Abstract
Plant viruses are a group of intracellular pathogens that persistently threaten global food security. Significant advances in plant virology have been achieved by Chinese scientists over the last 20 years, including basic research and technologies for preventing and controlling plant viral diseases. Here, we review these milestones and advances, including the identification of new crop-infecting viruses, dissection of pathogenic mechanisms of multiple viruses, examination of multilayered interactions among viruses, their host plants, and virus-transmitting arthropod vectors, and in-depth interrogation of plant-encoded resistance and susceptibility determinants. Notably, various plant virus-based vectors have also been successfully developed for gene function studies and target gene expression in plants. We also recommend future plant virology studies in China.

PLoS Pathog 2023; 19:e1011266.

Abstract
The Janus kinase-signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK-STAT) pathway is an evolutionarily conserved signaling pathway that can regulate various biological processes. However, the role of JAK-STAT pathway in the persistent viral infection in insect vectors has rarely been investigated. Here, using a system that comprised two different plant viruses, Rice stripe virus (RSV) and Rice black-streaked dwarf virus (RBSDV), as well as their insect vector small brown planthopper, we elucidated the regulatory mechanism of JAK-STAT pathway in persistent viral infection. Both RSV and RBSDV infection activated the JAK-STAT pathway and promoted the accumulation of suppressor of cytokine signaling 5 (SOCS5), an E3 ubiquitin ligase regulated by the transcription factor STAT5B. Interestingly, the virus-induced SOCS5 directly interacted with the anti-apoptotic B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL2) to accelerate the BCL2 degradation through the 26S proteasome pathway. As a result, the activation of apoptosis facilitated persistent viral infection in their vector. Furthermore, STAT5B activation promoted virus amplification, whereas STAT5B suppression inhibited apoptosis and reduced virus accumulation. In summary, our results reveal that virus-induced JAK-STAT pathway regulates apoptosis to promote viral infection, and uncover a new regulatory mechanism of the JAK-STAT pathway in the persistent plant virus transmission by arthropod vectors.

Abstract
The small brown planthopper, Laodelphax striatellus, is a destructive pest insect found in rice fields. L. striatellus not only directly feeds on the phloem sap of rice but also transmits various viruses, such as rice stripe virus (RSV) and rice black-streaked dwarf virus, resulting in serious loss of rice production. RSV is a rice-infecting virus that is found mainly in Korea, China, and Japan. To develop novel strategies to control L. striatellus and L. striatellus-transmitted viruses, various studies have been conducted, based on vector biology, interactions between vectors and pathogens, and omics, including transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics. In this review, we discuss the roles of saliva proteins during phloem sap-sucking and virus transmission, the diversity and role of the microbial community in L. striatellus, the profile and molecular mechanisms of insecticide resistance, classification of L. striatellus-transmitted RSV, its host range and symptoms, its genome composition and roles of virus-derived proteins, its distribution, interactions with L. striatellus, and resistance and control, to suggest future directions for integrated pest management to control L. striatellus and L. striatellus-transmitted viruses.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Plant viruses transmitted by arthropod vectors threaten crop health worldwide. Rice stripe virus (RSV) is one of the most important rice viruses in East Asia and is transmitted by the small brown planthopper (SBPH). Previously, it was demonstrated that the viral glycoprotein NSvs2-N could mediate RSV infection of the vector midgut. Therefore, NSvc2-N protein could potentially be used to reduce RSV transmission by competitively blocking midgut receptors. RESULTS Here, we report that transgenic rice plants expressing viral glycoprotein can interfere with RSV acquisition and transmission by SBPH. The soluble fraction (30-268 amino acids, designated NSvs2-NS ) of NSvs2-N was transformed into rice calli, which produced plants harboring the exogenous gene. When SBPH was fed on transgenic plants prior to RSV-infected rice (sequential feeding) and when insects were fed on RSV-infected transgenic plants (concomitant feeding), virus acquisition by the insect vector was inhibited, and subsequent viral titers were reduced. Immunofluorescence labeling also indicated that viral infection of the insect midgut was inhibited after SBPH was fed on transgenic plants. The system by which RSV infected insect cells in vitro was used to corroborate the role of NSvc2-NS in reducing viral infection. After the cells were incubated with transgenic rice sap, the virus infection rate of the cells decreased significantly, and viral accumulation in the cells was lower than that in the control group. CONCLUSION These results demonstrated the negative effect of NSvs2-NS transgenic plants on RSV transmission by insect vectors, which provides a novel and effective way to control plant viral diseases. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Virus evolution is the change in the genetic structure of a viral population over time and results in the emergence of new viral variants, strains, and species with novel biological properties, including adaptation to new hosts. There are host, vector, environmental, and viral factors that contribute to virus evolution. To achieve or fine tune compatibility and successfully establish infection, viruses adapt to a particular host species or to a group of species. However, some viruses are better able to adapt to diverse hosts, vectors, and environments. Viruses generate genetic diversity through mutation, reassortment, and recombination. Plant viruses are exposed to genetic drift and selection pressures by host and vector factors, and random variants or those with a competitive advantage are fixed in the population and mediate the emergence of new viral strains or species with novel biological properties. This process creates a footprint in the virus genome evident as the preferential accumulation of substitutions, insertions, or deletions in areas of the genome that function as determinants of host adaptation. Here, with respect to plant viruses, we review the current understanding of the sources of variation, the effect of selection, and its role in virus evolution and host adaptation.

