Abstract
BACKGROUND Viral diseases are posing threat to annual production and quality of tobacco in China. Recently, tomato spotted wilt orthotospovirus (TSWV) has been reported to infect three major crops including tobacco. Current study was aimed to investigate the population dynamics and molecular diversity of the TSWV. In the current study, to assess and identify the prevalence and evolutionary history of TSWV in tobacco crops in China, full-length genome sequences of TSWV isolates from tobacco, were identified and analyzed. METHODS After trimming and validation, sequences of new isolates were submitted to GenBank. We identified the full-length genomes of ten TSWV isolates, infecting tobacco plants from various regions of China. Besides these, six isolates were partially sequenced. Phylogenetic analysis was performed to assess the relativeness of newly identified sequences and corresponding sequences from GenBank. Recombination and population dynamics analysis was performed using RDP4, RAT, and statistical estimation. Reassortment analysis was performed using MegaX software. RESULTS Phylogenetic analysis of 41 newly identified sequences, depicted that the majority of the Chinese isolates have separate placement in the tree. RDP4 software predicted that RNA M of newly reported isolate YNKM-2 had a recombinant region spanning from 3111 to 3811 bp. The indication of parental sequences (YNKMXD and YNHHKY) from newly identified isolates, revealed the conservation of local TSWV population. Genetic diversity and population dynamics analysis also support the same trend. RNA M was highlighted to be more capable of mutating or evolving as revealed by data obtained from RDP4, RAT, population dynamics, and phylogenetic analyses. Reassortment analysis revealed that it might have happened in L segment of TSWV isolate YNKMXD (reported herein). CONCLUSION Taken together, this is the first detailed study revealing the pattern of TWSV genetic diversity, and population dynamics helping to better understand the ability of this pathogen to drastically reduce the tobacco production in China. Also, this is a valuable addition to the existing worldwide profile of TSWV, especially in China, where a few studies related to TSWV have been reported including only one complete genome of this virus isolated from tobacco plants.

Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:15769. [PMID: 37958754 PMCID: PMC10650801 DOI: 10.3390/ijms242115769] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2023] [Revised: 10/21/2023] [Accepted: 10/27/2023] [Indexed: 11/15/2023] Open
Abstract
The external application of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) has recently been developed as a non-transgenic approach for crop protection against pests and pathogens. This novel and emerging approach has come to prominence due to its safety and environmental benefits. It is generally assumed that the mechanism of dsRNA-mediated antivirus RNA silencing is similar to that of natural RNA interference (RNAi)-based defence against RNA-containing viruses. There is, however, no direct evidence to support this idea. Here, we provide data on the high-throughput sequencing (HTS) analysis of small non-coding RNAs (sRNA) as hallmarks of RNAi induced by infection with the RNA-containing potato virus Y (PVY) and also by exogenous application of dsRNA which corresponds to a fragment of the PVY genome. Intriguingly, in contrast to PVY-induced production of discrete 21 and 22 nt sRNA species, the externally administered PVY dsRNA fragment led to generation of a non-canonical pool of sRNAs, which were present as ladders of ~18-30 nt in length; suggestive of an unexpected sRNA biogenesis pathway. Interestingly, these non-canonical sRNAs are unable to move systemically and also do not induce transitive amplification. These findings may have significant implications for further developments in dsRNA-mediated crop protection.

Abstract
Plant viruses cause nearly half of the emerging plant diseases worldwide, contributing to 10-15% of crop yield losses. Control of plant viral diseases is mainly accomplished by extensive chemical applications targeting the vectors (i.e., insects, nematodes, fungi) transmitting these viruses. However, these chemicals have a significant negative effect on human health and the environment. RNA interference is an endogenous, cellular, sequence-specific RNA degradation mechanism in eukaryotes induced by double-stranded RNA molecules that has been exploited as an antiviral strategy through transgenesis. Because genetically modified crop plants are not accepted for cultivation in several countries globally, there is an urgent demand for alternative strategies. This has boosted research on exogenous application of the RNA-based biopesticides that are shown to exhibit significant protective effect against viral infections. Such environment-friendly and efficacious antiviral agents for crop protection will contribute to global food security, without adverse effects on human health.

