Abstract
Viruses cause a big fraction of economically important diseases in major crops, including tomato. In the past decade (2011–2020), many emerging or re-emerging tomato-infecting viruses were reported worldwide. In this period, 45 novel viral species were identified in tomato, 14 of which were discovered using high-throughput sequencing (HTS). In this review, we first discuss the role of HTS in these discoveries and its general impact on tomato virome research. We observed that the rate of tomato virus discovery is accelerating in the past few years due to the use of HTS. However, the extent of the post-discovery characterization of viruses is lagging behind and is greater for economically devastating viruses, such as the recently emerged tomato brown rugose fruit virus. Moreover, many known viruses still cause significant economic damages to tomato production. The review of databases and literature revealed at least 312 virus, satellite virus, or viroid species (in 22 families and 39 genera) associated with tomato, which is likely the highest number recorded for any plant. Among those, here, we summarize the current knowledge on the biology, global distribution, and epidemiology of the most important species. Increasing knowledge on tomato virome and employment of HTS to also study viromes of surrounding wild plants and environmental samples are bringing new insights into the understanding of epidemiology and ecology of tomato-infecting viruses and can, in the future, facilitate virus disease forecasting and prevention of virus disease outbreaks in tomato.

Identification and characterization of Ageratum yellow vein Malaysia virus (AYVMV) and an associated betasatellite among begomoviruses infecting Solanum lycopersicum in Malaysia. J Appl Genet 2020; 61:619-628. [PMID: 32808206 DOI: 10.1007/s13353-020-00574-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2020] [Revised: 06/06/2020] [Accepted: 08/11/2020] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
The study describes results of a survey of tomato fields for the presence of begomoviruses from different regions of Peninsular Malaysia. An ORF-based (C2 and C3) study was performed to determine the distribution of begomoviruses associated with a severe leaf curl disease in tomato-growing areas of Peninsular Malaysia. Viral DNA was isolated from symptomatic tomato plants, and begomovirus association was confirmed by PCR using DNA-A degenerate primers. The C2 and C3 sequences of the putative begomoviruses were similar to two corresponded ORFs of different geographically separated strains of begomoviruses: Pepper yellow leaf curl Indonesia virus and Tomato yellow leaf curl Kanchanaburi virus. The present study also identified a unique isolate, Ageratum yellow vein Malaysia virus (AYVMV) among above mentioned survey. It has a single-stranded DNA component and its associated betasatellite. The single-stranded DNA component is consisting of 2750 nt with six open reading frames and an organization resembling that of monopartite geminiviruses. The full length of viral single-stranded DNA component genome obtained using next generation sequencing (NGS) showed the highest sequence identity (99%) with Ageratum yellow vein virus (AYVV-BA). The betasatellite component genome obtained by NGS has 1342 nt and showed the highest sequence identity (91%) with the Pepper yellow leaf curl betasatellite. Following ICTV guidelines, Ageratum yellow vein Malaysia virus was assigned the abbreviation AYVMV with sequence and phylogenetic analysis indicating that it might have evolved by recombination of two or more viral ancestors.

Accumulation and transmission of alphasatellite, betasatellite and tomato yellow leaf curl virus in susceptible and Ty-1-resistant tomato plants. Virus Res 2018; 253:124-134. [PMID: 29908896 DOI: 10.1016/j.virusres.2018.06.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2017] [Revised: 06/13/2018] [Accepted: 06/13/2018] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Begomoviruses (family Geminiviridae) are frequently associated with alphasatellites and betasatellites in the Old World. Tomato yellow leaf curl virus, one of the most damaging begomovirus species worldwide, was recently found associated with betasatellites in the eastern coast of the Mediterranean Sea, and in the Middle East region. Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV)/betasatellite associations were shown to increase TYLCV virulence in experimental conditions. The sustainability of TYLCV/satellite associations in tomato was assessed here by estimating accumulation levels of satellites in comparison to TYLCV, vector transmission efficiency, and by testing how far the popular Ty-1 resistance gene used in most TYLCV-resistant tomato cultivars in the Mediterranean Basin is effective against betasatellites. Three satellites previously isolated from okra in Burkina Faso-of the species Cotton leaf curl Gezira betasatellite, Cotton leaf curl Gezira alphasatellite and Okra leaf curl Burkina Faso alphasatellite-were shown to accumulate at levels similar to, or higher than, the helper virus TYLCV-Mld in tomato plants from 32 to 150 days post inoculation (dpi). Cotton leaf curl Gezira betasatellite (CLCuGB) reduced TYLCV-Mld accumulation whereas alphasatellites did not. Transmission tests were performed with B. tabaci from plants infected with TYLCV-Mld/CLCuGB- or TYLCV-Mld/Okra leaf curl Burkina Faso alphasatellite. At 32 dpi, both satellites were transmitted to more than 50% of TYLCV-infected test plants. Betasatellite transmission, tested further with 150 dpi source plants was successful in more than 30% of TYLCV-infected test plants. Ty-1 resistant tomato plants co-infected with TYLCV (-Mld or -IL) and CLCuGB exhibited mild leaf curling and mosaic symptoms at the early stage of infection associated with a positive effect on TYLCV-IL accumulation, while resistant plants infected with TYLCV only, were asymptomatic. Together with previous experimental studies, these results further emphasize the potential risk of betasatellites to tomato cultivation, including with Ty-1 resistant cultivars.

