Complete Genome Sequences of Peach Latent Mosaic Viroid from a Single Peach Cultivar
نویسندگان
چکیده
Peach latent mosaic viroid (PLMVd) is a member of the genus Pelamoviroid in the family Avsunviroidae and infects peach trees. We de novo assembled a PLMVd genome from a peach transcriptome and identified 18 variants in a single peach cultivar, after sequencing 20 PLMVd genomes by Sanger sequencing.

Study of the polymerization step of the rolling circle replication of peach latent mosaic viroid Brief Report
We have developed an in vitro transcriptional assay using Escherichia coli RNA polymerase to initiate the replication of peach latent mosaic viroid (PLMVd). Regardless of the polarity of the PLMVd strand used as template, initiation in vitro occurred at the same hairpin structure. These initiation sites correspond to the 5′-ends of two small (280 nt) PLMVd-related RNAs found in infected peach l...
متن کاملGenomic structure of new Tunisian peach latent mosaic viroid variants.
Peach latent mosaic viroid (PLMVd) is a single-stranded circular RNA that do not code for proteins and ranges in size from 335 to 351 nucleotides. It mainly infects peach. In this study, the sequence of 20 complete cDNA clones derived from seven PLMVd isolates detected in five Tunisian peach cultivars was analysed in 3 steps: primary structure, phylogeny and secondary structure. The analysis of...
متن کاملMolecular features of new Peach Latent Mosaic Viroid variants suggest that recombination may have contributed to the evolution of this infectious RNA.
Nucleotide sequences of a broad range of Peach Latent Mosaic Viroid (PLMVd) variants were determined. The variants were isolated from peach, pear, and almond tree samples collected in Tunisia. Sequence analysis confirmed the high variability of PLMVd, as no less than 119 new variants were identified. Variations included new polymorphic positions, insertions of 11 to 14 nucleotides, and new muta...
متن کاملThe RNA of both polarities of the peach latent mosaic viroid self-cleaves in vitro solely by single hammerhead structures.
Hammerhead self-cleavage of dimeric, monomeric, truncated and mutated transcripts derived from both polarities of the peach latent mosaic viroid (PLMVd) were characterized. In contrast to some results previously published for a very close sequence variant (see ref. 1), these RNAs exhibit a virtually identical self-cleavage during transcription and after purification. By self-cleavage of dimeric...
متن کاملSequencing of peach latent mosaic viroid variants from nine North American peach cultivars shows that this RNA folds into a complex secondary structure.
We sequenced 34 new peach latent mosaic viroid (PLMVd) variants isolated from nine different peach cultivars. This study provides the widest view of PLMVd diversity reported to date and includes the original characterization of North American variants, which cannot be differentiated from European sequences. PLMVd appears as a species in which each isolate is a complex mixture of RNAs. Analysis ...
