Nucleotide Sequences of Coat Protein Genes for Three Isolates of Barley Yellow Dwarf Virus and their Relationships to Other Luteovirus Coat Protein Sequences

Journal of General Virology, 1990

Barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) can be separated into two groups based on, among other criteria, serological relationships that are presumably governed by the viral capsid structure. Nucleotide sequences for the coding regions of coat proteins of approximately 22 K were identified for the MAV-PS 1, P-PAV (group 1) and NY-RPV (group 2) isolates of BYDV, The MAV-PS1 and P-PAV coat protein sequences shared 71% deduced amino acid similarity whereas that of the NY-RPV isolate shared no more than 51% similarity with either the MAV-PSI or the P-PAV sequence. Other comparisons showed that these and other BYDV coat protein sequences examined to date share a high degree of identity with those identified from other luteoviruses. Among luteovirus coat protein sequences in general, several highly conserved domains were identified whereas other domains differentiate MAV-PSI and PAV isolates from NY-RPV and other luteoviruses. Sequence similarities and differences among BYDV coat proteins (approx, 22K) are consistent with the serological relationships exhibited by these viruses. Amino acid sequence comparisons between BYDV isolates that share common aphid vectors indicate that it is unlikely that these coat proteins are involved in aphid specificity.

Comparison of the coat protein, movement protein and RNA polymerase gene sequences of Australian, Chinese, and American isolates of barley yellow dwarf virus transmitted by Rhopalosiphum padi

Archives of Virology, 1998

Barley yellow dwarf luteovirus-GPV (BYDV-GPV) is a common problem in Chinese wheat crops but is unrecorded elsewhere. A defining characteristic of GPV is its capacity to be transmitted efficiently by both Schizaphis graminum and Rhopaloshiphum padi. This dual aphid species transmission contrasts with those of BYDV-RPV and BYDV-SGV, globally distributed viruses, which are efficiently transmitted only by Rhopaloshiphum padi and Schizaphis graminum respectively. The viral RNA sequences encoding the coat protein (22K) gene, the movement protein (17K) gene, the region surrounding the conserved GDD motif of the polymerase gene and the intergenic sequences between these genes were determined for GPV and an Australian isolate of BYDV-RPV (RPVa). In all three genes, the sequences of GPV and RPVa were more similar to those of an American isolate of BYDV-RPV (RPVu) than to any other luteovirus for which there is data available. RPVa and RPVu were very similar, especially their coat proteins which had 97% identity at the amino acid level. The coat protein of GPV had 76% and 78% amino acid identity with RPVa and RPVu respectively. The data suggest that RPVu and RPVa are correctly named as strains of the same serotype and that GPV is sufficiently different from either RPV strain to be considered a distinct BYDV type. The coat protein and movement protein genes of GPV are very dissimilar to SGV. The polymerase sequences of RPVu, RPVa and GPV show close affinities with those of the sobemo-like luteoviruses and little similarity with those of the carmo-like luteoviruses. The sequences of

Direct Detection of Transcapsidated Barley Yellow Dwarf Luteoviruses in Doubly Infected Plants

Journal of General Virology, 1990

A novel immunohybridization assay was used to analyse the virion capsid proteins and nucleic acids of various barley yellow dwarf luteoviruses from singly and doubly infected plants. Plants singly infected with New York MAV or RPV contained only viruses indistinguishable from the parental types, but plants doubly infected with these viruses contained transcapsidated virions (MAV RNA in RPV protein capsids). The presence of transcapsidated virions was positively correlated with altered aphid transmission characteristics of MAV from the same plants. Virions with phenotypically mixed capsids (chimeric capsids containing subunits from both co-infecting viruses) were not detected in these plants using heterologous and homologous ELISAs. Transcapsidated virions were detected in mixed infections of California and New York MAV and RPV isolates and, more epidemiologically significantly, in natural doubly infected field plants. In addition, evidence for two-way transcapsidation was obtained using immunohybridization and aphid transmission studies from mixed infections of New York RPV and PAV isolates.

Coat protein based molecular characterization of Barley yellow dwarf virus isolates identified on oat plants in Pakistan

– Barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) is a potential threat to the agriculture production. The amplified complete coat protein sequences of the isolate M07 and M12 were determined to be 597 bp and 603 bp, respectively. M07 showed maximum nucleotide sequence identity of 87.6% (84.3% amino acid sequence identity) to a Chinese isolate of BYDV-PAV. Whereas, the isolate M12 showed maximum nucleotide sequence identity of 94.5% (94.0% amino acid sequence identity) to French isolate BYDV-PAV. Since more than 10 % differences, among the amino acid level of any gene product, is the sole criterion to discriminate between species within the family Luteoviridae, the isolate M07 that shows maximum of 84.3% (less than 90%) amino acid sequence identity with previously known Luteovirus species, is thus, recommended to be a distinct PAV species within the genus Luteovirus.

Distribution of Cereal Luteoviruses and Molecular Diversity of BYDV-PAV Isolates in Central and Southern Iran: Proposal of a New Species in the Genus Luteovirus

Journal of Phytopathology, 2010

During a survey, 148 wheat, 70 barley and 24 wild grass samples of plants showing symptoms of yellowing or reddening of leaves and general stunting were collected in central and southern provinces of Iran and tested for Barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) and Cereal yellow dwarf virus (CYDV) infection by enzymelinked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and tissue print immunoassay (TPIA). The results showed the presence of the viruses in most regions. Positive reactions to BYDV-PAV, BYDV-MAV, CYDV-RPV and BYDV-SGV antisera were recorded. BYDV-PAV was the most prevalent virus. The genetic diversity of BYDV-PAV isolates in central and southern provinces was studied by analysing ORF1 (903 nt) and read through domain (RTD) (575 nt) of 13 and nine isolates respectively. Sequence analysis of RTD at nucleotide and amino acid levels revealed a high identity (91.8-97.2% and 91.4-100% respectively) between Iranian and other available isolates in the GenBank. However, in regards to ORF1, a high genetic diversity among Iranian and other known PAV isolates at both amino acid (2-16.9%) and nucleotide (4.1-16.5%) levels were detected. Based on phylogenetic analysis of ORF1, two major groups of BYDV-PAV isolates were distinguished. The Iranian isolates were divided between the two clusters. Our results suggest that the occurrence of two genetically distinct groups of PAV isolates in central and southern Iran, from which according to the ICTV criteria for species demarcation in the family Luteoviridae, four isolates from central parts of the country, qualify for designation as new species.

Nucleotide sequence analysis of the genomes of the MAV-PS1 and P-PAV isolates of barley yellow dwarf virus

Journal of General Virology, 1992

The MAV-PS 1 and P-PAV isolates of barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) are serologically related, but not identical. Both are transmitted by the aphid Macrosiphum avenae, but P-PAV is also transmitted by Rhopalosiphum padi. To evaluate the basis for these and other differences, overlapping clones from cDNA libraries representing the genome of each isolate were characterized by restriction enzyme digestion and by hybridization, and subsequently sequenced. Each genome has six positive strand open reading frames (ORFs) which are similar to those identified from a
