Genome Sequence Analysis of the Fungal Pathogen Fusarium graminearum Using Oxford Nanopore Technology.

Project description:Fusarium graminearum is a plant pathogen of global importance which causes not only significant yield loss but also crop spoilage due to mycotoxins that render grain unsafe for human or livestock consumption. Although the full genome of several F. graminearum isolates from different parts of the world have been sequenced, there are no similar studies of isolates originating from China. The current study sought to address this by sequencing the F. graminearum isolate FG-12, which was isolated from the roots of maize seedlings exhibiting typical symptoms of blight growing in the Gansu province, China, using Oxford Nanopore Technology (ONT). The FG-12 isolate was found to have a 35.9 Mb genome comprised of five scaffolds corresponding to the four chromosomes and mitochondrial DNA of the F. graminearum type strain, PH-1. The genome was found to contain an approximately 2.23% repetitive sequence and encode 12,470 predicted genes. Additional bioinformatic analysis identified 437 genes that were predicted to be secreted effectors, one of which was confirmed to trigger a hypersensitive responses (HR) in the leaves of Nicotiana benthamiana during transient expression experiments utilizing agro-infiltration. The F. graminearum FG-12 genome sequence and annotation data produced in the current study provide an extremely useful resource for both intra- and inter-species comparative analyses as well as for gene functional studies, and could greatly advance our understanding of this important plant pathogen.

Genome Sequences of Six SARS-CoV-2 Strains Isolated in Morocco, Obtained Using Oxford Nanopore MinION Technology.

Project description:Here, we report the draft genome sequences of six severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) strains. SARS-CoV-2 is responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic, which started at the end of 2019 in Wuhan, China. The isolates were obtained from nasopharyngeal swabs from Moroccan patients with COVID-19. Mutation analysis revealed the presence of the spike D614G mutation in all six genomes, which is widely present in several genomes around the world.

Sequencing of K60, type strain of the major plant pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum.

Project description:Ralstonia solanacearum is a widespread and destructive plant pathogen. We present the genome of the type strain, K60 (phylotype IIA, sequevar 7). Sequevar 7 strains cause ongoing tomato bacterial wilt outbreaks in the southeastern United States. K60 generally resembles R. solanacearum CFBP2957, a Caribbean tomato isolate, but has almost 360 unique genes.

Application of Oxford Nanopore Technology to Plant Virus Detection.

Project description:The adoption of Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) sequencing as a tool in plant virology has been relatively slow despite its promise in more recent years to yield large quantities of long nucleotide sequences in real time without the need for prior amplification. The portability of the MinION and Flongle platforms combined with lowering costs and continued improvements in read accuracy make ONT an attractive method for both low- and high-scale virus diagnostics. Here, we provide a detailed step-by-step protocol using the ONT Flongle platform that we have developed for the routine application on a range of symptomatic post-entry quarantine and domestic surveillance plant samples. The aim of this methods paper is to highlight ONT's feasibility as a valuable component to the diagnostician's toolkit and to hopefully stimulate other laboratories towards the eventual goal of integrating high-throughput sequencing technologies as validated plant virus diagnostic methods in their own right.

Complete genome sequence of the potato pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum UY031.

Project description:Ralstonia solanacearum is the causative agent of bacterial wilt of potato. Ralstonia solanacearum strain UY031 belongs to the American phylotype IIB, sequevar 1, also classified as race 3 biovar 2. Here we report the completely sequenced genome of this strain, the first complete genome for phylotype IIB, sequevar 1, and the fourth for the R. solanacearum species complex. In addition to standard genome annotation, we have carried out a curated annotation of type III effector genes, an important pathogenicity-related class of genes for this organism. We identified 60 effector genes, and observed that this effector repertoire is distinct when compared to those from other phylotype IIB strains. Eleven of the effectors appear to be nonfunctional due to disruptive mutations. We also report a methylome analysis of this genome, the first for a R. solanacearum strain. This analysis helped us note the presence of a toxin gene within a region of probable phage origin, raising the hypothesis that this gene may play a role in this strain's virulence.

Protein O-linked glycosylation in the plant pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum.

Project description:Ralstonia solanacearum is one of the most lethal phytopathogens in the world. Due to its broad host range, it can cause wilting disease in many plant species of economic interest. In this work, we identified the O-oligosaccharyltransferase (O-OTase) responsible for protein O-glycosylation in R. solanacearum. An analysis of the glycoproteome revealed that 20 proteins, including type IV pilins are substrates of this general glycosylation system. Although multiple glycan forms were identified, the majority of the glycopeptides were modified with a pentasaccharide composed of HexNAc-(Pen)-dHex(3), similar to the O antigen subunit present in the lipopolysaccharide of multiple R. solanacearum strains. Disruption of the O-OTase led to the total loss of protein glycosylation, together with a defect in biofilm formation and reduced pathogenicity towards tomato plants. Comparative proteomic analysis revealed that the loss of glycosylation is not associated with widespread proteome changes. Only the levels of a single glycoprotein, the type IV pilin, were diminished in the absence of glycosylation. In parallel, disruption of glycosylation triggered an increase in the levels of a surface lectin homologous to Pseudomonas PA-IIL. These results reveal the important role of glycosylation in the pathogenesis of R. solanacearum.

Project description:Ralstonia solanacearum is a causal agent of plant bacterial wilt with thousands of distinct strains in a heterogeneous species complex. Here we report the genome sequence of a phylotype IB strain, Y45, isolated from tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) in China. Compared with the published genomes of eight strains which were isolated from other hosts and habitats, 794 specific genes and many rearrangements/inversion events were identified in the tobacco strain, demonstrating that this strain represents an important node within the R. solanacearum complex.
