxi. BioChip testing revealed the presence of several potato viruses, of which Potato virus Y (PVY) was the most common, reaching an incidence of 87.8% of all symptomatic samples. Immunocaptured multiplex reverse transcription (RT) PCR was used to identify strains for all 280 PVY-positive samples, unveiling 242 samples infected with a single strain of PVY (86.4%) and 38 (13.6%) with a mixed infection. Of samples with a single-strain infection, PVY-SYR-II accounted for 102 (42.1%), followed by PVYN-Wi (33, 13.6%), PVY-SYR-I (28, 11.6%), 261-4 (22, 9.1%), PVYNTNa (20, 8.3%), PVYNTNb (19, 7.9%), and PVY-SYR-III (18, 7.4%). Seven isolates representing different recombinants were selected for whole genome sequencing. Phylogenetic and recombination analyses confirmed the RT-PCR-based strain typing for all seven strains of PVY found in Shanxi. SXKL-12 is the first SYR-III strain from potato reported from China. However, unlike that in other known SYR-III isolates, the region positioned from 1,764 to 1,902 nt in SXKL-12 shared the highest sequence identity of 82.2% with an uncharacterized PVY isolate, JL-23, from China. Interestingly, PVYN-Wi isolate SXZY-40 also possessed a more divergent sequence for the region positioned from 6,156 to 6,276 nt than other N-Wi isolates known to date, sharing the highest identity of 86.6% with an uncharacterized Chinese PVY isolate, JL-11. Pathogenicity analysis of dominant strains PVY-SYR-II and PVYN-Wi in six local popular potato cultivars revealed that 'Kexin 13', 'Helan 15', and 'Jizhangshu 12' were susceptible to these two strains, with mild mottling or mosaic symptom expression, and three cultivars, 'Jinshu 16', 'Qingshu 9', and 'Xisen 6', were fully resistant.

Abstract
Potato virus Y (PVY) is a significant threat to potato (Solanum tuberosum) production in Mexico. The presence of recombinant strains of PVY circulating in potato has been reported in the country, but no systematic study on the genetic diversity of PVY in potato and prevalence of PVY strains has been conducted yet. We report on a series of surveys in seed potato production areas in two states in Mexico, namely, Chihuahua and Jalisco, between 2011 and 2019. PVY was detected through the period of nine years in multiple potato cultivars in both states, often remaining asymptomatic in the most popular cultivars, such as 'Fianna' and 'Agata'. When typed to strain, all PVY samples studied were found to have N-serotype, and were all identified molecularly as isolates of the same recombinant strain, PVYNTN. Five of these PVY isolates were tested on tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum), where they induced vein necrosis supporting the molecular typing. This identification was also confirmed biologically on differential potato cultivars, where one PVYNTN isolate from the 2013 survey triggered the hypersensitive resistance conferred by the Nztbr gene in the cv. Maris Bard. Seven of these Mexican PVYNTN isolates, collected between 2013 and 2019, including two PVY isolates from potato tubers exhibiting potato tuber necrotic ringspot disease, were subjected to whole genome sequencing and found to show a typical PVYNTNa recombinant structure. When subjected to phylogenetic analysis, Mexican PVYNTN sequences clustered in more than three separate clades, suggesting multiple introductions of PVYNTN in the country. The wide circulation of the PVYNTN strain in Mexican potato should be considered by potato producers, to develop mitigation strategies for this PVY strain associated with tuber necrotic symptoms.

Abstract
Potato viral disease has been a major problem in potato production worldwide including Russia. Here, we detected Potato Virus M (PVM), P (PVP), S (PVS), Y (PVY), and X (PVX) and Potato Leaf Roll Virus (PLRV) by RT-PCR on potato leaves and tubers from the Northwestern (NW), Volga (VF), and Far Eastern (FE) federal districts of Russia. Each sample was co-infected with up to five viruses. RT-PCR disclosed all six viruses in NW, three in VF, and five in FE. Phylogenetic analyses of PVM and PVS strains resolved all PVM isolates in Group O (ordinary) and all PVS isolates in Group O. Seven PVY strains were detected, and they included only recombinants. PVY recombinants were thus the dominant potato virus strains in Russia, although they widely varied among the regions. Our research provides insights into the geographical distribution and genetic variability of potato viruses in Russia.

Abstract
Cowpea mild mottle virus (CPMMV; genus Carlavirus) can be a destructive pathogen of soybean but there is little information about its distribution on soybean in China. Here, we collected soybean plants with virus-like symptoms from 11 fields widely scattered within China, and used high-throughput sequencing to determine their virome. Most samples (8/11) were co-infected by the well-studied potyvirus soybean mosaic virus (SMV) and CPMMV, and the remaining three samples were singly infected with CPMMV. The near-complete genome sequences of the 11 CPMMV isolates were determined and phylogenetic analysis showed that they constituted a new genetic clade. One recombination event was detected among the CPMMV sequences, and the isolate CPMMV_JL_CC was identified as recombinant. In mechanical inoculation assays, co-infection by CPMMV and SMV resulted in an enhancement of disease symptoms, but decreased the expression level of the genomic RNAs and CP of CPMMV, without significantly affecting SMV accumulation. The interaction between these viruses needs further investigation.

