Serological and Molecular Characterization of a High Temperature-recovered Virus Belonging to Tospovirus Serogroup IV

A serologically and cytologically distinct gloxinia tospovirus (HT-1) previously isolated from a gloxinia plant infected with Impatiens necrotic spot virus (INSV) when propagated in a high-temperature environment was characterized. Rabbit antisera produced for INSV and Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) nucleocapsids (N) failed to react with HT-1 proteins in western blot analysis. The HT-1 antibodies reacted strongly with homologous antigen but failed to react with INSV and TSWV. However, the HT-1 antiserum reacted in ELISA with Watermelon silver mottle virus (WSMV) from Taiwan and in western blot analysis with the WSMV N protein. A reciprocal test showed that the antiserum prepared against the N protein of WSMV also reacted with the HT-1 N protein in both ELISA and western blot analysis. DNA probes derived from the N gene of HT-1 or WSMV hybridized to RNAs prepared from plants infected with either virus. Stronger signals were obtained with homologous than with heterologous reactions. Neither probe detected INSV or TSWV. The M and S RNAs of HT-1 were sequenced. The M RNA contains two open reading frames (ORF) ; one in the sense orientation encoding a nonstructural (NSm) protein of 308-amino-acids (aa) and the other in the ambisense orientation, a 1122-aa precursor of Gl and G2 glycoproteins. The S RNA also contains two ORFs ; one in the sense orientation encoding a nonstructural (NSs) protein of 439 aa and the other in the ambisense orientation, an N protein of 277 aa. HT-1 is distantly related to INSV and TSWV as shown by low nucleotide (40–52%) and amino acid (28–48%) similarities in the four ORF sequences. The HT-1 virus shares high nucleotide (76–81%) and amino acid (85–92%) similarities with WSMV and peanut bud necrosis virus (PBNV). Based on the serological properties and sequence data, we propose that HT-1 is a distinct species of serogroup IV in the genus Tospovirus. This is the first time that a tospovirus similar to those found in the Far East and in Southeast Asia has been identified in the US.

Identification and characterization of a tospovirus causing chlorotic ringspots on <Emphasis Type="Italic">Phalaenopsis</Emphasis> orchids

A putative virus-induced disease showing chlorotic ringspots on leaves of Phalaenopsis orchids has been observed in Taiwan for several years. A virus culture, 91-orchid-1, isolated from a Phalaenopsis orchid bearing chlorotic ringspot symptoms was established in Chenopodium quinoa and Nicotiana benthamiana, and characterized serologically and biologically. The virus reacted slightly with the antiserum of Watermelon silver mottle virus (WSMoV) but not with those of Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV), Impatiens necrotic spot virus (INSV) and Groundnut ringspot virus (GRSV). Isometric particles measuring about 70–100 nm were observed. Inoculation with isolated virus was conducted to confirm that 91-orchid-1 is the causal agent of chlorotic ringspot disease of Phalaenopsis orchids. To determine the taxonomic relationships of the virus, the conserved region of L RNA and the complete nucleocapsid gene (N gene) were cloned and sequenced. The sequence of conserved region of L RNA shares 83.8, 82.5, 64.4 and 64.9% nucleotide identities and 96.5, 97.7, 67.3 and 67.6% amino acid identities with those of Peanut bud necrosis virus (PBNV), WSMoV, TSWV and INSV, respectively, indicating that 91-orchid-1 is a tospovirus related to WSMoV. The complete nucleotide sequence of the N gene determined from a cDNA clone was found to be 828 nucleotides long encoding 275 amino acids. Sequence analyses of the N gene showed that 91-orchid-1 is an isolate of Capsicum chlorosis virus (CaCV) which has been reported to infect tomato and capsicum plants in Australia and Thailand. 91-orchid-1 is therefore designated as CaCV-Ph. To our knowledge, this is the first formal report of a tospovirus infecting Phalaenopsis orchids.     