Circular replication-associated protein encoding DNA viruses identified in the faecal matter of various animals in New Zealand. INFECTION GENETICS AND EVOLUTION 2016; 43:151-64.

Abstract
In recent years, innovations in molecular techniques and sequencing technologies have resulted in a rapid expansion in the number of known viral sequences, in particular those with circular replication-associated protein (Rep)-encoding single-stranded (CRESS) DNA genomes. CRESS DNA viruses are present in the virome of many ecosystems and are known to infect a wide range of organisms. A large number of the recently identified CRESS DNA viruses cannot be classified into any known viral families, indicating that the current view of CRESS DNA viral sequence space is greatly underestimated. Animal faecal matter has proven to be a particularly useful source for sampling CRESS DNA viruses in an ecosystem, as it is cost-effective and non-invasive. In this study a viral metagenomic approach was used to explore the diversity of CRESS DNA viruses present in the faeces of domesticated and wild animals in New Zealand. Thirty-eight complete CRESS DNA viral genomes and two circular molecules (that may be defective molecules or single components of multicomponent genomes) were identified from forty-nine individual animal faecal samples. Based on shared genome organisations and sequence similarities, eighteen of the isolates were classified as gemycircularviruses and twelve isolates were classified as smacoviruses. The remaining eight isolates lack significant sequence similarity with any members of known CRESS DNA virus groups. This research adds significantly to our knowledge of CRESS DNA viral diversity in New Zealand, emphasising the prevalence of CRESS DNA viruses in nature, and reinforcing the suggestion that a large proportion of CRESS DNA viruses are yet to be identified.

Abstract
Cotton leaf curl disease (CLCuD) is a serious disease of cotton on the Indian subcontinent. In the present study, three cotton leaf curl viruses, cotton leaf curl Burewala virus (CLCuBuV), cotton leaf curl Kokhran virus (CLCuKoV) and cotton leaf curl Multan virus (CLCuMV), and their associated satellites, cotton leaf curl Multan betasatellite (CLCuMB) and cotton leaf curl Multan alphasatellite (CLCuMA), were detected. CLCuBuV with either intact (CLCuBuV-1) or mutant (CLCuBuV-2) transcriptional activator protein (TrAP) were detected in different plants. Agroinoculation with CLCuBuV-1 or CLCuBuV-2 together with CLCuMB and CLCuMA, resulted in typical leaf curling and stunting of tobacco plants. Inoculation with CLCuKoV or an isolate of CLCuMV (CLCuMV-2), together with CLCuMB and CLCuMA, induced severe leaf curling, while the other isolate of CLCuMV (CLCuMV-1), which was recombinant in origin, showed mild leaf curling in tobacco. To investigate the effect of intact or mutant TrAP and also the recombination events, CLCuBuV-1, CLCuBuV-2, CLCuMV-1 or CLCuMV-2 together with the satellites (CLCuMA and CLCuMB) were transferred to cotton via whitefly-mediated transmission. Cotton plants containing CLCuBuV-1, CLCuBuV-2 or CLCuMV-2 together with satellites showed curling and stunting, whereas the plants having CLCuMV-1 and the satellites showed only mild and indistinguishable symptoms. CLCuBuV-1 (intact TrAP) showed severe symptoms in comparison to CLCuBuV-2 (mutant TrAP). The present study reveals that two types of CLCuBuV, one with an intact TrAP and the other with a mutant TrAP, exist in natural infection of cotton in India. Additionally, CLCuMuV-1, which has a recombinant origin, induces mild symptoms in comparison to the other CLCuMV isolates.

