Abstract
Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one of the most important staple crops in the world, along with maize and rice. More than 50 plant viruses are known to infect wheat worldwide. To date, there are no studies on the identification of viruses infecting wheat in Korea. Therefore, we investigated virome in wheat from three different geographical regions where wheat is mainly cultivated in Korea using Oxford Nanopore Technology (ONT) sequencing and Illumina sequencing. Five viral species, including those known to infect wheat, were identified using high-throughput sequencing strategies. Of these, barley virus G (BVG) and Hordeum vulgare endornavirus (HvEV) were consistently present in all libraries. Sugarcane yellow leaf virus (SCYLV) and wheat leaf yellowing-associated virus (WLYaV) were first identified in Korean wheat samples. The viruses identified by ONT and Illumina sequencing were compared using a heatmap. Though the ONT sequencing approach is less sensitive, the analysis results were similar to those of Illumina sequencing in our study. Both platforms served as reliable and powerful tools for detecting and identifying wheat viruses, achieving a balance between practicality and performance. The findings of this study will provide deeper insights into the wheat virosphere and further help improve disease management strategies.

Abstract
As a main molecular chaperone of histone H2A-H2B, nucleosome assembly protein 1 (NAP1) has been widely researched in many species. However, there is little research investigating the function of NAP1 in Triticum aestivum. To understand the capabilities of the family of NAP1 genes in wheat and the relationship between TaNAP1 genes and plant viruses, we performed comprehensive genome-wide analysis and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) for testing expression profiling under hormonal and viral stresses. Our results showed that TaNAP1 was expressed at different levels in different tissues, with higher expression in tissues with high meristematic capacity, such as roots. Furthermore, the TaNAP1 family may participate in plant defense mechanisms. This study provides a systematic analysis of the NAP1 gene family in wheat and lays the foundation for further studies on the function of TaNAP1 in the response of wheat plants to viral infection.

Abstract
Wheat plants with yellow stripes on their leaves were collected in the city of Tai'an (Shandong province, China). High-throughput sequencing analysis of the collected plants showed that they were coinfected with wheat leaf yellowing-associated virus (WLYaV) and an unidentified polerovirus. The genome of the unidentified virus, tentatively named "triticum yellow stripe virus" (TriYSV), comprises 5,595 nucleotides and contains seven open reading frames (ORFs), with a typical polerovirus genome structure. Analysis by sequence alignment showed that TriYSV had the highest sequence similarity to wheat yellow dwarf virus (WYDV, a tentative member of the genus Polerovirus), with 87.3% nucleotide sequence identity over the whole genome. Except for P3a and the coat protein (CP), all of the proteins encoded by TriYSV showed < 90% amino acid identity to those of other poleroviruses. Phylogenetic analysis based on RNA-dependent RNA polymerase and CP amino acid sequences and complete genome nucleotide sequences showed that the poleroviruses WYDV, cereal yellow dwarf virus RPS (CYDV-RPS), CYDV-RPV, and barley yellow dwarf virus GPV are the most closely related to TriYSV. Thus, TriYSV is proposed to be a new member of the genus Polerovirus.

Abstract
Weeds often grow alongside crop plants. In addition to competing with crops for nutrients, water and space, weeds host insect vectors or act as reservoirs for viral diversity. However, little is known about viruses infecting rice weeds. In this work, we used metatranscriptomic deep sequencing to identify RNA viruses from 29 weed samples representing 23 weed species. A total of 224 RNA viruses were identified: 39 newly identified viruses are sufficiently divergent to comprise new families and genera. The newly identified RNA viruses clustered within 18 viral families. Of the identified viruses, 196 are positive-sense single-stranded RNA viruses, 24 are negative-sense single-stranded RNA viruses and 4 are double-stranded RNA viruses. We found that some novel RNA viruses clustered within the families or genera of several plant virus species and have the potential to infect plants. Collectively, these results expand our understanding of viral diversity in rice weeds. Our work will contribute to developing effective strategies with which to manage the spread and epidemiology of plant viruses.