Nonconcomitant host-to-host transmission of multipartite virus genome segments may lead to complete genome reconstitution. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2022; 119:e2201453119.

Abstract
Because multipartite viruses package their genome segments in different viral particles, they face a potentially huge cost if the entire genomic information, i.e., all genome segments, needs to be present concomitantly for the infection to function. Previous work with the octapartite faba bean necrotic stunt virus (FBNSV; family Nanoviridae, genus Nanovirus) showed that this issue can be resolved at the within-host level through a supracellular functioning; all viral segments do not need to be present within the same host cell but may complement each other through intercellular trafficking of their products (protein or messenger RNA [mRNA]). Here, we report on whether FBNSV can as well decrease the genomic integrity cost during between-host transmission. Using viable infections lacking nonessential virus segments, we show that full-genome infections can be reconstituted and function through separate acquisition and/or inoculation of complementary sets of genome segments in recipient hosts. This separate acquisition/inoculation can occur either through the transmission of different segment sets by different individual aphid vectors or by the sequential acquisition by the same aphid of complementary sets of segments from different hosts. The possibility of a separate between-host transmission of different genome segments thus offers a way to at least partially resolve the genomic maintenance problem faced by multipartite viruses.

Abstract
The rice stripe virus (RSV) is responsible for devastating effects in East Asian rice-producing areas. The disease-specific protein (SP) level in rice plants determines the severity of RSV symptoms. Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) and bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) assays confirmed the interaction between an R3H domain-containing host factor, OsR3H3, and RSV SP in vitro and in vivo. This study determined the crystal structure of SP at 1.71 Å. It is a monomer with a clear shallow groove to accommodate host factors. Docking OsR3H3 into the groove generates an SP/OsR3H3 complex, which provides insights into the protein-binding mechanism of SP. Furthermore, SP's protein-binding properties and model-defined recognition residues were assessed using mutagenesis, ITC, and BiFC assays. This study revealed the structure and preliminary protein interaction mechanisms of RSV SP, shedding light on the molecular mechanism underlying the development of RSV infection symptoms.

Abstract
Rice stripe virus (RSV) has a serious effect on rice production. Our previous research had shown that RSV P2 plays important roles in RSV infection, so in order to further understand the effect of P2 on rice, we used Tandem Mass Tag (TMT) quantitative proteomics experimental system to analyze the changes of protein in transgenic rice expressing P2 for the first time. The results of proteomics showed that a total of 4,767 proteins were identified, including 198 up-regulated proteins and 120 down-regulated proteins. Functional classification results showed that differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were mainly localized in chloroplasts and mainly involved in the metabolic pathways. Functional enrichment results showed that DEPs are mainly involved in RNA processing and splicing. We also verified the expression of several DEPs at the mRNA level and the interaction of a transcription factor (B7EPB8) with RSV P2. This research is the first time to use proteomics technology to explore the mechanism of RSV infection in rice with the RSV P2 as breakthrough point. Our findings provide valuable information for the study of RSV P2 and RSV infection mechanism.

Abstract
The majority of plant viral disease is transmitted and spread by insect vectors in the field. The small brown planthopper, Laodelphax striatellus (Fallén), is the only efficient vector for rice black-streaked dwarf virus (RBSDV), a devastating plant virus that infects multiple grain crops, including rice, maize, and wheat. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-binding cassette (ABC) transporters participate in various biological processes. However, little is known about whether ABC transporters affect virus infection in insects. In this study, RBSDV accumulation was significantly reduced in L. striatellus after treatment with verapamil, an effective inhibitor of ABC transporters. Thirty-four ABC transporter genes were identified in L. striatellus and expression analysis showed that LsABCF2 and LsABCG9 were significantly upregulated and downregulated, respectively, after RBSDV infection. LsABCF2 and LsABCG9 were expressed during all developmental stages, and LsABCG9 was highly expressed in the midgut of L. striatellus. Knockdown of LsABCF2 promoted RBSDV accumulation, while knockdown of LsABCG9 suppressed RBSDV accumulation in L. striatellus. Our data showed that L. striatellus might upregulate the expression of LsABCF2 and downregulate LsABCG9 expression to suppress RBSDV infection. These results will contribute to understanding the effects of ABC transporters on virus transmission and provide theoretical basis for virus management in the field.