Abstract
Potato virus Y (PVY) is one of the main viruses affecting potato in Australia. However, molecular characterization of PVY isolates circulating in potato in different states of Australia has not yet been thoroughly conducted. Only nonrecombinant isolates of three biological PVY strains collected from potato were reported previously from Western Australia and one from Queensland. Here, PVY isolates collected from seed potato originating in Victoria, Australia, and printed on FTA cards, were subjected to strain typing by RT-PCR, with three isolates subjected to whole genome sequencing. All the 59 PVY isolates detected during two growing seasons were identified to be recombinants based on two RT-PCR assays. No nonrecombinant PVY isolates were identified. All the RT-PCR typed isolates belonged to the PVYNTN strain. Sequence analysis of the whole genomes of three isolates suggested a single introduction of the PVYNTN strain to Australia but provided no clues as to where this introduction originated. Given the association of the PVYNTN strain with potato tuber damage, growers in Australia should implement appropriate strategies to manage PVYNTN in potato.

Abstract
Potato virus Y (PVY) is a member of the genus Potyvirus, family Potyviridae, is considered one of the most devastating pest affecting economically important crops, such as potato, tobacco, tomato and pepper, representing a serious threat due to high incidence and worldwide distribution. Its economic significance as well as it biological and molecular complexities have aroused great attention, thus several studies have explore it genetic characteristics. However, little is known about PVY codon usage. To shed light on the relation of codon usage among viruses and their hosts is extremely important to understand virus survival, fitness and evolution. In this study, we performed a comprehensive analysis of codon usage and composition of PVY non-recombinant strains (PVYN-NA, PVYEu-N, PVYO, PVYO5, PVYC) based on 130 complete open reading frame sequences extracted from public databases. Furthermore, similarities between the synonymous codon usage of PVY and its main hosts were investigated. The results obtained in the current study suggest that the overall codon usage among PVY genotypes is similar and slightly biased. PVY codon usage is strongly influenced by mutational bias, but also by G + C compositional constraint and dinucleotide composition. Furthermore, similarities among codon usage preferences between PVY strains and analyzed hosts were observed.

Abstract
Potato virus Y (PVY) is the most economically important virus infecting cultivated potato (Solanum tuberosum L.). Accurate diagnosis is crucial to regulate the trade of tubers and for the sanitary selection of plant material for propagation. However, high genetic diversity of PVY represents a challenge for the detection and classification of isolates. Here, the diversity of Irish PVY isolates from a germplasm collection and commercial sites was investigated using conventional molecular and serological techniques. Recombinant PVY isolates were prevalent, with PVYNTNa being the predominant genotype. In addition, we evaluated Nanopore sequencing to detect and reconstruct the whole genome sequence of four viruses (PVY, PVX, PVS, PLRV) and five PVY genotypes in a subset of eight potato plants. De novo assembly of Nanopore sequencing reads produced single contigs covering greater than 90% of the viral genome and sharing greater than 99.5% identity to the consensus sequences obtained with Illumina sequencing. Interestingly, single near full genome contigs were obtained for different isolates of PVY co-infecting the same plant. Mapping reads to available reference viral genomes enabled us to generate near complete genome sequences sharing greater than 99.90% identity to the Illumina-derived consensus. This is the first report describing the use of Oxford Nanopore's MinION to detect and genotype potato viruses. We reconstructed the genome of PVY and other RNA viruses; indicating the technologies potential for virus detection in potato production systems, and for the study of genetic diversity of highly heterogeneous viruses such as PVY.

Characterization of potato virus Y populations in potato in Israel. Arch Virol 2019; 164:1691-1695.

Abstract
Potato virus Y (PVY) is the most common virus infecting potato worldwide. We analysed potato tuber PVY infections from the major Israeli growing region in 2014-2017. Isolates were characterized by multiplex PCR according to Chikh-Ali et al. (Plant Disease 97, 1370, 2013), whose primers were not fully compatible with the Israeli isolates. New primers were designed for a multiplex PCR assay to differentiate the Israeli isolates. Three recombinant strains were observed: PVYNTNa (72% of the isolates), PVYNWi (24%) and PVYSyr-III (found only in 2015). The archetypal PVYO strain was found only once. The classical PVY strains have recently been displaced by recombinant forms, with PVYNTNa dominating. The Israeli isolates appear very similar to those of Europe (the seed tuber source), except for PVYSyr-III.