Characterization of two Tospoviruses in Italy: tomato spotted wilt and impatiens necrotic spot

Tospovirus serogroups I and III have recently been designated as species, tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) and impatiens necrotic spot virus (INSV), while the species status of serogroup II isolates remains undefined. Fifteen Tospovirus isolates from ornamental and vegetable crops in Liguria, Italy, were found to belong either to TSWV (seven isolates) or to INSV (eight isolates) on the basis of test-plant reactions, serological techniques using DAS ELISA kits raised against the nucleoproteins of the type members of the two species, and cytopathology. None of them could be assigned to serogroup II using DAS ELISA kits raised against nucleoproteins of this serogroup. Italian isolates representative of the two species reacted in indirect ELISA using a polyclonal antiserum against the entire particle of a TSWV isolate, but with higher intensity for our TSWV isolates than for the INSV isolates. Western blots and dot immunobinding assays confirmed that the nucleoproteins of the two species are unrelated whereas the glycoproteins are related. The cytopathology was similar for two isolates representative of TSWV and INSV, except that the type of filaments encountered was different, and appeared to be characteristic of the species.     

Purification and serology of virions of impatiens necrotic spot tospovirus

Impatiens necrotic spot tospovirus (INSV) virions were purified using a procedure devised for tomato spotted wilt tospovirus (TSWV) from systemically infectedNicotiana benthamiana plants grown at 33 °C day/26 °C night and a photoperiod of 14 hours. With plants grown at 24/18 ° C purification was unsuccessful. In SDS-PAGE the protein pattern of INSV was similar to that reported for TSWV, except the appearance of a single G2 protein band. A polyclonal antiserum, prepared against virions, reacted in Western blots with INSV nucleoprotein and glycoproteins but only with TSWV glycoproteins. In DAS ELISA the antiserum reacted with both INSV and TSWV infected plant sap and, after absorption with TSWV, only with INSV. In TAS ELISA the antiserum trapped both INSV and TSWV nucleoproteins and glycoproteins as detected by specific monoclonal antibodies, and, after absorption with TSWV, only the homologous proteins. This appears to be the first report of the purification of INSV virions and the production of an antiserum reacting with both nucleoprotein and glycoprotein antigens.

First report of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Impatiens necrotic spot virus</Emphasis> infecting chrysanthemum (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Chrysanthemum morifolium</Emphasis>) in Japan

In 2009, chlorotic mottle and necrosis were observed on chrysanthemums (cv. Jimba) in Aomori Prefecture, Japan. A virus was isolated from the chrysanthemum plants by serial local-lesion transfer. The symptoms exhibited by the test plants, the particle morphology, the features of the protein and the potential for transmission by thrips were similar to those for Impatiens necrotic spot virus (INSV). The partial nucleotide sequences of the nucleocapsid protein gene and the 3′-untranslated sequence of the S RNA shared 99% identity with that of an INSV isolate. This report is the first of INSV infection of chrysanthemums in Japan.     

Serological and Molecular Characterization of Peanut chlorotic fan-spot virus, a New Species of the Genus Tospovirus

ABSTRACT To clarify the serological relationship of Peanut chlorotic fan-spot virus (PCFV) with other tospoviruses, antisera were produced against the nucleocapsid (N) proteins of this virus and tospoviruses from four serogroups including Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV), Impatiens necrotic spot virus (INSV), Groundnut ringspot virus (GRSV), and Watermelon silver mottle virus (WSMoV). In immunodiffusion tests, the antisera only reacted with their homologous antigens. Similar results were noticed in indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and immunoblot tests, with the exception that strong cross-reactions were observed in heterologous combinations between TSWV and GRSV. The results indicated that the N protein of PCFV is not serologically related to those of the tospoviruses from the four serogroups. To further characterize the virus, viral S double-stranded RNA was extracted from PCFV-infected Chenopodium quinoa and used for cDNA cloning and sequencing. The full-length viral strand of the S RNA was determined to be 2,833 nucleotides, with an inverted repeat at the 5' and 3' ends and two open reading frames in an ambisense arrangement. The 3'-terminal sequence (5'-AUUGCUCU-3') of the viral S RNA is identical to those of other tospoviruses, indicating that PCFV belongs to the genus Tospovirus. The N and the NSs proteins of PCFV share low amino acid identities (22.3 to 67.5% and 19.3 to 54.2%) with those of reported tospoviruses, respectively. The phylogenetic dendrogram of the N gene of PCFV compared with those of other tospoviruses indicates that PCFV is distinct from other tospoviruses. In hybridization analyses, an N gene cDNA probe of PCFV did not react with viral RNAs of TSWV, GRSV, INSV, and WSMoV, and vice versa. Thus, based on these results, we conclude that PCFV is a new tospovirus species.     