Abstract
Most plant viruses require insect vectors for transmission. One of the key steps for the transmission of persistent-circulative plant viruses is overcoming the gut barrier to enter epithelial cells. To date, little has been known about viral cofactors in gut epithelial cells of insect vectors. Here, we identified flotillin 2 as a plasma membrane protein that facilitates the infection of rice stripe virus (RSV) in its vector, the small brown planthopper. Flotillin 2 displayed a prominent plasma membrane location in midgut epithelial cells. The nucleocapsid protein of RSV and flotillin 2 colocalized on gut microvilli, and a nanomolar affinity existed between the two proteins. Knockout of flotillin 2 impeded the entry of virions into epithelial cells, resulting in a 57% reduction of RSV levels in planthoppers. The knockout of flotillin 2 decreased disease incidence in rice plants fed by viruliferous planthoppers from 40% to 11.7%. Furthermore, flotillin 2 mediated the infection of southern rice black-streaked dwarf virus in its vector, the white-backed planthopper. This work implies the potential of flotillin 2 as a target for controlling the transmission of rice stripe disease. IMPORTANCE Plant viral diseases are a major threat to world agriculture. The transmission of 80% of plant viruses requires vector insects, and 54% of vector-borne plant viruses are persistent-circulative viruses, which must overcome the barriers of gut cells with the help of proteins on the cell surface. Here, we identified flotillin 2 as a membrane protein that mediates the cell entry of rice stripe virus in its vector insect, small brown planthopper. Flotillin 2 displays a prominent cellular membrane location in midgut cells and can specifically bind to virions. The loss of flotillin 2 impedes the entry of virions into the midgut cells of vector insects and substantially suppresses viral transmission to rice. Therefore, flotillin 2 may be a promising target gene for manipulation in vector insects to control the transmission of rice stripe disease and perhaps that of other rice virus diseases in the future.

Abstract
Rice stripe tenuivirus (RSV) is mainly transmitted by the insect vector small brown planthopper (SBPH, Laodelphax striatellus) in a persistent-propagative manner. Virus transmission is dependent on the interplay between viral proteins and vector factors. Pc2, a nonstructural protein of RSV, plays an important role in virus transmission. However, the vector proteins that interact with Pc2 are unknown. In this study, we identified three SBPH proteins that interact with the N-terminal 381 amino acids of Pc2 (Pc2N) by using a yeast two-hybrid system (Y2H). The interaction of Pc2N with heat shock protein cognate 70 (HSC70) was studied further. HSC70 was verified to interact with RSV Pc2N by biomolecular fluorescence complementation and co-immunoprecipitation assays. HSC70 colocalized with RSV Pc2N in both Sf9 cells and the hemocytes of SBPHs. Inhibition of HSC70 expression via RNA interference reduced virus levels in hemolymph and salivary glands of SBPHs and resulted in decreased virus transmission efficiency. These data provide evidence that a vector protein, HSC70, is employed by RSV to facilitate virus accumulation in the hemolymph and thereby promote virus transmission. These findings are important for a better understanding of the interactions between plant viruses and insect vectors.

Abstract
Plant viruses employ diverse virulence strategies to achieve successful infection, but there are few known general strategies of viral pathogenicity and transmission used by widely different plant viruses. Here, we report a class of independently evolved virulence factors in different plant RNA viruses which possess active transcriptional repressor activity. Rice viruses in the genera Fijivirus, Tenuivirus, and Cytorhabdovirus all have transcriptional repressors that interact in plants with the key components of jasmonic acid (JA) signaling, namely mediator subunit OsMED25, OsJAZ proteins, and OsMYC transcription factors. These transcriptional repressors can directly disassociate the OsMED25-OsMYC complex, inhibit the transcriptional activation of OsMYC, and then combine with OsJAZ proteins to cooperatively attenuate the JA pathway in a way that benefits viral infection. At the same time, these transcriptional repressors efficiently enhanced feeding by the virus insect vectors by repressing JA signaling. Our findings reveal a common strategy in unrelated plant viruses in which viral transcriptional repressors hijack and repress the JA pathway in favor of both viral pathogenicity and vector transmission.

Abstract
Rice stripe disease caused by Rice stripe virus (RSV) is one of the most devastating plant viruses of rice and causes enormous losses in production. RSV is transmitted from plant to plant by the small brown planthopper (Laodelphax striatellus) in a circulative-propagative manner. The recent reemergence of this pathogen in East Asia since 2000 has made RSV one of the most studied plant viruses over the past two decades. Extensive studies of RSV have resulted in substantial advances regarding fundamental aspects of the virus infection. Here, we compile and analyze recent information on RSV with a special emphasis on the strategies that RSV has adopted to establish infections. These advances include RSV replication and movement in host plants and the small brown planthopper vector, innate immunity defenses against RSV infection, epidemiology, and recent advances in the management of rice stripe disease. Understanding these issues will facilitate the design of novel antiviral therapies for management and contribute to a more detailed understanding of negative-sense virus-host interactions at the molecular level.

Abstract
A novel virus with a quadruple genome of negative-sense, single-stranded RNA was identified by high-throughput sequencing (HTS) in a grass sample from Saxony-Anhalt, Germany, and tentatively called Festuca stripe-associated virus (FSaV). The genome of FSaV consists of four segments and a total of 16,535 nucleotides (nt) which encode seven open reading frames (ORF). FSaV shares highest nt identity (between 72.84% to 80.74%) to Iranian wheat stripe virus (IWSV) and rice hoja blanca virus (RHBV). Additionally, pairwise comparisons between the amino acid sequences of the ORFs on the genome of FSaV and the corresponding ones on the genomes of the members of the Tenuvirus genus showed that FSaV shared 83.17% and 90.85% (amino acid) aa identity to IWSV. Moreover, the non-coding intergenic regions (ncIR) shared only between 49.5% to 60.87% nt identity to the corresponding regions on the IWSV genome. Based on the ICTV species demarcation, the results suggest that FSaV may represent a new species of the genus Tenuivirus. Plastid sequence analysis of the HTS data showed that the original host is a member of the genus Festuca most likely the species Festuca pratensis.

