During a survey conducted in vineyards in Slovenia, variety of grapevine leafroll disease symptoms were observed. Mixed infection with grapevine leafroll-associated viruses 3 and 4 (GLRaV-3, -4) in two grapevines from a vineyard in south-western part of Slovenia was confirmed by DAS-ELISA in 2010. The 3'final 1769 nucleotides of the Slovenian GLRaV-4 isolate were assembled from amplicons obtained by IC RT-PCR. The complete coat protein (CP) and p23 gene sequences were compared with other GLRaV-4 sequences from GenBank. Results showed that CP and p23 amino acid sequences of Slovenian variant (055-SI) are 88% and 85%, respectively, identical to corresponding genes of reference sequence GLRaV-4 LR106 (GenBank Acc. No. FJ467503). Phylogenetic analyses show that Slovenian variant clusters together with other corresponding strains of GLRaV-4. The sequencing results show great variability of the N-terminal part of the CP sequence indicating that this part of the genome is not suitable for molecular detection of the virus. To our knowledge this is also the first report of GLRaV-4 in Slovenian vineyards.

Article Synopsis
- RNA silencing is a key defense mechanism in plants against viral infections, but viruses like apple stem grooving virus (ASGV) use RNA-silencing suppressors (RSSs) to counteract this defense.
- The helicase motif of ASGV's replicase functions as an RSS by inhibiting RNA silencing, but the pear transcription factor PbRAV1 can reduce its effectiveness by binding to it and decreasing its ability to bind siRNA.
- PbRAV1 also impacts another RSS from a different virus, demonstrating its dual role in defending against viral infections, while ASGV can manipulate other host proteins to enhance its own suppressive activity.

Grapevine leafroll-associated virus 3 (GLRaV-3) is the most prevalent and economically damaging virus in grapevines and is found on nearly all continents, except Antarctica. Ten mealybugs act as vector insects transmitting the GLRaV-3. Understanding the potential distribution range of vector insects under climate change is crucial for preventing and managing vector insects and controlling and delaying the spread of GLRaV-3.