Abstract
To explore the novel compounds with high antiviral activity, three series ferulic acid derivatives containing amide moiety were gradually designed and synthesized based on antiviral activity tracking. The bioassay results exhibited that some target compounds had notable antiviral activities against tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) and cucumber mosaic virus (CMV). Compounds Y1, Y2, Y8, Z1 and Z2 presented splendid curative, protective, and inactivating activities to TSWV and CMV at 500 μg/mL. Especially, these compounds displayed outstanding inactivating effects on TSWV with the EC50 values of 225.9, 126.1, 224.6, 216.1, and 147.3 μg/mL, which were superior to ningnanmycin (249.1 μg/mL) and ribavirin (315.7 μg/mL). Furthermore, the antiviral mechanisms of compound Y2 were investigated by conducting microscale thermophoresis experiment and molecular docking experiment. The results suggested that compound Y2 performed excellent binding affinity to TSWV coat protein (TSWV CP) with the binding constant of 2.14 μM, which due to two strong hydrogen bonds of compound Y2 to the key amino acids ARG94 of TSWV CP. Therefore, compound Y2 can be regarded as a leading structure for development of the potential antiviral agent.

Abstract
Chilli leaf curl virus (ChiLCV; genus: Begomovirus), transmitted by Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) in a persistent-circulative manner, is a major constraint in chilli production. The present study demonstrates for the first time that a topical spray of naked double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) on chilli plants causes mortality and inability to acquire and transmit ChiLCV in B. tabaci. dsRNA targeting heat shock protein 70 (hsp70) and fasciclin 2 (fas2) of B. tabaci Asia II 1 was first assessed under controlled conditions through oral delivery. Hsp70 and fas2 dsRNA resulted in up to 82.22% and 72% mortality of B. tabaci and around 12.4- and 8.5-fold decreases in mRNA levels, respectively, 24 h post-ingestion. ChiLCV copies in hsp70 dsRNA-fed B. tabaci steadily decreased with an increase in dsRNA concentration and were undetectable at a higher concentration of dsRNA. However, ChiLCV copies significantly increased in fas2 dsRNA-fed B. tabaci. Transmission of ChiLCV by B. tabaci was completely inhibited post-24 h feeding on hsp70 dsRNA at 3 μg/mL. Naked hsp70 dsRNA was topically sprayed on ChiLCV-infected chilli plants like an insecticide. 67.77% mortality of B. tabaci, 4.6-fold downregulation of hsp70 mRNA, and 1.34 × 1015-fold decreased ChiLCV copies in B. tabaci were recorded when adults were exposed to the dsRNA-treated plants under semi-field conditions. Foliar application of naked dsRNA reduced the ChiLCV transmission by 75% without any visible symptoms in the inoculated plants. A total of 2 consecutive sprays of dsRNA provided significant protection to B. tabaci for up to 20 days under semi-field conditions.

Direct Foliar Application of dsRNA Derived From the Full-Length Gene of NSs of Groundnut Bud Necrosis Virus Limits Virus Accumulation and Symptom Expression.

Abstract
Groundnut bud necrosis virus (GBNV) is the most significant member of the genus Orthotospovirus occurring in the Indian subcontinent. There is hardly any effective measure to prevent GBNV in crop plants. In order to develop GBNV infection prevention procedure, we examined the effect of the direct foliar application of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) derived from the full-length NSs gene (1,320 nucleotides) of GBNV. The bacterially expressed dsRNA to the non-structural (dsNSs) gene of GBNV was purified and delivered to plants as an aqueous suspension containing 0.01% Celite for evaluating its efficacy in preventing GBNV infection in systemic host, Nicotiana benthamiana as well as in local lesion and systemic host, cowpea cv. Pusa Komal (Vigna unguiculata). The dsNSs application and challenge-inoculation were conducted in three different combinations, where plants were challenge-inoculated with GBNV a day after, immediately, and a day before the application of dsNSs. N. benthamiana plants, which were not treated with dsRNA showed severe systemic wilting and death by 9-16 days post-inoculation (dpi). The non-treated cowpea plants exhibited many chlorotic and necrotic lesions on the cotyledonary leaves followed by systemic necrosis and death of the plants by 14-16 dpi. The dsNSs treated plants in all the combinations showed significant reduction of disease severity index in both N. benthamiana and cowpea. The treatment combination where the GBNV inoculation was conducted immediately after the dsNSs treatment was found to be the most effective treatment in preventing symptom expression. The viral RNA analysis by real time PCR also showed 20 and 12.5 fold reduction of GBNV in cowpea and N. benthamiana, respectively. Our results suggest that the foliar application of dsRNA derived from the full-length NSs gene of GBNV through Celite is successful in delivering long dsRNA leading to effective prevention of GBNV infection.