Abstract
The importin α family belongs to the conserved nuclear transport pathway in eukaryotes. However, the biological functions of importin α in the plasma membrane are still elusive. Here, we report that importin α, as a plasma membrane-associated protein, is exploited by the rice stripe virus (RSV) to enter vector insect cells, especially salivary gland cells. When the expression of three importin α genes was simultaneously knocked down, few virions entered the salivary glands of the small brown planthopper, Laodelphax striatellus Through hemocoel inoculation of virions, only importin α2 was found to efficiently regulate viral entry into insect salivary-gland cells. Importin α2 bound the nucleocapsid protein of RSV with a relatively high affinity through its importin β-binding (IBB) domain, with a dissociation constant K D of 9.1 μM. Furthermore, importin α2 and its IBB domain showed a distinct distribution in the plasma membrane through binding to heparin in heparan sulfate proteoglycan. When the expression of importin α2 was knocked down in viruliferous planthoppers or in nonviruliferous planthoppers before they acquired virions, the viral transmission efficiency of the vector insects in terms of the viral amount and disease incidence in rice was dramatically decreased. These findings not only reveal the specific function of the importin α family in the plasma membrane utilized by viruses, but also provide a promising target gene in vector insects for manipulation to efficiently control outbreaks of rice stripe disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND MicroRNAs (miRNAs), a class of small non-coding endogenous RNAs, play key roles in various biological processes. Most plant viruses are transmitted by insect vectors. However, little is known about the function of miRNAs on plant virus-insect host interaction. RESULTS We investigated the role of miR-315-5p in regulation of plant viral infection in insects using a rice black-streaked dwarf virus (RBSDV) and small brown planthopper (SBPH) interaction system. Our results showed that miR-315-5p had the highest expression level in 2nd-instar nymph, and was highly expressed in the salivary gland and midgut in SBPH. miR-315-5p was in response to and regulated RBSDV infection in SBPH. Injection of miR-315-5p mimic, agomir-315, significantly increased the RBSDV accumulation, whereas injection of miR-315-5p inhibitor, antagomir-315, reduced virus accumulation in SBPH. Furthermore, a melatonin receptor was identified as a target gene of miR-315-5p by the dual luciferase reporter assay. Knockdown of the melatonin receptor significantly increased the expression of RBSDV coat protein gene S10 and replication related genes, S5-1, S6, and S9-1. Furthermore, treatment with melatonin receptor antagonist luzindole and activator agomelatine significantly increased and reduced RBSDV accumulation in SBPH, respectively. Compared to the control, miR-315-5p did not affect the efficiency of RBSDV acquisition in SBPH. However, the efficiency of RBSDV transmission was significantly reduced after injecting antagomir-315. CONCLUSION Taken together, our data reveal that miR-315-5p is beneficial for RBSDV infection in its insect vector by directly targeting a melatonin receptor. These findings provide a new insight to the function of miRNAs in virus-insect vector interaction. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

J Virol 2021; 95:e0058921. [PMID: 33952642 PMCID: PMC8223943 DOI: 10.1128/jvi.00589-21] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2021] [Accepted: 04/26/2021] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Negative-stranded RNA (NSR) viruses include both animal- and plant-infecting viruses that often cause serious diseases in humans and livestock and in agronomic crops. Rice stripe tenuivirus (RSV), a plant NSR virus with four negative-stranded/ambisense RNA segments, is one of the most destructive rice pathogens in many Asian countries. Due to the lack of a reliable reverse-genetics technology, molecular studies of RSV gene functions and its interaction with host plants are severely hampered. To overcome this obstacle, we developed a mini-replicon-based reverse-genetics system for RSV gene functional analysis in Nicotiana benthamiana. We first developed a mini-replicon system expressing an RSV genomic RNA3 enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP) reporter [MR3(-)eGFP], a nucleocapsid (NP), and a codon usage-optimized RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRpopt). Using this mini-replicon system, we determined that RSV NP and RdRpopt are indispensable for the eGFP expression from MR3(-)eGFP. The expression of eGFP from MR3(-)eGFP can be significantly enhanced in the presence of four viral suppressors of RNA silencing (VSRs), NSs, and P19-HcPro-γb. In addition, NSvc4, the movement protein of RSV, facilitated eGFP trafficking between cells. We also developed an antigenomic RNA3-based replicon in N. benthamiana. However, we found that the RSV NS3 coding sequence acts as a cis element to regulate viral RNA expression. Finally, we made mini-replicons representing all four RSV genomic RNAs. This is the first mini-replicon-based reverse-genetics system for monocot-infecting tenuivirus. We believe that the mini-replicon system described here will allow studies of the RSV replication, transcription, cell-to-cell movement, and host machinery underpinning RSV infection in plants. IMPORTANCE Plant-infecting segmented negative-stranded RNA (NSR) viruses are grouped into three genera: Orthotospovirus, Tenuivirus, and Emaravirus. Reverse-genetics systems have been established for members of the genera Orthotospovirus and Emaravirus. However, there is still no reverse-genetics system available for Tenuivirus. Rice stripe virus (RSV) is a monocot-infecting tenuivirus with four negative-stranded/ambisense RNA segments. It is one of the most destructive rice pathogens and causes significant damage to the rice industry in Asian countries. Due to the lack of a reliable reverse-genetics system, molecular characterizations of RSV gene functions and the host machinery underpinning RSV infection in plants are extremely difficult. To overcome this obstacle, we developed a mini-replicon-based reverse-genetics system for RSV in Nicotiana benthamiana. This is the first mini-replicon-based reverse-genetics system for tenuivirus. We consider that this system will provide researchers a new working platform to elucidate the molecular mechanisms dictating segmented tenuivirus infections in plants.