Abstract
The wheat curl mite (WCM) is a vector of three important wheat viruses in the U.S. Great Plains: wheat streak mosaic virus (WSMV), triticum mosaic virus (TriMV), and High Plains wheat mosaic virus (HPWMoV). This study was conducted to determine the current profile of WCM and WCM-transmitted viruses of wheat and their occurrence in Colorado, including novel wheat viruses via virome analysis. There was a high rate of virus incidence in symptomatic wheat samples collected in 2019 (95%) and 2020 (77%). Single infection of WSMV was most common in both years, followed by coinfection with WSMV + TriMV and WSMV + HPWMoV. Both type 1 and type 2 mite genotypes were found in Colorado. There was high genetic diversity of WSMV and HPWMoV isolates, whereas TriMV isolates showed minimal sequence variation. Analysis of WSMV isolates revealed novel virus variants, including one isolate from a variety trial, where severe disease symptoms were observed on wheat varieties carrying Wsm2, a known virus resistance locus. Virome analysis identified two to four sequence variants of all eight RNA segments of HPWMoV, which suggests co-occurrence of multiple genotypes within host populations and presence of a variant of HPWMoV. A possible novel virus in the family Tombusviridae and several mycoviruses were identified. Overall, the data presented here highlight the need to define the effect of novel WCM-transmitted virus variants on disease severity and the role of novel viruses.

Abstract
Yellow dwarf viruses are the most economically important and widespread viruses of cereal crops. Although they share common biological properties such as phloem limitation and obligate aphid transmission, the replication machinery and associated cis-acting signals of these viruses fall into two unrelated taxa represented by Barley yellow dwarf virus and Cereal yellow dwarf virus. Here, we explain the reclassification of these viruses based on their very different genomes. We also provide an overview of viral protein functions and their interactions with the host and vector, replication mechanisms of viral and satellite RNAs, and the complex gene expression strategies. Throughout, we point out key unanswered questions in virus evolution, structural biology, and genome function and replication that, when answered, may ultimately provide new tools for virus management.

[PMID: 36016412 PMCID: PMC9412516 DOI: 10.3390/v14081789] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2022] [Revised: 08/08/2022] [Accepted: 08/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Ubiquitination is a major post-translational modification (PTM) involved in almost all eukaryotic biological processes and plays an essential role in plant response to pathogen infection. However, to date, large-scale profiling of the changes in the ubiquitome in response to pathogens, especially viruses, in wheat has not been reported. This study aimed to identify the ubiquitinated proteins involved in Chinese wheat mosaic virus (CWMV) infection in wheat using a combination of affinity enrichment and high-resolution liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectroscopy. The potential biological functions of these ubiquitinated proteins were further analyzed using bioinformatics. A total of 2297 lysine ubiquitination sites in 1255 proteins were identified in wheat infected with CWMV, of which 350 lysine ubiquitination sites in 192 proteins were differentially expressed. These ubiquitinated proteins were related to metabolic processes, responses to stress and hormones, plant–pathogen interactions, and ribosome pathways, as assessed via Gene ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes enrichment analyses. Furthermore, we found that the ubiquitination of Ta14-3-3 and TaHSP90, which are essential components of the innate immune system, was significantly enhanced during CWMV infection, which suggested that ubiquitination modification plays a vital role in the regulatory network of the host response to CWMV infection. In summary, our study puts forward a novel strategy for further probing the molecular mechanisms of CWMV infection. Our findings will inform future research to find better, innovative, and effective solutions to deal with CWMV infection in wheat, which is the most crucial and widely used cereal grain crop.

Abstract
Poleroviruses are positive-sense, single-stranded viruses. In this study, we describe the identification of a novel polerovirus isolated from soybean displaying curled leaves. The complete viral genome sequence was identified using high-throughput sequencing and confirmed using rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE), RT-PCR and Sanger sequencing. Its genome organization is typical of the members of genus Polerovirus, containing seven putative open reading frames (ORFs). The full genome is composed of single-stranded RNA of 5822 nucleotides in length, with the highest nucleotide sequence identity (79.07% with 63% coverage) for cowpea polerovirus 2 (CPPV2). Amino acid sequence identities of the protein products between the virus and its relatives are below the threshold determined by the International Committee of Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) for species demarcation, and this strongly supports this virus’ status as a novel species, for which the name soybean chlorotic leafroll virus (SbCLRV) is proposed. Recombination analysis identified a recombination event in the ORF5 of the 3’ portion in the genome. Phylogenetic analyses of the genome and encoded protein sequences revealed that the new virus is closely related to phasey bean mild yellows virus, CPPV2 and siratro latent polerovirus. Subsequently, we demonstrated the infectivity of SbCLRV in Nicotiana benthamiana via infectious cDNA clone generation and agroinoculation.

