A Carica papaya plant with severe yellow leaf mosaic, leaf distortion, and systemic necrosis was found in the municipality of Piracicaba, state of São Paulo, Brazil. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis revealed the presence of potyvirus-like particles and bacilliform particles similar to those of the Alfamovirus genus. The potyvirus was identified as Papaya ringspot virus-type P (PRSV-P). Biological, serological, and molecular studies confirmed the bacilliform virus as an isolate of Alfalfa mosaic virus (AMV). Partial nucleotide and amino acid sequences of the coat protein gene of this AMV isolate shared 97–98% identity with the AMV isolates in the GenBank database. This report is the first of the natural infection of papaya plants by AMV.  相似文献

Transgenic Nicotiana benthamiana plants expressing the coat protein of an aphid-transmissible strain of plum pox potyvirus (PPV-D) were infected with an aphid non-transmissible strain of another potyvirus, zucchini yellow mosaic potyvirus (ZYMV-NAT). Non-viruliferous Myzus persicae could acquire and transmit ZYMV-NAT from these plants but not from infected N. benthamiana control plants (not transformed, or transformed by the vector alone). Immunosorbent electron microscopy experiments using the decoration technique revealed that ZYMV-NAT virus particles in the infected transgenic plants expressing the PPV coat protein could be coated not only with ZYMV antibodies but also, on segments of the particles, with PPV antibodies. This suggests that aphid transmission of ZYMV-NAT occurred through heterologous encapsidation, and reveals a potential risk of releasing genetically engineered plants expressing viral coat proteins into the environment.  相似文献

Commercial tobacco cultivars BB16 (burley) and PBD6 (dark air cured) were transformed with the coat protein gene of lettuce mosaic potyvirus (LMV). Transgenic BB16 plants showed resistance to potato virus Y (PVY) infection, against the necrotic strain PVY-N Versailles, as well as the resistance breaking necrotic strain PVY-N 107. Transgenic PBD6, which carries the recessive va gene conferring resistance to PVY, was also protected against PVY-N 107. In the progenies of most BB16 and PBD6 transformants, 45% to 100% of the inoculated plants were immune to PVY infection. The rest of the plants were tolerant, with atypical attenuated non necrotic symptoms and reduced virus accumulation. No recovery was observed in the tolerant plants, which stably expressed detectable level of LMV coat protein. This suggested a protein-mediated mechanism of heterologous protection.  相似文献

The 3026 nucleotides upstream of the 3-polyadenylated tract of a mite transmitted virus fromHordeum murinum L. were cloned and sequenced, and portions of the sequence were expressed inEscherichia coli. Sequence comparisons with wheat streak mosaic virus (WSMV), Agropyron mosaic virus (AgMV) and Hordeum mosaic cirus (HoMV), three mite transmitted potyviruses, and potato virus Y (PVY), the type member of the genusPotyvirus, revealed that the virus is probably a potyvirus, but distinct from WSMV, AgMV, HoMV, and PVY. Serological tests further demonstrated these differences and that the virus is serologically related to another potyvirus, brome streak mosaic virus (BrSMV). We conclude that the virus should be named as the Hordeum isolate of BrSMV.  相似文献

Characterization of a new potyvirus isolated from peanut (Arachis hypogaea)   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
During a survey of viruses of peanuts in South Africa a mechanically transmissible virus was isolated from a plant exhibiting chlorotic ringspots and blotches on the leaves. Typical potyvirus-like flexuous particles were detected by electron microscope examination. Pinwheel-shaped and laminated inclusions in ultrathin sections, reaction with a monoclonal antibody directed to a potyvirus common epitope, a single 33 kDa coat protein and aphid transmission using Myzus persicae all confirmed that the virus was a subdivision II member of the Potyviridae. Host range studies suggested that the virus was none of the previously reported potyviruses of peanuts or of subdivision II potyviruses. The serological relationships of the virus were studied using a range of 17 antisera to potyviruses in ELISA and immunosorbent electron microscopy (ISEM). The isolate reacted weakly with antisera to plum pox virus and bean yellow mosaic virus in ISEM only. Nucleotide sequence of a 624 bp DNA product was obtained following immuno-capture with a potyvirus common epitope antiserum, cDNA synthesis and PCR amplification with potyvirus specific primers which amplify the 3' untranslated region and a part of the coat protein gene. The sequence was only distantly related to a number of potyviruses, whether amino acid or nucleotide sequences were used for comparisons. It is proposed that the virus be named peanut chlorotic blotch virus and be accepted as a new member of the genus Potyvirus in the family Potyviridae.  相似文献