Abstract
Maize stripe virus is a pathogen of corn and sorghum in subtropical and tropical regions worldwide. We used high-throughput sequencing to obtain the complete nucleotide sequence for the reference genome of maize stripe virus and to sequence the genomes of ten additional isolates collected from the United States or Papua New Guinea. Genetically, maize stripe virus is most closely related to rice stripe virus. We completed and characterized the RNA1 sequence for maize stripe virus, which revealed a large open reading frame encoding a putative protein with ovarian tumor-like cysteine protease, endonuclease, and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase domains. Phylogenetic and amino acid identity analyses among geographically diverse isolates revealed evidence for reassortment in RNA3 that was correlated with the absence of RNA5. This study yielded a complete and updated genetic description of the tenuivirus maize stripe virus and provided insight into potential mechanisms underpinning its diversity.

Abstract
Plant viruses transmitted by hemipteran vectors commonly cause losses to crop production. Rice stripe virus (RSV) and rice black streaked dwarf virus (RBSDV) are transmitted to rice plants by the same vector, the small brown planthopper (SBPH), Laodelphax striatellus Fallén, in a persistent propagative manner. However, rarely do the respective diseases they cause occur simultaneously in a field. Here, we determined the acquisition efficiency of RSV and RBSDV when acquired in succession or simultaneously by SBPH. When RBSDV was acquired first, RSV acquisition efficiency was significantly lower than when only acquiring RSV. However, RBSDV acquisition efficiency from insects that acquired RSV first was not significantly different between the insects only acquiring RBSDV. Immunofluorescence assays showed that the acquisition of RBSDV first might inhibit RSV entry into midgut epithelial cells, but RSV did not affect RBSDV entry. SBPHs were more likely to acquire RBSDV when they were feeding on plants coinfected with the two viruses. When RBSDV was acquired before RSV, RBSDV titer was significantly higher and RSV titer first declined, then increased compared to when only acquiring RBSDV or RSV. Only 5% of the SBPHs acquired both viruses when feeding on plants coinfected with RSV and RBSDV. These results provide a better understanding of the interaction between two persistent viruses when present in the same vector insect and explain why RSV and RBSDV occur in intermittent epidemics.

Abstract
Tomato mottle mosaic virus (ToMMV) is a noteworthy virus which belongs to the Virgaviridae family and causes serious economic losses in tomato. Here, we isolated and cloned the full-length genome of a ToMMV Chinese isolate (ToMMV-LN) from a naturally infected tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.). Sequence analysis showed that ToMMV-LN contains 6399 nucleotides (nts) and is most closely related to a ToMMV Mexican isolate with a sequence identity of 99.48%. Next, an infectious cDNA clone of ToMMV was constructed by a homologous recombination approach. Both the model host N. benthamiana and the natural hosts tomato and pepper developed severe symptoms upon agroinfiltration with pToMMV, which had a strong infectivity. Electron micrographs indicated that a large number of rigid rod-shaped ToMMV virions were observed from the agroinfiltrated N. benthamiana leaves. Finally, our results also confirmed that tomato plants inoculated with pToMMV led to a high infection rate of 100% in 4–5 weeks post-infiltration (wpi), while pepper plants inoculated with pToMMV led to an infection rate of 40–47% in 4–5 wpi. This is the first report of the development of a full-length infectious cDNA clone of ToMMV. We believe that this infectious clone will enable further studies of ToMMV genes function, pathogenicity and virus–host interaction.

Abstract
Negative-strand (-) RNA viruses (NSVs) comprise a large and diverse group of viruses that are generally divided in those with non-segmented and those with segmented genomes. Whereas most NSVs infect animals and humans, the smaller group of the plant-infecting counterparts is expanding, with many causing devastating diseases worldwide, affecting a large number of major bulk and high-value food crops. In 2018, the taxonomy of segmented NSVs faced a major reorganization with the establishment of the order Bunyavirales. This article overviews the major plant viruses that are part of the order, i.e., orthospoviruses (Tospoviridae), tenuiviruses (Phenuiviridae), and emaraviruses (Fimoviridae), and provides updates on the more recent ongoing research. Features shared with the animal-infecting counterparts are mentioned, however, special attention is given to their adaptation to plant hosts and vector transmission, including intra/intercellular trafficking and viral counter defense to antiviral RNAi.

