First report of apple stem grooving virus infection in loquat from India.

ABSTRACT: Loquat, commonly known as Eriobotrya japonica, is a major subtropical fruit from the Rosaceae family that is native to China but also found in most of Europe and Asia, including India. Apple stem grooving virus (ASGV) infecting loquat was detected using leaf samples collected from Himachal Pradesh (India) through DAC-ELISA followed by RT-PCR assays targeting coat protein (CP), movement protein (MP) and replicase (Rep) regions of ASGV genome. Sequencing of RT-PCR amplicons and sequence analyses revealed that CP, MP and Rep sequences of ASGV loquat Indian isolate of the current study shared a maximum of 98-100% nucleotide sequence identities with the corresponding sequences of available ASGV Indian isolates [LN559078, HE978837, MZ127820, MN912568]. Phylogenetic tree based on each sequenced gene confirmed the genetic diversity of ASGV. To the best of our knowledge, and based on review of the literature, this is the first report of ASGV infection in loquat from India.

First Detection and Molecular Characterization of Apple Stem Grooving Virus, Apple Chlorotic Leaf Spot Virus, and Apple Hammerhead Viroid in Loquat in Spain.

Project description:Loquat (Eriobotrya japonica) is an important crop in Spain. To date, only one viral species, apple stem pitting virus (ASPV), has been detected in Spanish loquat orchards. In this study, the presence of additional viruses infecting this crop in Spain was investigated. RT-PCR and high-throughput sequencing (HTS) of symptomatic loquat plants led to first-time detection and characterization of apple stem grooving virus (ASGV), also known as citrus tatter leaf virus (CTLV), and apple chlorotic leaf spot virus (ACLSV) from Spain with description of nearly complete genomic sequences. The frequency of ACLSV infection was the highest, with over 30% of the samples testing positive and were also detected as coinfections with ASGV and ASPV, although most of the samples infected were symptomless. Studies on all the full-length sequences available in the databases were performed in order to establish the phylogenetic relationships of the Spanish isolates of these two viral species. Moreover, apple hammerhead viroid (AHVd) was also detected to infect loquat, the first host different from apple reported for this viroid to date.

Evolution and biogeography of apple stem grooving virus.

Project description:BackgroundApple stem grooving virus (ASGV) has a wide host range, notably including apples, pears, prunes and citrus. It is found worldwide.MethodIn this study, two near complete genomes, and seven coat protein (CP) sequences of Iranian isolates from apple were determined. Sequences added from GenBank provided alignments of 120 genomic sequences (54 of which were recombinant), and 276 coat protein genes (none of them recombinant).ResultThe non-recombinant genomes gave a well supported phylogeny with isolates from diverse hosts in China forming the base of the phylogeny, and a monophyletic clade of at least seven clusters of isolates from around the world with no host or provenace groupings among them, and all but one including isolates from China. The six regions of the ASGV genome (five in one frame, one - 2 overlapping) gave significantly correlated phylogenies, but individually had less statistical support. The largest cluster of isolates contained those from Iran and had isolates with worldwide provenances, and came from a wide range of mono- and dicotyledonous hosts. Population genetic comparisons of the six regions of the ASGV genome showed that four were under strong negative selection, but two of unknown function were under positive selection.ConclusionASGV most likely originated and spread in East Asia in one or more of various plant species, but not in Eurasia; the ASGV population of China had the greatest overall nucleotide diversity and largest number of segregating sites.

Infection of apple by apple stem grooving virus leads to extensive alterations in gene expression patterns but no disease symptoms.

Project description:To understand the molecular basis of viral diseases, transcriptome profiling has been widely used to correlate host gene expression change patterns with disease symptoms during viral infection in many plant hosts. We used infection of apple by Apple stem grooving virus (ASGV), which produces no disease symptoms, to assess the significance of host gene expression changes in disease development. We specifically asked the question of whether such asymptomatic infection is attributed to limited changes in host gene expression. Using RNA-seq, we identified a total of 184 up-regulated and 136 down-regulated genes in apple shoot cultures permanently infected by ASGV in comparison with virus-free shoot cultures. As in most plant hosts showing disease symptoms during viral infection, these differentially expressed genes encode known or putative proteins involved in cell cycle, cell wall biogenesis, response to biotic and abiotic stress, development and fruit ripening, phytohormone function, metabolism, signal transduction, transcription regulation, translation, transport, and photosynthesis. Thus, global host gene expression changes do not necessarily lead to virus disease symptoms. Our data suggest that the general approaches to correlate host gene expression changes under viral infection conditions to specific disease symptom, based on the interpretation of transcription profiling data and altered individual gene functions, may have limitations depending on particular experimental systems.

Detection and Quantification of Apple Stem Grooving Virus in Micropropagated Apple Plantlets Using Reverse-Transcription Droplet Digital PCR.

Project description:Apple stem grooving virus (ASGV) is a destructive viral pathogen of pome fruit trees that causes significant losses to fruit production worldwide. Obtaining ASGV-free propagation materials is essential to reduce economic losses, and accurate and sensitive detection methods to screen ASGV-free plantlets during in vitro propagation are urgently necessary. In this study, ASGV was sensitively and accurately quantified from in vitro propagated apple plantlets using a reverse transcription droplet digital polymerase chain reaction (RT-ddPCR) assay. The optimized RT-ddPCR assay was specific to other apple viruses, and was at least 10-times more sensitive than RT-real-time quantitative PCR assay. Furthermore, the optimized RT-ddPCR assay was validated for the detection and quantification of ASGV using micropropagated apple plantlet samples. This RT-ddPCR assay can be utilized for the accurate quantitative detection of ASGV infection in ASGV-free certification programs, and can thus contribute to the production of ASGV-free apple trees.