A putative virus-induced disease showing chlorotic spots on leaves of Phalaenopsis orchids was observed in central Taiwan. A virus culture, phalaenopsis isolate 7-2, was isolated from a diseased Phalaenopsis orchid and established in Chenopodium quinoa and Nicotiana benthamiana. The virus reacted with the monoclonal antibody (POTY) against the potyvirus group. Potyvirus-like long flexuous filament particles around 12–15 × 750–800 nm were observed in the crude sap and purified virus preparations, and pinwheel inclusion bodies were observed in the infected cells. The conserved region of the viral RNA was amplified using the degenerate primers for the potyviruses and sequence analysis of the virus isolate 7-2 showed 56.6–63.1% nucleotide and 44.8–65.1% amino acid identities with those of Bean yellow mosaic virus (BYMV), Beet mosaic virus (BtMV), Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) and Bean common mosaic virus (BCMV). The coat protein (CP) gene of isolate 7-2 was amplified, sequenced and found to have 280 amino acids. A homology search in GenBank indicated that the virus is a potyvirus but no highly homologous sequence was found. The virus was designated as Phalaenopsis chlorotic spot virus (PhCSV) in early 2006. Subsequently, a potyvirus, named Basella rugose mosaic virus isolated from malabar spinach was reported in December 2006. It was found to share 96.8% amino acid identity with the CP of PhCSV. Back-inoculation with the isolated virus was conducted to confirm that PhCSV is the causal agent of chlorotic spot disease of Phalaenopsis orchids in Taiwan. This is the first report of a potyvirus causing a disease on Phalaenopsis orchids.  相似文献

ABSTRACT A new virus was isolated from symptomless Aconitum napellus plants. The virus, for which the name Aconitum latent virus (AcLV) is proposed, has flexuous particles 640 nm in length. The experimental host range was limited to Nicotiana clevelandii. Electron microscopy studies of ultrathin sections of infected A. napellus tissues revealed the presence of elongated virus particles. No inclusion bodies characteristic of potyvirus infection were observed. AcLV was purified from naturally infected A. napellus by cesium chloride step gradient centrifugation. In sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of dissociated purified virus preparations, a major protein component with a molecular mass of 35 kDa was observed. Diagnostic antibodies that could specifically bind to virus particles were produced. The 5' terminus (620 nucleotides) of the viral RNA was cloned and sequenced. It comprised 71 nucleotides from the untranslated 5' terminus and 549 nucleotides of an open reading frame encoding 183 amino acids. Comparison of the predicted amino acid sequence with those of other plant viruses revealed 40 to 60% identity with several carlaviruses. Based on particle morphology, absence of inclusion bodies in ultrathin sections, the relative molecular weight of the coat protein, the nucleotide sequence, and predicted amino acid homology, it is suggested that this virus belongs to the carlavirus group.  相似文献

Sixteen isolates of Chinese yam necrotic mosaic virus (ChYNMV) were collected from nine sites in Japan and one site in Korea, and 1098 nucleotides of the 3-terminal of the genome were sequenced. Identity of the coat protein gene was 95.5%–99.7% among the isolates. Substitution in the deduced amino acids of the coat protein ranged from 0 to 7, mainly in the N-terminal region. The 3-untranslated region consisted of 231 nucleotides, which had 96.5%–100% nucleotide identity among the isolates. Sequence diversity was considerably less in ChYNMV than in Yam mosaic virus or Japanese yam mosaic virus.  相似文献

 A potyvirus, for which the name Japanese hornwort mosaic virus (JHMV) is proposed, was isolated from Japanese hornwort plants (Cryptotaenia japonica) with mosaic disease symptoms. The virus was used to inoculate mechanically 34 plants belonging to 33 species of 10 families. Of these species seven from two families were infected. Faint chlorotic spots appeared on the inoculated leaves of Chenopodium quinoa and C. amaranticolor, but no systemic infection occurred in these plants. JHMV systemically infected only Umbelliferae plants; they did not infect 26 other species in eight families. JHMV was transmitted in a nonpersistent manner by aphids (Myzus persicae). The virus was a flexuous rod-shaped particle about 750 nm in length. Sequencing the nucleotides in the 3′ terminal region of JHMV revealed that the coat protein contains 280 amino acids with a molecular mass of 32.2 kDa. The nucleotide sequence of the coat protein of JHMV had the highest similarity with that of Zantedeschia mosaic virus (83.3%) compared to those of other potyviruses (57.0%–64.9%). An antiserum against JHMV reacted strongly with JHMV and weakly with Potato virus Y. These results indicate that JHMV is a new potyvirus. Received: September 9, 2002 / Accepted: November 7, 2002 RID="*" ID="*" The nucleotide sequence determined in this work appears in the DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank nucleotide sequence databases with the accession number AB081518  相似文献