Abstract
Leaf curl disease is a serious constraint in tomato production throughout India. Several begomoviruses were reported from different parts of the country; however, identity of begomovirus associated with leaf curl disease in tomato in north-eastern states of India was obscured. In the present study, the complete genome of an isolate (To-Ag-1) of begomovirus was generated from a leaf curl sample collected from Tripura state. However, no DNA-B and betasatellite were detected in the field samples. The genome of To-Ag-1 isolate contained 2,755 nucleotides that shared 94.7 % sequence identity with Tobacco curly shoot virus (TbCSV) and 71.3-90.1 % sequence identity with the other tomato-infecting begomoviruses occurring in the Indian subcontinent. Several inter-specific recombination events among different tomato-infecting begomoviruses from India and intra-specific recombination among different isolates of TbCSV reported from China were observed in the genome of To-Ag-1 isolate. Agroinoculation of the virus alone produced leaf curl symptoms in tomato and Nicotiana benthamiana. However, co-inoculation with a non-cognate betasatellite, Croton yellow vein mosaic betasatellite (CroYVMB) with the TbCSV resulted in increased severity of the symptoms both in tomato and N. benthamiana. Systemic distribution of the TbCSV and CroYVMB was detected in the newly developed leaves of tobacco and tomato, which showed ability of TbCSV to trans-replicate CroYVMB. The present study for the first time provides evidence of occurrence of TbCSV in tomato in north-eastern region of India and showed increased virulence of TbCSV with a non-cognate betasatellite.

Abstract
Betasatellites are geminivirus-associated single-stranded DNA molecules that play an important role in symptom modulation. A VIGS vector was developed by modifying cotton leaf curl Multan betasatellite (CLCuMB). CLCuMB DNA was modified by replacing the βC1 gene with a multiple cloning site. The silencing ability of the modified CLCuMB was investigated by cloning a fragment of a host gene (Su) or a reporter transgene (uidA) into the modified CLCuMB and co-agroinoculation with cotton leaf curl Multan virus, cotton leaf curl Kokhran virus, and ageratum enation virus, separately. The inoculated Nicotiana tabacum, N. benthamiana, Solanum lycopersicum, Arabidopsis thaliana and Gossypium hirsutum plants showed efficient silencing of the cognate genes.

Abstract
UNLABELLED In contrast to begomoviruses, mastreviruses have not previously been shown to interact with satellites. This study reports the first identification of the association of satellites with a mastrevirus in field-grown plants. Two alphasatellite species were detected in different field samples of wheat infected with Wheat Dwarf India Virus (WDIV), a Cotton leaf curl Multan alphasatellite (CLCuMA) and a Guar leaf curl alphasatellite (GLCuA). In addition to the alphasatellites, a betasatellite, Ageratum yellow leaf curl betasatellite (AYLCB), was also identified in the wheat samples. No begomovirus was detected in the wheat samples, thus establishing association of the above-named satellites with WDIV. Agrobacterium-mediated inoculation of WDIV in wheat, in the presence of either of the alphasatellites or the betasatellite, resulted in infections inducing more severe symptoms. WDIV efficiently maintained each of the alphasatellites and the betasatellite in wheat. The satellites enhanced the level of WDIV DNA in wheat. Inoculation of the satellites isolated from wheat with various begomoviruses into Nicotiana tabacum demonstrated that these remain capable of interacting with the viruses with which they were first identified. Virus-specific small RNAs accumulated in wheat upon infection with WDIV but were lower in abundance in plants coinfected with the satellites, suggesting that both the alphasatellites and the betasatellite suppress RNA silencing. These results suggest that the selective advantage for the maintenance of the alphasatellites and the betasatellite by WDIV in the field is in overcoming RNA silencing-mediated host defense. IMPORTANCE Wheat is the most widely cultivated cereal crop in the world. A number of viruses are important pathogens of wheat, including the viruses of the genus Mastrevirus, family Geminiviridae. This study reports the association of subgenomic components, called satellites (alpha- and betasatellites), with a mastrevirus, Wheat Dwarf India Virus (WDIV), isolated from two distant locations in India. This study reports the first identification of the satellites in a monocot plant. The satellites enhanced accumulation of WDIV and severity of disease symptoms. The satellites lowered the concentration of virus-specific small RNAs in wheat plants, indicating their silencing suppressor activity. The involvement of the satellites in symptom severity of the mastrevirus can have implications in the form of economic impact of the virus on crop yield. Understanding the role of the satellites in disease severity is important for developing disease management strategies.