Ornamental plants and thrips populations associated with tomato spotted wilt virus in Greece

A survey was conducted in order to record the ornamental plants that are hosts of tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) and impatiens necrotic spot virus (INSV) in Greece. Polyclonal antibodies prepared against the N protein of a Greek isolate of TSWV fromGerbera jamesonii (GR-34) were used. Leaf samples were taken from plants showing typical symptoms of tospovirus infection such as chlorotic and necrotic rings on the leaves and malformation and necrosis of the flowers. The samples were tested by double antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (DAS-ELISA) using polyclonal antibodies to the N proteins of TSWV and INSV (NL-07). ELIS A-positive samples were mechanically transmitted to plants ofPetunia hybrida, Nicotiana rustica andN. benthamiana to confirm infection. Although none of the samples was found infected with INSV, TSWV presence was recorded in 42 botanical species that belong to 40 genera in 27 families. Among them the speciesBeloperone guttata, Coleus barbatus, Impatiens petersiana andLilium auratum are reported for the first time as hosts of TSWV, whereasBegonia sp.,Catharanthus roseus Celosia cristata, Dianthus chinensis, Fuchsia hybrida andStephanotis floribunda are found as new hosts of the virus in Greece. Thrips collected from TSWV-infected plants were in most cases identified asFrankliniella occidentalis, except from plants ofDendranthema sp. andDianthus caryophyllus whereThrips tabaci individuals were also identified. Different percentages of transmitters were noticed when the thrips populations collected from TSWV-infected ornamental hosts were tested for transmission of TSWV.     

Comparison of ambisense m RNA of watermelon silver mottle virus with other tospoviruses

ABSTRACT Double-stranded genomic RNAs (dsRNAs) extracted from Chenopodium quinoa infected with watermelon silver mottle virus (WSMV) were similar to those of tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV, serogroup I) and impatiens necrotic spot virus (INSV, serogroup III), except that the S dsRNA of WSMV is 0.75 and 0.6 kbp longer than those of TSWV and INSV, respectively. The complete nucleotide sequence of the genomic M RNA of WSMV was determined from cDNA clones generated from separated M dsRNA. The M RNA is 4,880 nucleotides in length with two open reading frames (ORFs) in an ambisense organization. The M RNA-encoded nonstructural (NSm) ORF located on the viral strand encodes a protein of 312 amino acids (35 kDa), and the G1/G2 ORF located on the viral complementary strand encodes a protein of 1,121 amino acids (127.6 kDa). The RNA probe corresponding to the NSm or G1/G2 ORF of WSMV failed to hybridize with the M dsRNAs of TSWV and INSV. Comparison of M and S RNAs of WSMV, TSWV, INSV, and peanut bud necrosis virus (PBNV, serogroup IV) revealed a consensus sequence of eight nucleotides of 5'-AGAGCAAU...-3' at their 5' ends and 5'-...AUUGCUCU-3' at their 3' ends. The low overall nucleotide identities (56.4 to 56.9%) of the M RNA and the low amino acid identities of the NSm and G1/G2 proteins (30.5 to 40.9%) with those of TSWV and INSV indicate that WSMV belongs to the Tospovirus genus but is phylogenetically distinct from viruses in serogroups I and III. The M RNA of WSMV shares a nucleotide identity of 79.6% with that of PBNV, and the two viruses share 83.4 and 88.7% amino acid identities for their NSm and G1/G2 proteins, respectively. It is concluded that they are two related but distinct species of serogroup IV. In addition to the viral or viral complementary full-length M RNA, two putative RNA messages for the NSm gene and the G1/G2 gene, 1.0 and 3.4 kb, respectively, were detected from the total RNA extracted from WSMV-infected tissue of Nicotiana benthamiana. The 1.0- and 3.4-kb RNAs were also detected in the viral RNAs extracted from purified nucleocapsids, suggesting that the putative messages of the M RNA of WSMV can also be encapsidated by the nucleocapsid protein.