Serological analysis (ELISA, immunoblotting, and immunoelectron microscopy) of the partially purified virus preparations obtained from shallot plants (selection sample no. 83) inoculated with the Mongolian isolate of onion yellow dwarf potyvirus (OYDV) revealed neither an OYDV coat protein antigen nor virions decorated by the corresponding antiserum. At the same time, these preparations contained many flexuous filamentous virus particles (FFVP) with a modal length of 780 nm. It is suggested that shallot no. 83 is resistant at least to the Mongolian isolate of OYDV, while the discovered FFVPs are the virions of some other viral agent. The nature and origin of a new virus are now under study in this laboratory  相似文献

Host Range and Characterization of Sunflower mosaic virus   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
ABSTRACT Sunflower mosaic is caused by a putative member of the family Potyviridae. Sunflower mosaic virus (SuMV) was characterized in terms of host range, physical and biological characteristics, and partial nucleotide and amino acid sequence. Cells infected with SuMV had cytoplasmic inclusion bodies typical of potyviruses. Of 74 genera tested, only species in Helianthus, Sanvitalia, and Zinnia, all Asteraceae, were systemic hosts. Commercial sunflower hybrids from the United States, Europe, and South Africa were all equally susceptible. The mean length of purified particles is approximately 723 nm. The virus was transmitted by Myzus persicae and Capitphorus elaegni, and also was seedborne in at least one sunflower cultivar. Indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay tests with a broad-spectrum potyvirus monoclonal antibody were strongly positive. SuMV-specific polyclonal antisera recognized SuMV and, to a lesser extent, Tobacco etch virus (TEV). When tested against a panel of 31 potyvirus-differentiating monoclonal antibodies, SuMV was distinct from any potyvirus previously tested. SuMV shared four epitopes with TEV, but had a reaction profile more similar to Tulip breaking virus (TBV). SuMV did not possess epitopes unique only to TBV. The predicted coat protein had a molecular weight of 30.5 kDa. The 3' end of the virus genome was cloned and sequenced. Phylogenetic analysis of the coat protein amino acid sequence revealed that SuMV is a distinct species within the family Potyviridae, most closely related to TEV.  相似文献

A phage library containing 2.7 × 109 randomly expressed peptides was used to determine the epitopes of three monoclonal antibodies that bind to the coat protein of potato virus Y. Construction of the consensus sequences for the peptides obtained after three selection rounds indicated that each antibody recognized a different epitope located within the first 50 N-terminal amino acids of the coat protein. The location of the epitopes was confirmed by heterologous expression of the N-terminal part of the coat protein in Escherichia coli, and, subsequently, by performing an immunological test with the three antibodies. The accuracy of the phage library was demonstrated by predicting in silico the cross-reactivity of the three antibodies with other potyvirus family members. ELISA and in silico predictions revealed the same results in almost every case. The potential of peptide phage libraries to optimize the use of antibodies in plant virology is discussed.  相似文献

A potyvirus (eggplant mottle virus, EMoV) causing mosaic mottling in eggplant ( Solanum melongena ) was characterized on the basis of biological, serological and partial nucleotide sequence properties. EMoV infected Chenopodium amaranticolor and members of the Solanaceae. Polyclonal antiserum against EMoV showed antigenic relationship with henbane mosaic potyvirus (HMV) and potato Y potyvirus (PVY). Virus-specific antibodies directed to the N-terminal region of EMoV cross-reacted only with PVY. Determination and comparison of nucleotide sequence of the coat protein (CP) and the 3'-untranslated region (UTR) of EMoV with other potyviruses showed that the level of homology was highest with PVY isolates. Comparative sequence analyses of the CP amino acid and 3'-UTR sequences with distinct PVY isolates placed EMoV within the PVYO subgroup.  相似文献

Alstroemeria samples collected in the UK were tested for a range of viruses using ELISA. Alstroemeria mosaic virus (AlMV), alstroemeria carlavirus (AlCV), lily symptomless virus (LSV), cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) and tobacco rattle virus (TRV) were detected either singly or in combination in 67.5% of 203 samples. AlCV and LSV isolates from Alstroemeria and lily were studied and characterised serologically using existing antisera, and by PCR, using primers to an 11kDa open reading frame (ORF) unique to carlaviruses and to the coat protein gene of LSV. Sequences of isolates of AlCV and LSV from the coat protein gene were 94–99% similar and were 99% similar in the 11kDa ORF, supporting the view that these are strains of the same virus.  相似文献