Abstract
Pollen is a vector for viral transmission. Pollen-mediated viruses cause serious economic losses in the fruit industry. Despite the commercial importance of pollen-associated viruses, the diversity of such viruses is yet to be fully explored. In this study, we performed metatranscriptomic analyses using RNA sequencing to investigate the viral diversity in imported apple and kiwifruit pollen. We identified 665 virus-associated contigs, which corresponded to four different virus species. We identified one virus, the apple stem grooving virus, from pear pollen and three viruses, including citrus leaf blotch virus, cucumber mosaic virus, and lychnis mottle virus in kiwifruit pollen. The assembled viral genome sequences were analyzed to determine phylogenetic relationships. These findings will expand our knowledge of the virosphere in fruit pollen and lead to appropriate management of international pollen trade. However, the pathogenic mechanisms of pollen-associated viruses in fruit trees should be further investigated.

Abstract
Melon aphid-borne yellows virus (MABYV), a member of the genus Polerovirus in the family Solemoviridae, has widely spread in recent years and cause yellowing disease on cucurbits. Here, we obtained the complete genome sequence of MABYV bottle guard (Lagenaria siceraria) isolate MABYV-KF, and constructed its infectious cDNA clone under the control of the cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) 35S promoter by Gibson assembly. The 5,677 nt of its genome shared more than 94.00% sequence identity with the two known MABYV isolates. The inoculation results showed that MABYV infectious cDNA clone could systemically infect bottle guard, cucumber and muskmelon plants, and cause typical yellowing symptom. The virus progeny from the infectious clone could be transmitted between bottle guard plants by aphid. Further analyses revealed that point mutations in the F-box-like motif (Pro57) and C-terminal conserved sequence (Phe211) of P0 cause low viral accumulations in systematic leaves and failed to induce symptom. The infectious clone will be potentially a tool in the investigation of viral pathogenesis, virus-virus interaction and virus-host/-vector interactions.

Abstract
A novel wheat-infecting polerovirus, tentatively named "wheat yellow dwarf virus" (WYDV), was identified from winter wheat in China using transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) combined with RT-PCR and RACE amplification. WYDV has a single-stranded RNA genome of 5,650 nucleotides (nt) and contains seven putative open reading frames (ORFs). WYDV was found to share the highest sequence identity with cereal yellow dwarf virus RPV (CYDV-RPV, genus Polerovirus), 71.1% for the nucleotide sequence of the whole genome, and 77.3% and 70.0% for the amino acid sequences of the coat protein (CP) and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase protein (RdRp), respectively. Phylogenetic analysis based on the complete genome and CP and RdRp amino acid sequences showed that WYDV is most closely related to the cereal-infecting poleroviruses CYDV-RPV, CYDV-RPS, and barley yellow dwarf virus-GPV. These data suggest that WYDV, which is associated with a newly emerging yellow dwarf disease in wheat fields in central China, should be classified as a new member of the genus Polerovirus.

Genomic characterization of two novel viruses infecting Barleria cristata L. from the genera Orthotospovirus and Polerovirus. Arch Virol 2021; 166:2615-2618. [PMID: 34196795 DOI: 10.1007/s00705-021-05150-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2021] [Accepted: 05/06/2021] [Indexed: 01/11/2023]
Abstract
Barleria cristata L. has become naturalized in South Africa, where it is commonly used as an ornamental. In 2019, plants of B. cristata showing putative viral symptoms were collected from two locations in Gauteng, South Africa. RNAtag-seq libraries were prepared and sequenced using an Illumina HiSeq 2500 platform. De novo assembly of the resulting data revealed the presence of a novel member of the family Tospoviridae associated with the plants from both locations, and this virus was given the tentative name "barleria chlorosis-associated virus". Segments L, M, and S have lengths of 8752, 4760, and 2906 nt, respectively. Additionally, one of the samples was associated with a novel polerovirus, provisionally named "barleria polerovirus 1", with a complete genome length of 6096 nt. This is the first study to show the association of viruses with a member of the genus Barleria.