Abstract
Rice stripe virus (RSV) is the causative agent of rice stripe disease and is completely dependent on insect vectors for its plant-to-plant transmission. Laodelphax striatellus is the major insect vector for RSV. In this study, we explored the interactions between RSV infection and L. striatellus autophagy, a potential intrinsic antiviral mechanism in insects. We found that L. striatellus autophagic activity did not affect RSV infection; however, the autophagy-related-8 (Atg8) gene significantly enhanced virus infection. During RSV initial infection within the L. striatellus midgut, silencing of Atg8 expression significantly decreased the phosphorylation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (p-JNK); however, when RSV infection is absent, silencing of Atg8 did not alter p-JNK levels. These results indicated that Atg8 might activate the JNK machinery by allowing more virus infection into cells. We further revealed that Atg8-deficiency significantly decreased RSV accumulation on the surface of the insect midgut epithelial cells, suggesting a receptor trafficking function of the γ-aminobutyric acid receptor-associated protein family. Using the RSV ovary entry as a model, in which vitellogenin receptor (VgR) mediates RSV cell entry, we clarified that Atg8-deficiency decreased the abundance of VgR localizing on the cytomembrane and disturbed the attachment of RSV in the germarium zones. Collectively, these results revealed an autophagy-independent function of L. striatellus Atg8 that enhances RSV initial infection by increasing virus attachment on the infection sites.

Abstract
Rice stripe virus (RSV), a tenuivirus with four negative-sense/ambisense genome segments, is one of the most devastating viral pathogens affecting rice production in many Asian countries. Despite extensive research, our understanding of RSV infection cycles and pathogenesis has been severely impaired by the lack of reverse genetics tools. In this study, we have engineered RSV minireplicon (MR)/minigenome cassettes with reporter genes substituted for the viral open reading frames in the negative-sense RNA1 or the ambisense RNA2-4 segments. After delivery to Nicotiana benthamiana leaves via agroinfiltration, MR reporter gene expression was detected only when the codon-optimized large viral RNA polymerase protein (L) was coexpressed with the nucleocapsid (N) protein. MR activity was also critically dependent on the coexpressed viral suppressors of RNA silencing, but ectopic expression of the RSV-encoded NS3 silencing suppressor drastically decreased reporter gene expression. We also developed intercellular movement-competent MR systems with the movement protein expressed either in cis from an RNA4-based MR or in trans from a binary plasmid. Finally, we generated multicomponent replicon systems by expressing the N and L proteins directly from complementary-sense RNA1 and RNA3 derivatives, which enhanced reporter gene expression, permitted autonomous replication and intercellular movement, and reduced the number of plasmids required for delivery. In summary, this work enables reverse genetics analyses of RSV replication, transcription, and cell-to-cell movement and provides a platform for engineering more complex recombinant systems.

Proteomic analysis of Laodelphax striatellus in response to Rice stripe virus infection reveal a potential role of ZFP36L1 in restriction of viral proliferation. J Proteomics 2021; 239:104184. [PMID: 33711487 DOI: 10.1016/j.jprot.2021.104184] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2020] [Revised: 02/18/2021] [Accepted: 03/01/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
Persistent plant viruses multiply and circulate inside insect vectors following the route of midgut-hemolymph-salivary gland. Currently, how viruses interact with insect vectors after they are released into hemolymph is not entirely clear. In this study, we found that the hemolymph and fat body (HF) contained the highest Rice stripe virus (RSV) levels. Proteomic analysis on RSV-free and RSV-infected HF identified 156 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs), with the majority of them participating in metabolism, transportation, and detoxification. The RNA binding protein esf2 was the most downregulated protein. Knocking down the expression of esf2 did not influence the RSV burden, but caused the lethal effect to L. striatellus. In contrast, the mRNA decay protein ZFP36L1 was 69% more abundant upon RSV infection, and suppression of ZFP36L1 significantly increased the RSV burden. Our results reveal the potential role of ZFP36L1 in restricting the viral proliferation, and provide valuable clues for unravelling the interaction between RSV and L. striatellus in HF. SIGNIFICANCE: More than 76% of plant viruses are transmitted by insect vectors. For persistent propagative transmission, plant viruses multiply and circulate inside insects following the route of midgut-hemolymph-salivary gland. However, how viruses interact with vector insects after they are released into hemolymph is not entirely clear. Our study investigated the influence of rice stripe virus (RSV) on insect hemolymph and fat body by iTRAQ labeling method. Among the 156 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) identified, two proteins associated with mRNA metabolism were selected for function analysis. We found that the mRNA decay activator protein ZFP36L1 influenced the RSV proliferation, and RNA binding protein esf2 caused the lethal effect to L. striatellus. Our results provide valuable clues for unveiling the interaction between RSV and L. striatellus, and might be useful in pest management.