The molecular variability in the DNA-A of cassava-begomoviruses, East African cassava mosaic virus (EACMV), East African cassava mosaic virus – Uganda variant (EACMV-UG), African cassava mosaic virus (ACMV), and East African cassava mosaic Zanzibar virus (EACMZV) in Kenya, Uganda, and Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) was investigated. Most samples from western Kenya, Uganda, and eastern DRC contained EACMV-UG. Fewer than half of the samples had a mixed infection of ACMV and EACMV-UG, and a small percentage had only ACMV infections. EACMV and EACMZV were the only begomoviruses detected in samples from the Kenyan coast. The coat protein gene nucleotide (nt) and the deduced amino acid sequence analyses revealed a high degree of sequence identity within each virus type and that EACMV-UG was most related to ACMV. However, analysis of the retrieved complete DNA-A (2781–2801nt) sequences of selected virus types revealed that EACMV-UG DNA-A share more than 90% identity with EACMV and less than 80% with ACMV, confirming that the virus is a strain of EACMV.  相似文献

The worldwide distribution of Sugarcane yellow leaf virus (SCYLV) has led several research groups to study the function of the viral genome, the role of open reading frames (ORFs), their influence on virus accumulation and methods for diagnosis. The detection of SCYLV is usually based on the viral coat protein whether using serological and/or molecular techniques. In this study, ORF0 has been used as a diagnostic segment for SCYLV due to its highly conserved region in all SCYLV isolates. The results revealed that, ORF0 was expressed more consistently in all cultivars. In contrast, the expression of the coat protein varied. The RNA poleroviruses sequences of ORF0 were variable compared with the same segment of SCYLV populations. Analysis of the amino acid sequence of the ORF0 translation product revealed the presence of a potential transmembrane domain. The relatively high content of hydrophobic amino acids in the ORF0 protein further suggests that it may serve as a membrane anchor for the replication complex.  相似文献

Barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV)-PAV isolates from USA have been separated into two distinct clusters (Chay et al. (1996) Virology 219: 57–65; Chay et al. (1996) Phytopathology 86: 370–377). Following this finding we have shown that BYDV-PAV is divided into two groups cpA and cpB based on their coat protein gene sequence, and distinct host preferences (Mastari et al. (1998) Phytopathology 88: 818–821). We have sequenced the complete 3 half of the genomes of two lethal and two mild cpA isolates and compared them with those of several known PAV cpA isolates to assess variability and locate potential determinants of severity. Open reading frames (ORFs) 3, 4, 5, 6 and the 3 untranslated regions had different percent homologies between isolates: ORF5 (92–97%), ORF3 (88–98%) 3-translational enhancer (87–100%) ORF4 (85–99%), 3 untranslated region (72–97%) and ORF6 (61–99%). In contrast to the mild isolates, the field-lethal isolates (FHv1 and FHv2) fell into the same cluster, regardless of the genomic region analysed. The isolates FHv1 and FHv2 differed from mild isolates by eight amino acid substitutions in ORFs 3 and 4, and insertions in ORF5. Four amino acid substitutions in the 17-kDa protein encoded by ORF4 caused a change in local net charge in the field-lethal isolates. Two insertions of four amino acids were identified in the C-terminal half of ORF5 of the field-lethal isolates, but were not present systematically in all lethal isolates analysed. The potential relationships of these differences in predicted amino acid sequences to disease severity are discussed.  相似文献

A disease of borage ( Borago officinalis ) in Spain, characterized by severe mosaic and deformation of the leaves, was shown to be caused by a potyvirus. The borage-infecting potyvirus was characterized biologically by the symptoms induced in 23 indicator species and was shown to be transmitted experimentally by the aphid Myzus persicae in a non-persistent manner. In order to classify the borage-infecting potyvirus we have cloned and sequenced the entire coat protein gene and 3' non-coding region of the viral RNA. By comparing this nucleotide sequence with those of other members of the Potyviridae , we can identify the Spanish borage-infecting potyvirus as an isolate of clover yellow vein virus (CYVV), a virus so far only known to cause important diseases in forage legumes. This is the first record of CYVV in Spain and of CYVV infecting a natural host of the Boraginaceae.  相似文献