Abstract
Worldwide, barley/cereal yellow dwarf viruses (YDVs) are the most widespread and damaging group of cereal viruses. In this study, we applied high-throughput sequencing technologies (HTS) to perform a virus survey on symptomatic plants from 47 cereal fields in Estonia. HTS allowed the assembly of complete genome sequences for 22 isolates of cereal yellow dwarf virus RPS, barley yellow dwarf virus GAV, barley yellow dwarf virus PAS (BYDV-PAS), barley yellow dwarf virus PAV (BYDV-PAV), and barley yellow dwarf virus OYV (BYDV-OYV). We also assembled a near-complete genome of the putative novel species BYDV-OYV from Swedish samples of meadow fescue. Previously, partial sequencing of the central part of the coat protein gene indicated that BYDV-OYV represented a putative new species closely related to BYDV-PAV-CN, which currently is recognized as a subtype of BYDV-PAV. The present study found that whereas the 3'gene block of BYDV-OYV shares the closest relationship with BYDV-PAV-CN, the 5'gene block of BYDV-OYV shows the closest relationships to that of BYDV-PAS. Recombination detection analysis revealed that BYDV-OYV is a parental virus for both. Analysis of complete genome sequence data indicates that both BYDV-OYV and BYDV-PAV-CN meet the species criteria of genus Luteovirus. The study discusses BYDV phylogeny, and through a systematic in silico analysis of published primers for YDV detection, the existing gaps in current diagnostic practices for detection of YDVs, proposing primer pairs based on the most recent genomic information for the detection of different BYDV species. Thanks to the rising number of sequences available in databases, continuous updating of diagnostic primers can improve test specificity, e.g., inclusivity and exclusivity at species levels. This is needed to properly survey the geographical and host distribution of the different species of the YDV complex and their prevalence in cereal/barley yellow dwarf disease epidemics.

Abstract
Miscanthus sinensis is a grass used for sugarcane breeding and bioenergy production. Using high throughput sequencing technologies, we identified a new viral genome in infected M. sinensis leaf tissue displaying yellow fleck symptoms. This virus is most related to members of the genus Polerovirus in the family Luteoviridae. The canonical ORFs were computationally identified, the P3 coat protein was expressed, and virus-like particles were purified and found to conform to icosahedral shapes, characteristic of the family Luteoviridae. We propose the name Miscanthus yellow fleck virus for this new virus.

Abstract
In plants, RNA interference (RNAi) generates small interfering (si)RNAs from entire genomes of viruses, satellites and viroids. Therefore, deep small (s)RNA sequencing is a universal approach for virome reconstruction and RNAi characterization. We tested this approach on dried barley leaves from field surveys. Illumina sequencing of sRNAs from 2 plant samples identified in both plants Hordeum vulgare endornavirus (HvEV) and barley yellow mosaic bymovirus (BaYMV) and, additionally in one plant, a novel strain of Japanese soil-borne wheat mosaic furovirus (JSBWMV). De novo and reference-based sRNA assembly yielded complete or near-complete genomic RNAs of these viruses. While plant sRNAs showed broad size distribution, viral sRNAs were predominantly 21 and 22 nucleotides long with 5′-terminal uridine or adenine, and were derived from both genomic strands. These bona fide siRNAs are presumably processed from double-stranded RNA precursors by Dicer-like (DCL) 4 and DCL2, respectively, and associated with Argonaute 1 and 2 proteins. For BaYMV (but not HvEV, or JSBWMV), 24-nucleotide sRNAs represented the third most abundant class, suggesting DCL3 contribution to anti-bymovirus defence. Thus, viral siRNAs are well preserved in dried leaf tissues and not contaminated by non-RNAi degradation products, enabling both complete virome reconstruction and inference of RNAi components mediating antiviral defense.

Abstract
ORF3a, a newly identified non-AUG-initiated ORF encoded by members of genera Polerovirus and Luteovirus, is required for long-distance movement in plants. However, the mechanism of action of P3a in viral systemic movement is still not clear. In this study, sequencing of a brassica yellows virus (BrYV) mutant defective in systemic infection revealed two-nucleotide variation at positions 3406 and 3467 in the genome. Subsequent nucleotide substitution analysis proved that only the non-synonymous substitution (C→U) at position 3406, resulting in P3aP18L, abolished the systemic infection of BrYV. Preliminary investigation showed that wild type BrYV was able to load into the petiole of the agroinfiltrated Nicotiana benthamiana leaves, whereas the mutant displayed very low efficiency. Further experiments revealed that the P3a and its mutant P3aP18L localized to the Golgi apparatus and near plasmodesmata, as well as the endoplasmic reticulum. Both P3a and P3aP18L were able to self-interact in vivo, however, the mutant P3aP18L seemed to form more stable dimer than wild type. More interestingly, we confirmed firstly that the ectopic expression of P3a of other poleroviruses and luteoviruses, as well as co-infection with Pea enation mosaic virus 2 (PEMV 2), restored the ability of systemic movement of BrYV P3a defective mutant, indicating that the P3a is functionally conserved in poleroviruses and luteoviruses and is redundant when BrYV co-infects with PEMV 2. These observations provide a novel insight into the conserved function of P3a and its underlying mechanism in the systemic infection.