Abstract
Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) is a plant virus with strong infectivity and destructive power. Given the lack of effective control agents, TSWV causes significant economic damage to several vegetables and ornamental plants worldwide. In this study, we designed and synthesized a series of novel quinazolinone derivatives containing a dithioacetal moiety and evaluated their antiviral activity in vitro and in vivo against TSWV. Some candidate compounds showed good anti-TSWV activity. Compound 6n shows excellent anti-TSWV activity in vivo, and the EC50 value is 188 mg/L, which is notably better than that observed for ribavirin (642 mg/L), xiangcaoliusuobingmi (420 mg/L), and ningnanmycin (257 mg/L). In addition, compound 6n interacts with TSWV coat protein at sites ARG94 and ARG95 forming four π-alkyl interactions. Compound 6n (9.4 μM) shows a better binding affinity with TSWV coat protein than ribavirin (67.8 μM), xiangcaoliusuobingmi (33.8 μM), and ningnanmycin (24.3 μM). Therefore, compound 6n can serve as a lead compound for the discovery of new antiviral agents for the management of TSWV.

Abstract
Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) is one of the most destructive diseases affecting tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) cultivation and production worldwide. As defenses against TSWV, natural resistance genes have been identified in tomato, including Sw-1a, Sw-1b, sw-2, sw-3, sw-4, Sw-5, Sw-6, and Sw-7. However, only Sw-5 exhibits a high level of resistance to the TSWV. Thus, it has been cloned and widely used in the breeding of tomato with resistance to the disease. Due to the global spread of TSWV, resistance induced by Sw-5 decreases over time and can be overcome or broken by a high concentration of TSWV. How to utilize other resistance genes and identify novel resistance resources are key approaches for breeding tomato with resistance to TSWV. In this review, the characteristics of natural resistance genes, natural resistance resources, molecular markers for assisted selection, and methods for evaluating resistance to TSWV are summarized. The aim is to provide a theoretical basis for identifying, utilizing resistance genes, and developing tomato varieties that are resistant to TSWV.

BACKGROUND Viral diseases cause significant damage to crop yield and quality. While fungi- and bacteria-induced diseases can be controlled by pesticides, no effective approaches are available to control viruses with chemicals as they use the cellular functions of their host for their infection cycle. The conventional method of viral disease control is to use the inherent resistance of plants through breeding. However, the genetic sources of viral resistance are often limited. Recently, genome editing technology enabled the publication of multiple attempts to artificially induce new resistance types by manipulating host factors necessary for viral infection. MAIN BODY In this review, we first outline the two major (R gene-mediated and RNA silencing) viral resistance mechanisms in plants. We also explain the phenomenon of mutations of host factors to function as recessive resistance genes, taking the eIF4E genes as examples. We then focus on a new type of virus resistance that has been repeatedly reported recently due to the widespread use of genome editing technology in plants, facilitating the specific knockdown of host factors. Here, we show that (1) an in-frame mutation of host factors necessary to confer viral resistance, sometimes resulting in resistance to different viruses and that (2) certain host factors exhibit antiviral resistance and viral-supporting (proviral) properties. CONCLUSION A detailed understanding of the host factor functions would enable the development of strategies for the induction of a new type of viral resistance, taking into account the provision of a broad resistance spectrum and the suppression of the appearance of resistance-breaking strains.
