Abstract
A novel plant virus with a double-stranded (ds) RNA genome was detected in Lilium spp. in China by high-throughput sequencing and tentatively named "lily amalgavirus 2" (LAV2). The genomic RNA of LAV2 is 3432 nucleotides (nt) in length and contains two open reading frames (ORFs) that putatively encode a '1 + 2' fusion protein of 1053 amino acids (aa), generated by a '+1' programmed ribosomal frameshift (PRF). ORF1 encodes a putative 386-aa protein of unknown function, and ORF2 overlaps ORF1 by 350 nt and encodes a putative 783-aa protein with conserved RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) motifs. The '+1' ribosomal frameshifting motif, UUU_CGN, which is highly conserved among amalgaviruses, is also found in LAV2. Sequence analysis showed that the complete genome shared 46.04%-51.59% nucleotide sequence identity with those of members of the genus Amalgavirus and had the most similarity (51.59% sequence identity) to lily amalgavirus 1 (accession no. OM782323). Phylogenetic analysis based on RdRp amino acid sequences showed that LAV2 clustered with members of the genus Amalgavirus. Overall, our data suggest that LAV2 is a new member of the genus Amalgavirus.

Abstract
Lily (Lilium) is an important bulbous perennial herb that is frequently infected by one or more viruses. To investigate the diversity of lily viruses, lilies with virus-like symptoms in Beijing were collected to perform small RNA deep sequencing. Then, the 12 complete and six nearly full-length viral genomes, including six known viruses and two novel viruses were determined. Based on sequence and phylogenetic analyses, two novel viruses were considered to be members of the genera Alphaendornavirus (Endornaviridae) and Polerovirus (Solemoviridae). These two novel viruses were provisionally named lily-associated alphaendornavirus 1 (LaEV-1) and lily-associated polerovirus 1 (LaPV-1). Based on sequence, phylogenetic and recombination analyses, strawberry latent ringspot virus (SLRSV) in the genus Stralarivirus (Secoviridae) was identified for the first time in China, and shown to exhibit the highest nucleotide (nt) diversity among the available full-length SLRSV genome sequences, with the highest identities of 79.5% for RNA1 and 80.9% for RNA2. Interestingly, the protease cofactor region in RNA1 was 752 aa in length, whereas those of the other 27 characterized isolates ranged from 700-719 aa in length. The genome sequences of lily virus A (Potyvirus), lily virus X (Potexvirus), and plantago asiatica mosaic virus (Potexvirus) exhibited varying degrees of sequence diversity at the nucleotide level compared with their corresponding characterized isolates. In addition, plantago asiatica mosaic virus (PlAMV) tended to cluster on a host species-basis. One identified lily mottle virus (Potyvirus) isolate was detected as a recombinant, and which clustered in a different group with four other isolates. Seven identified lily symptomless virus (Carlavirus) isolates, including one recombinant, were clustered into three clades. Our results revealed the genetic diversity of lily-infecting viruses, and sequence insertion, host species and recombination are factors that likely contribute to this diversity. Collectively, our results provide useful information regarding the control of viral disease in lily.

Abstract
Lilies (Lilium spp.) are one of the most important ornamental flower crops grown in Korea. Most viral diseases in lilies are transmitted by infected bulbs, which cause serious economic losses due to reduced yields. Various diagnostic techniques and high-throughput sequencing methods have been used to detect lily viruses. According to Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT), MinION is a compact and portable sequencing device. In this study, three plant viruses, lily mottle, lily symptomless, and plantago asiatica mosaic virus, were detected in lily samples using the ONT platform. As a result of genome assembly of reads obtained through ONT, 100% coverage and 90.3-93.4% identity were obtained. Thus, we show that the ONT platform is a promising tool for the diagnosis and characterization of viruses that infect crops.

MOLECULAR PLANT PATHOLOGY 2022; 23:1401-1414.

Abstract
TAXONOMY Plantago asiatica mosaic virus belongs to the genus Potexvirus in the family Alphaflexiviridae of the order Tymovirales. VIRION AND GENOME PROPERTIES Plantago asiatica mosaic virus (PlAMV) has flexuous virions of approximately 490-530 nm in length and 10-15 nm in width. The genome of PlAMV consists of a single-stranded, positive-sense RNA of approximately 6.13 kb. It contains five open reading frames (ORFs 1-5), encoding a putative viral polymerase (RdRp), movement proteins (triple gene block proteins, TGBp1-3), and coat protein (CP), respectively. HOST RANGE PlAMV has an exceptionally wide host range and has been isolated from various wild plants, including Plantago asiatica, Nandina domestica, Rehmannia glutinosa, and other weed plants. Experimentally PlAMV can infect many plant species including Nicotiana benthamiana and Arabidopsis thaliana. It also infects ornamental lilies and frequently causes severe necrotic symptoms. However, host range varies depending on isolates, which show significant biological diversity within the species. GENOME DIVERSITY PlAMV can be separated into five clades based on phylogenetic analyses; nucleotide identities are significantly low between isolates in the different clades. TRANSMISSION PlAMV is not reported to be transmitted by biological vectors. Virions of PlAMV are quite stable and it can be transmitted efficiently by mechanical contact. DISEASE SYMPTOMS PlAMV causes red-rusted systemic necrosis in ornamental lilies, but it shows much weaker, if any, symptoms in wild plants such as P. asiatica. CONTROL Control of the disease caused by PlAMV is based mainly on rapid diagnosis and elimination of the infected bulbs or plants.