Abstract
Of the approximately 1,200 plant virus species that have been described to date, nearly one-third are single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) viruses, and all are transmitted by insect vectors. However, most studies of vector transmission of plant viruses have focused on RNA viruses. All known plant ssDNA viruses belong to two economically important families, Geminiviridae and Nanoviridae, and in recent years, there have been increased efforts to understand whether they have evolved similar relationships with their respective insect vectors. This review describes the current understanding of ssDNA virus-vector interactions, including how these viruses cross insect vector cellular barriers, the responses of vectors to virus circulation, the possible existence of viral replication within insect vectors, and the three-way virus-vector-plant interactions. Despite recent breakthroughs in our understanding of these viruses, many aspects of plant ssDNA virus transmission remain elusive. More effort is needed to identify insect proteins that mediate the transmission of plant ssDNA viruses and to understand the complex virus-insect-plant three-way interactions in the field during natural infection.

Abstract
Land plants host a vast and diverse virome that is dominated by RNA viruses, with major additional contributions from reverse-transcribing and single-stranded (ss) DNA viruses. Here, we introduce the recently adopted comprehensive taxonomy of viruses based on phylogenomic analyses, as applied to the plant virome. We further trace the evolutionary ancestry of distinct plant virus lineages to primordial genetic mobile elements. We discuss the growing evidence of the pivotal role of horizontal virus transfer from invertebrates to plants during the terrestrialization of these organisms, which was enabled by the evolution of close ecological associations between these diverse organisms. It is our hope that the emerging big picture of the formation and global architecture of the plant virome will be of broad interest to plant biologists and virologists alike and will stimulate ever deeper inquiry into the fascinating field of virus-plant coevolution.

Abstract
Plant auxin response factor (ARF) transcription factors are an important class of key transcriptional modulators in auxin signaling. Despite the well-studied roles of ARF transcription factors in plant growth and development, it is largely unknown whether, and how, ARF transcription factors may be involved in plant resistance to pathogens. We show here that two fijiviruses (double-stranded RNA viruses) utilize their proteins to disturb the dimerization of OsARF17 and repress its transcriptional activation ability, while a tenuivirus (negative-sense single-stranded RNA virus) directly interferes with the DNA binding activity of OsARF17. These interactions impair OsARF17-mediated antiviral defense. OsARF17 also confers resistance to a cytorhabdovirus and was directly targeted by one of the viral proteins. Thus, OsARF17 is the common target of several very different viruses. This suggests that OsARF17 plays a crucial role in plant defense against different types of plant viruses, and that these viruses use independently evolved viral proteins to target this key component of auxin signaling and facilitate infection.

Abstract
Vector transmission plays a primary role in the life cycle of viruses, and insects are the most common vectors. An important mode of vector transmission, reported only for plant viruses, is circulative nonpropagative transmission whereby the virus cycles within the body of its insect vector, from gut to salivary glands and saliva, without replicating. This mode of transmission has been extensively studied in the viral families Luteoviridae and Geminiviridae and is also reported for Nanoviridae The biology of viruses within these three families is different, and whether the viruses have evolved similar molecular/cellular virus-vector interactions is unclear. In particular, nanoviruses have a multipartite genome organization, and how the distinct genome segments encapsidated individually transit through the insect body is unknown. Here, using a combination of fluorescent in situ hybridization and immunofluorescence, we monitor distinct proteins and genome segments of the nanovirus Faba bean necrotic stunt virus (FBNSV) during transcytosis through the gut and salivary gland cells of its aphid vector Acyrthosiphon pisum FBNSV specifically transits through cells of the anterior midgut and principal salivary gland cells, a route similar to that of geminiviruses but distinct from that of luteoviruses. Our results further demonstrate that a large number of virus particles enter every single susceptible cell so that distinct genome segments always remain together. Finally, we confirm that the success of nanovirus-vector interaction depends on a nonstructural helper component, the viral protein nuclear shuttle protein (NSP), which is shown to be mandatory for viral accumulation within gut cells.IMPORTANCE An intriguing mode of vector transmission described only for plant viruses is circulative nonpropagative transmission, whereby the virus passes through the gut and salivary glands of the insect vector without replicating. Three plant virus families are transmitted this way, but details of the molecular/cellular mechanisms of the virus-vector interaction are missing. This is striking for nanoviruses that are believed to interact with aphid vectors in ways similar to those of luteoviruses or geminiviruses but for which empirical evidence is scarce. We here confirm that nanoviruses follow a within-vector route similar to that of geminiviruses but distinct from that of luteoviruses. We show that they produce a nonstructural protein mandatory for viral entry into gut cells, a unique phenomenon for this mode of transmission. Finally, noting that nanoviruses are multipartite viruses, we demonstrate that a large number of viral particles penetrate susceptible cells of the vector, allowing distinct genome segments to remain together.

Abstract
Although many spherical and rod-shaped plant virus purification protocols are now available, only a few protocols on filamentous plant virus purification have been published. Here, we report a protocol for large-scale purification of Rice stripe virus (RSV) from RSV-infected rice tissues. RSV virions with high infectivity were first precipitated with polyethylene glycol (PEG) followed by pelleting through primary ultracentrifugation, ultracentrifugation in a glycerol cushion and ultracentrifugation in density gradient. The purified RSV virions can not only be viewed as filamentous particles under an electron microscope, but can also be acquired by insect vector through direct injection into insect body or through membrane feeding prior to transmission to rice plants.

