Full-Genome Sequence of Hibiscus Chlorotic Ringspot Virus from Israel
نویسندگان
چکیده
Hibiscus rosa-sinensis is one of the most prevalent ornamental plants grown in private and public gardens. Hibiscus chlorotic ringspot virus (HCRSV) is a member of the Carmovirus genus, with a positive single-strand RNA that putatively encodes seven proteins. The complete genome of the first Israeli isolate of HCRSV, HCRSV-IL, comprises 3,908 nucleotides and shows 93% nucleotide sequence identity to the Singapore isolate and 87% identity to the Taiwanese isolate.

Identification of a Plant Viral RNA Genome in the Nucleus
Viruses contain either DNA or RNA as genomes. DNA viruses replicate within nucleus, while most RNA viruses, especially (+)-sense single-stranded RNA, replicate and are present within cytoplasm. We proposed a new thought that is contrary to the common notion that (+)-sense single-stranded RNA viruses are present only in the cytoplasm. In this study, we question whether the genome of a plant RNA ...
متن کاملCloning of RPL10A from Kenaf and studies of its interactions with Hibiscus Chlorotic Ringspot Virus coat protein using yeast-two-hybrid and pull down assays
The focus of viral research in recent years have been pointed towards a better understanding of the mechanisms of plant viral infection and methods to prevent plant viral infections. Hibiscus chlorotic ringspot virus (HCRSV) coat protein (CP) is required for encapsidation and viral systemic movement. Previous studies using affinity chromatography has identified a 60S ribosomal protein L10A (RPL...
متن کاملPlant Growth Retardation and Conserved miRNAs Are Correlated to Hibiscus Chlorotic Ringspot Virus Infection
Virus infection may cause a multiplicity of symptoms in their host including discoloration, distortion and growth retardation. Hibiscus chlorotic ringspot virus (HCRSV) infection was studied using kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus L.), a non-wood fiber-producing crop in this study. Infection by HCRSV reduced the fiber yield and concomitant economic value of kenaf. We investigated kenaf growth retardat...
متن کاملHibiscus Chlorotic Ringspot Virus Coat Protein Is Essential for Cell-to-Cell and Long-Distance Movement but Not for Viral RNA Replication
Hibiscus chlorotic ringspot virus (HCRSV) is a member of the genus Carmovirus in the family Tombusviridae. In order to study its coat protein (CP) functions on virus replication and movement in kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus L.), two HCRSV mutants, designated as p2590 (A to G) in which the first start codon ATG was replaced with GTG and p2776 (C to G) in which proline 63 was replaced with alanine, ...
متن کاملTransmission, In Planta Distribution, and Management of Hibiscus latent Fort Pierce virus, a Novel Tobamovirus Isolated from Florida Hibiscus
A new tobamovirus species has been recently isolated from hibiscus (Hibiscus rosa-sinensis) in Florida (1). This Florida hibiscus virus has been given the name Hibiscus latent Fort Pierce virus (HLFPV) to reflect the site (Fort Pierce, FL) and host (hibiscus) from which it was originally isolated. A limited survey has revealed that this virus is widespread in hibiscus and related species in the...