Rapid Detection of Lily mottle virus and Arabis mosaic virus Infecting Lily ( Lilium spp.) Using Reverse Transcription Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification. THE PLANT PATHOLOGY JOURNAL 2020; 36:170-178. [PMID: 32296296 PMCID: PMC7143516 DOI: 10.5423/ppj.oa.04.2019.0096] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2019] [Revised: 11/28/2019] [Accepted: 02/03/2020] [Indexed: 05/17/2023]
Abstract
The Lily mottle virus (LMoV) impedes the growth and quality of lily crops in Lanzhou, China. Recently Arabis mosaic virus (ArMV) has been detected in LMoV-infected plants in this region, causing plant stunting as well as severe foliar symptoms, and likely posing a threat to lily production. Consequently, there is a need to develop simple, sensitive, and reliable detection methods for these two viruses to prevent them from spreading. Reverse transcription (RT) loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assays have been developed to detect LMoV and ArMV using two primer pairs that match six conserved sequences of LMoV and ArMV coat proteins, respectively. RT-LAMP assay results were visually assessed in reaction tubes using green fluorescence and gel electrophoresis. Our assays successfully detected both LMoV and ArMV in lily plants without the occurrence of viral cross-reactivity from other lily viruses. Optimal conditions for LAMP reactions were 65°C and 60°C for 60 min for LMoV and ArMV, respectively. Detection sensitivity for both RT-LAMP assays was a hundredfold greater than that of our comparative RT-polymerase chain reaction assays. We have also found this relatively rapid, target specific and sensitive method can also be used for samples collected in the field and may be especially useful in regions with limited or no laboratory facilities.

Abstract
Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) is damaging to the growth and quality of lettuce crops in Lanzhou, China. Recently, however, for the first time an isolate of lettuce necrotic yellows virus (LNYV) has been detected in lettuce crops in China, and there is concern that this virus may also pose a threat to lettuce production in China. Consequently, there is a need to develop a rapid and efficient detection method to accurately identify LNYV and CMV infections and help limit their spread. Reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) assays were developed to detect the nucleoprotein (N) and coat protein (CP) genes of LNYV and CMV, respectively. RT-LAMP amplification products were visually assessed in reaction tubes separately using green fluorescence and gel electrophoresis. The assays successfully detected both viruses in infected plants without cross reactivity recorded from either CMV or LNYV or four other related plant viruses. Optimum LAMP reactions were conducted in betaine-free media with 6 mM Mg2+ at 65°C for LNYV and 60°C for 60 min for CMV, respectively. The detection limit was 3.5 pg/ml and 20 fg/ml using RT-LAMP for LNYV and CMV plasmids, respectively. Detection sensitivity for both RT-LAMP assays was greater by a factor of 100 compared to the conventional reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction assays. This rapid, specific, and sensitive technique should be more widely applied due to its low cost and minimal equipment requirements.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The lily is a perennial flowering plant belonging to the genus Lilium in the family Liliaceae. Most cultivated lily plants are propagated by bulbs. Therefore, numerous lily bulbs are frequently infected by diverse viruses causing viral diseases. To date, no study has examined the viromes of plants of one type with identical genetic backgrounds collected from different geographical regions. RESULTS Here, we examined different viromes of the lily cultivar "Sorbonne" using 172 gigabytes of transcriptome data composed of 23 libraries from four different projects for the cultivar "Sorbonne." We identified 396 virus-associated contigs from all but one library. We identified six different viruses, including Plantago asiatica mosaic virus (PlAMV), Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), Lily symptomless virus (LSV), Tulip virus X (TVX), Lily mottle virus (LMoV), and Tobacco rattle virus (TRV). Of them, PlAMV was the most common virus infecting the lily. Scale and flower samples possessed a high number of virus-associated reads. We assembled 32 nearly complete genomes for the six identified viruses possessing the polyadenylate tails. Genomes of all six viruses were highly conserved in the lily cultivar "Sorbonne" based on mutation analysis. We identified defective RNAs from LSV, TVX, and PlAMV localized in the triple gene block region. Phylogenetic analyses showed that virus genomes are highly correlated with geographical regions and host plants. CONCLUSIONS We conducted comprehensive virome analyses of a single lily cultivar, "Sorbonne," using transcriptome data. Our results shed light on an array of lily virome-associated topics, including virus identification, the dominant virus, virus accumulation in different plant tissues, virus genome assembly, virus mutation, identification of defective RNAs, and phylogenetic relationships of identified viruses. Taken together, we provide very useful methods and valuable results that can be applied in other virome-associated studies.