Abstract
The plant viruses in the phylum Negarnaviricota, orders Bunyavirales and Mononegavirales, have common features of single-stranded, negative-sense RNA genomes and replication in the biological vector. Due to the similarities in biology, comparative functional analysis in plant and vector hosts is helpful for understanding host-virus interactions for negative-strand RNA viruses. In this review, we will highlight recent technological advances that are breaking new ground in the study of these recalcitrant virus systems. The development of infectious clones for plant rhabdoviruses and bunyaviruses is enabling unprecedented examination of gene function in plants and these advances are also being transferred to study virus biology in the vector. In addition, genome and transcriptome projects for critical nonmodel arthropods has enabled characterization of insect response to viruses and identification of interacting proteins. Functional analysis of genes using genome editing will provide future pathways for further study of the transmission cycle and new control strategies for these viruses and their vectors.

Abstract
Negative-stranded/ambisense RNA viruses (NSVs) include not only dangerous pathogens of medical importance but also serious plant pathogens of agronomic importance. Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) is one of the most important plant NSVs, infecting more than 1,000 plant species, and poses major threats to global food security. The segmented negative-stranded/ambisense RNA genomes of TSWV, however, have been a major obstacle to molecular genetic manipulation. In this study, we report the complete recovery of infectious TSWV entirely from complementary DNA (cDNA) clones. First, a replication- and transcription-competent minigenome replication system was established based on 35S-driven constructs of the S(-)-genomic (g) or S(+)-antigenomic (ag) RNA template, flanked by the 5' hammerhead and 3' ribozyme sequence of hepatitis delta virus, a nucleocapsid (N) protein gene and codon-optimized viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) gene. Next, a movement-competent minigenome replication system was developed based on M(-)-gRNA, which was able to complement cell-to-cell and systemic movement of reconstituted ribonucleoprotein complexes (RNPs) of S RNA replicon. Finally, infectious TSWV and derivatives carrying eGFP reporters were rescued in planta via simultaneous expression of full-length cDNA constructs coding for S(+)-agRNA, M(-)-gRNA, and L(+)-agRNA in which the glycoprotein gene sequence of M(-)-gRNA was optimized. Viral rescue occurred with the addition of various RNAi suppressors including P19, HcPro, and γb, but TSWV NSs interfered with the rescue of genomic RNA. This reverse genetics system for TSWV now allows detailed molecular genetic analysis of all aspects of viral infection cycle and pathogenicity.

Abstract
High-throughput sequencing technologies were used to identify plant viruses in cereal samples surveyed from 2012 to 2017. Fifteen genome sequences of a tenuivirus infecting wheat, oats, and spelt in Estonia, Norway, and Sweden were identified and characterized by their distances to other tenuivirus sequences. Like most tenuiviruses, the genome of this tenuivirus contains four genomic segments. The isolates found from different countries shared at least 92% nucleotide sequence identity at the genome level. The planthopper Javesella pellucida was identified as a vector of the virus. Laboratory transmission tests using this vector indicated that wheat, oats, barley, rye, and triticale, but none of the tested pasture grass species (Alopecurus pratensis, Dactylis glomerata, Festuca rubra, Lolium multiflorum, Phleum pratense, and Poa pratensis), are susceptible. Taking into account the vector and host range data, the tenuivirus we have found most probably represents European wheat striate mosaic virus first identified about 60 years ago. Interestingly, whereas we were not able to infect any of the tested cereal species mechanically, Nicotiana benthamiana was infected via mechanical inoculation in laboratory conditions, displaying symptoms of yellow spots and vein clearing evolving into necrosis, eventually leading to plant death. Surprisingly, one of the virus genome segments (RNA2) encoding both a putative host systemic movement enhancer protein and a putative vector transmission factor was not detected in N. benthamiana after several passages even though systemic infection was observed, raising fundamental questions about the role of this segment in the systemic spread in several hosts.

Abstract
The majority of plant-infecting viruses are transmitted by arthropod vectors that deliver them directly into a living plant cell. There are diverse mechanisms of transmission ranging from direct binding to the insect stylet (non-persistent transmission) to persistent-propagative transmission in which the virus replicates in the insect vector. Despite this diversity in interactions, most arthropods that serve as efficient vectors have feeding strategies that enable them to deliver the virus into the plant cell without extensive damage to the plant and thus effectively inoculate the plant. As such, the primary virus entry mechanism for plant viruses is mediated by the biological vector. Remarkably, viruses that are transmitted in a propagative manner (bunyaviruses, rhabdoviruses, and reoviruses) have developed an ability to replicate in hosts from two kingdoms. Viruses in the order Bunyavirales are of emerging importance and with the advent of new sequencing technologies, we are getting unprecedented glimpses into the diversity of these viruses. Plant-infecting bunyaviruses are transmitted in a persistent, propagative manner must enter two unique types of host cells, plant and insect. In the insect phase of the virus life cycle, the propagative viruses likely use typical cellular entry strategies to traverse cell membranes. In this review, we highlight the transmission and entry strategies of three genera of plant-infecting bunyaviruses: orthotospoviruses, tenuiviruses, and emaraviruses.
