RNA transcribed from cloned satellite tobacco mosaic virus (STMV) cDNA replicated in Nicotiana benthamiana protoplasts when co-inoculated with tobacco mild green mosaic virus (TMGMV) genomic RNA, but degraded when inoculated alone. STMV genomic RNA extracted from wild-type virions replicated in protoplasts when co-inoculated with TMGMV, tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) or tomato mosaic virus (ToMV). Transcripts from clones of two STMV coat protein (CP) mutants accumulated to the same level as wild-type transcripts in protoplasts when co-inoculated with TMGMV, whereas a third mutant accumulated to detectable levels in some, but not all, experiments. These results confirm that STMV RNA requires helper virus for replication, and that the helper specificity exhibited by cloned STMV reflects a specific requirement for the TMGMV replicase. It also demonstrates that the low accumulation of STMV CP mutants observed previously in whole plants cannot be attributed to inefficient RNA replication.

Comprehensive transcriptomic analysis reveals turnip mosaic virus infection and its aphid vector Myzus persicae cause large changes in gene regulatory networks and co-transcription of alternative spliced mRNAs in Arabidopsis thaliana.

Background: Virus infection and herbivory can alter the expression of stress-responsive genes in plants. This study employed high-throughput transcriptomic and alternative splicing analysis to understand the separate and combined impacts on host gene expression in Arabidopsis thaliana by Myzus persicae (green peach aphid), and turnip mosaic virus (TuMV).
Results: By investigating changes in transcript abundance, the data shows that aphids feeding on virus infected plants intensify the number of differentially expressed stress responsive genes compared to challenge by individual stressors.

Plant viruses pose a significant threat to global agriculture and require efficient tools for their timely detection. We present AutoPVPrimer, an innovative pipeline that integrates artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to accelerate the development of plant virus primers. The pipeline uses Biopython to automatically retrieve different genomic sequences from the NCBI database to increase the robustness of the subsequent primer design.

Passion fruit (Passiflora edulis) is a commercially important crop known for its nutritional value, high antioxidant content, and use in beverages and desserts. Gulupa baciliform virus A (GBVA), tentatively named Badnavirus in the family Caulimoviridae, is a cryptic circular double-stranded DNA (dsDNA, ≈6,951 bps) virus recently reported in Colombia with asymptomatic infection of passion fruit (Sepúlveda et al. 2022).

Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) poses a major threat to crops like Chinese cabbage, causing significant economic losses. A viable and effective strategy to manage such diseases is by improvement of genetic-based viral resistance. To achieve this, it is important to have detailed and wide-ranging genetic resources, necessitating genetic exploration.