Loquat (Eriobotrya japonica) is a New Natural Host of Apple Stem Pitting Virus.

Project description:Loquat (Eriobotrya japonica) is a minor but important woody crop cultivated in Asia and Europe. High-throughput sequencing (HTS) analysis of an asymptomatic loquat plant using RNAseq Illumina technology has allowed the detection for the first time of apple stem pitting virus (ASPV), the type species of the genus Foveavirus in the family Betaflexiviridae, infecting this crop. A nearly complete genome of 9303 nts (ASPV-SL61) reconstructed bioinformatically shows the typical genomic structure of this viral species and a highest nucleotide identity (85.9%) with the Chinese ASPV isolate YLX from pear. A close phylogenetic relationship between ASPV-SL61 and ASPV-YLX has been confirmed by the sequence analysis of full-length ASPV genomic sequences available in the databases. In fact, a phylogenetic study based on a partial CP N-terminal sequence previously proposed to be involved in host adaptation has shown that ASPV-SL61 loquat isolate is more closely related to ASPV pear isolates. The presence of ASPV in loquat has been further confirmed by RT-PCR and Sanger sequencing and DAS-ELISA. An incidence of 15% was determined in one of the loquat Spanish growing areas. The sequence analysis of the partial CP sequences amplified by RT-PCR has shown a high level of variability between loquat isolates. To our knowledge, this is the first record of loquat as a natural host of ASPV.

Adaptation and Codon-Usage Preference of Apple and Pear-Infecting Apple Stem Grooving Viruses.

Project description:Apple stem grooving virus (ASGV; genus Capillovirus) is an economically important virus. It has an approx. 6.5 kb, monopartite, linear, positive-sense, single-stranded RNA genome. The present study includes identification of 24 isolates-13 isolates from apple (Pyrus malus L.) and 11 isolates from pear (Pyrus communis L.)-from different agricultural fields in South Korea. The coat protein (CP) gene of the corresponding 23 isolates were amplified, sequenced, and analyzed. The CP sequences showed phylogenetic separation based on their host species, and not on the geography, indicating host adaptation. Further analysis showed that the ASGV isolated in this study followed host adaptation influenced and preferred by the host codon-usage.

Compare the transcript profiling of ASGV-infected asymptomatic apple planlets (AP-Vinfect) and virus-free apple plantlets (AP-Vfree) by deep sequencing using Illumina RNA-Seq to check whether lots of genes were modulated by ASGV infection.

Rapid and Specific Detection of Apple stem grooving virus by Reverse Transcription-recombinase Polymerase Amplification.

Project description:Apple stem grooving virus (ASGV) is considered to cause the most economically important viral disease in pears in Korea. The current PCR-based methods used to diagnose ASGV are time-consuming in terms of target detection. In this study, a novel assay for specific ASGV detection that is based on reverse transcription-recombinase polymerase amplification is described. This assay has been shown to be reproducible and able to detect as little as 4.7 ng/μl of purified RNA obtained from an ASGV-infected plant. The major advantage of this assay is that the reaction for the target virus is completed in 1 min, and amplification only requires an incubation temperature of 42°C. This assay is a promising alternative method for pear breeding programs or virus-free certification laboratories.

Assessing the de novo assemblers: a metaviromic study of apple and first report of citrus concave gum-associated virus, apple rubbery wood virus 1 and 2 infecting apple in India.

Project description:BackgroundThe choice of de novo assembler for high-throughput sequencing (HTS) data remains a pivotal factor in the HTS-based discovery of viral pathogens. This study assessed de novo assemblers, namely Trinity, SPAdes, and MEGAHIT for HTS datasets generated on the Illumina platform from 23 apple samples, representing 15 exotic and indigenous apple varieties and a rootstock. The assemblers were compared based on assembly quality metrics, including the largest contig, total assembly length, genome coverage, and N50.ResultsMEGAHIT was most efficient assembler according to the metrics evaluated in this study. By using multiple assemblers, near-complete genome sequences of citrus concave gum-associated virus (CCGaV), apple rubbery wood virus 1 (ARWV-1), ARWV-2, apple necrotic mosaic virus (ApNMV), apple mosaic virus, apple stem pitting virus, apple stem grooving virus, apple chlorotic leaf spot virus, apple hammerhead viroid and apple scar skin viroid were reconstructed. These viruses were further confirmed through Sanger sequencing in different apple cultivars. Among them, CCGaV, ARWV-1 and ARWV-2 were recorded from apples in India for the first time. The analysis of virus richness revealed that ApNMV was dominant, followed by ARWV-1 and CCGaV. Moreover, MEGAHIT identified novel single-nucleotide variants.ConclusionsOur analyses highlight the crucial role of assembly methods in reconstructing near-complete apple virus genomes from the Illumina reads. This study emphasizes the significance of employing multiple assemblers for de novo virus genome assembly in vegetatively propagated perennial fruit crops.