Abstract
A novel virus was identified in the white-backed planthopper (Sogatella furcifera, Hemiptera: Delphacidae) and tentatively named Sogatella furcifera hepe-like virus (SfHeV). Its genome is a linear, single-stranded monopartite RNA, 7,312 nucleotides (nt) long with a 66-nt 5' UTR, 54-nt 3' UTR, and 28-nt polyA, showing typical genomic features of viruses in the family Hepeviridae, but highly divergent from known members in the family, with amino acid sequence identities of only 18.9-23% (ORF1), 13.1-18.8% (ORF2) and 1.9-11% (ORF3). Phylogenetic analysis revealed that SfHeV was closer to cutthroat trout virus (CTV), but did not cluster with any members of the family. SfHeV is the first hepe-like virus identified in a hemipteran insect and was detected in all developmental stages suggesting the presence of some level of vertical transmission. On the basis of these data, we propose that SfHeV represents a novel clade in the family Hepeviridae and tentatively name the genus Insecthepevirus.

Abstract
There is little information about commensal viruses in the white-backed planthopper, Sogatella furcifera, although it is an important agricultural insect. Here, two novel double-stranded RNA viruses related to the viruses in the family Totiviridae were identified using next-generation sequencing and tentatively named Sogatella furcifera totivirus 1 and 2 (SfTV1 and SfTV2). Their complete genomes consist of 6310 and 6303 nt, respectively, showing typical genomic features with viruses in the family Totiviridae. Identity, phylogenetic and conserved sequence analyses showed that SfTV1, SfTV2 and three other insect viruses may form a proposed novel genus of the family Totiviridae. Vertical transmission of the two viruses was highly efficient, and they were detected in all insect tissues and developmental stages, with the highest titres in the adult and in the haemolymph and reproductive organs. To our knowledge, this is the first report of viruses in the family Totiviridae found in a hemipteran insect.

Abstract
A novel iflavirus, tentatively named "Sogatella furcifera honeydew virus 1" (SFHV1), discovered through transcriptome sequencing analysis of white-backed planthoppers (Sogatella furcifera) collected in southern China, is described here. The full genome of SFHV1 is 10,837 nucleotides (nt) long, including the polyA tail, and shares 65.5% and 64.5% genomic identity with Laodelphax striatellus picorna-like virus 2 and Laodelphax striatella honeydew virus 1, respectively. On the basis of the phylogenetic analysis of the complete genomic sequence and the deduced RdRp amino acid sequence of SFHV1 with other iflaviruses, we suggest that it is a member of a new species in the genus Iflavirus, family Iflaviridae.

Abstract
A new wheat viral disease was found in China. Bullet-shaped viral particles within the nucleus of the infected wheat leave cells, which possessed 180-210 nm length and 35-40 nm width, were observed under transmission electron microscopy. A putative wheat-infecting rhabdovirus vectored by the leafhopper Psammotettix alienus was identified and tentatively named wheat yellow striate virus (WYSV). The full-length nucleotide sequence of WYSV was determined using transcriptome sequencing and RACE analysis of both wheat samples and leafhoppers P. alienus. The negative-sense RNA genome of WYSV contains 14,486 nucleotides (nt) and seven open reading frames (ORFs) encode deduced proteins in the order N-P-P3-M-P6-G-L on the antisense strand. In addition, WYSV genome has a 76-nt 3' leader RNA and a 258-nt 5' trailer, and the ORFs are separated by conserved intergenic sequences. The entire genome sequence shares 58.1 and 57.7% nucleotide sequence identity with two strains of rice yellow stunt virus (RYSV-A and RYSV-B) genomes, respectively. The highest amino acid sequence identity was 63.8% between the L proteins of the WYSV and RYSV-B, but the lowest was 29.5% between the P6 proteins of these viruses. Phylogenetic analysis firmly established WYSV as a new member of the genus Nucleorhabdovirus. Collectively, this study provided evidence that WYSV is likely the first nucleorhabdovirus described infecting wheat via leafhopper P. alienus transmission.
