  • The 3,000 nucleotides of 3'-terminal region of the genomic RNA of a new isolate of carlavirus from a Korean native lily (Lilum lancitoium) was cloned and its nucleotide sequences were determined. The coat protein (CP) gene of the virus showed 72.0% to 72.8% nucleotide sequence identities and 86.9% to 88.0% amino acid sequence identities with those of the four strains (two Korean, one Dutch, and one Japanese isolates) of lily symptomless virus (LSV). Interestingly, different amino acid sequences between the new isolate and LSV strains were located at the N-terminal region of the CP. Pairwise amino acid sequence comparison of the CP gene revealed sequence identities of 22.0% to 71.1% between the virus and other 9 carlavirus species. The 25 kDa and 12 kDa proteins genes of the virus share 30.7% to 76.3% and 31.1% to 85.8% amino acid sequence identities, respectively, with those of 8 other carlaviruses. The 16 kDa protein gene of the virus shares 16.7% to 72.9% amino acid sequence identities with that of 9 other carlaviruses. These data indicate that the virus, designated as lily latent virus (LiLV), is a distinct of the Carlavirus genus and distinguished from the known strains of LSV.

  • Complete genomic nucleotide sequence of Daphe virus S (DVS), a member of the genus Carlavirus, causing leaf distortion and chlorotic spot disease symptoms in daphne plants, has been determined in this study. The genome of DVS contained six open reading fames coding for long viral replicase, triple gene block, 36 kDa viral coat protein (CP) and 12 kDa from the 5' to 3' ends, which is a typical genome structure of carlaviruses. Two Korean isolates of DVS isolates were 98.1% and 93.6% amino acid identical in the CP and 12kDa, respectively. The CP gene of DVS shares 25.2-55.2% and 42.9-56.1% similarities with that of 19 other carlaviruses at the amino acid and nucleotide levels, respectively. The 3'-proximal 12 kDa gene of DVS shares 20.2-57.8% amino acid identities with that of 18 other members of the genus. The 3' noncoding region of DVS consists of 73 nucleotides with long excluding poly A tract, and shares 69.1-77.1% identities to the known carlaviruses. In the phylogenetic analyses of the two proteins, DVS was closely related to Helenium virus S and Chrysanthemum virus B. This is the first complete sequence information for the DVS, and further confirms the classification of DVS as a distinct species of the genus Carlavirus.

  • This paper describes the cloning and sequence analysis of the 5'-terminal region and full-length cDNA production of genomic RNA of Lily symptomless virus (LSV), a Species Of the genus Carlavirus. A sing1e DNA band about 600 bp harboring the 5'-end of genomic RNA of the virus was successfully amplified by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE), and was cloned for nucleotide sequence determination. Sequence analysis of selected RACE cDNA clones revealed that the LSV 5'non-translated region consists of 67 nucleotides long of AT rich stretch followed GC rich from the 5'-end. To produce full-length cDNA products for the viral genomic RNA, a set of LSV-specific primers could be designed based on the obtained sequence in this study and the known sequences of 3'-terminal region for the virus. Full-length cDNA copies of LSV, an 8.4 kb long, were directly amplified by the long-template RT-PCR technique from the purified viral genomic RNA samples. This full-length cDNA copies were analyzed by restriction mapping. The molecules produced in this study can be useful for the production of in vitro infectious cDNA clone, as well as, for the completion of genomic RNA sequence and genome structure for the virus.

  • The Sweet potato chlorotic fleck virus (SPCFV), of the genus Carlavirus (family Betaflexiviridae), was first detected as one of several viruses infecting sweet potatoes (Ipomea batatas L.) in Korea. Out of 154 sweet potato samples collected in 2012 that were showing virus-like symptoms, 47 (31%) were infected with SPCFV, along with other viruses. The complete genome sequences of four SPCFV isolates were determined and analyzed using previously reported genome sequences. The complete genomes were found to contain 9,104-9,108 nucleotides, excluding the poly-A tail, containing six putative open reading frames (ORFs). Further, the SPCFV Korean isolates were divided into two groups (Group I and Group II) by phylogenetic analysis based on the complete nucleotide sequences; Group I and Group II had low nucleotide sequence identities of about 73%. For the first time, we determined the complete genome sequence for the Group II SPCFV isolates. The amino acid sequence identity in coat proteins (CP) between the two groups was over 90%, whereas the amino acid sequence identity in other proteins was less than 80%. In addition, SPCFV Korean isolates had a low amino acid sequence identity (61% CPs and 47% in the nucleotide-binding protein [NaBp] region) to that of Melon yellowing-associated virus (MYaV), a typical Carlavirus.

  • To understand the molecular structure and pathogenesis mechanism of Korean garlic viruses, we have isolated cDNA clones for garlic viruses. The partial nucleotide sequences of 24 cDNA clones were determined and those of five clones containing poly(A) tail were compared with sequences of other plant viruses. One of these clones, V9, has a primary structure similar to the carlavirus group, suggesting that the clone V9 derived from a part of garlic latent virus (GLV). Northern blot analysis with the clone V9 as a probe demonstrated that GLV genome is 8.5 knt long and has a poly(A) tail. The clone V9 encodes coat protein (CP) of 33 kDa and nucleic acid binding protein of 10 kDa in different reading frame. The hexanucleotide motif, 5'-ACCUAA, which is conserved in the 3' noncoding region arid was proposed to be a cis-acting element involved in the production of negative strand genomic RNA was noticed. Complementary sequence to the hexanucleotide motif, 5'-TTAGGT, is also found in the positive strand of V9 RNA. The putative CP gene was cloned into the pRSET-A expression vector and expressed in E. coli BL21. The expressed recombinant V9CP protein was purified by $Ni^{2+}$ NTA affinity chromatography. The anti-V9CP antibody recognizes 34 kDa polypeptide which could be CP of GLV in infected garlic leaf extract. Immunoblot and Northern blot analysis of various cultivars shows wide occurrence of GLV in Korean garlic plants.

  • Six viruses of the genera Carlavirus (Garlic mosaic virus, GarMV, and Garlic latent virus, GarLV), Allexivirus (Garlic virus X, GarV-X, and Garlic mite-borne filamentous virus, GarMbFV) and Potyvirus (Leek yellow stripe virus, LYSV, and Onion yellow dwarf virus, OYDV) from Korean garlic plants with mosaic symptoms were simultaneously detected by multiplex RT-PCR and subsequently sequenced. An immunocapture RT-PCR for the detection of GarLV, LYSV, and OYDV was also performed. The coat protein phylogenetic analysis of the garlic viruses showed that the Korean isolates were most closely related to the isolates from China, Japan, Brazil, and Argentina. This study is the first report for the differentiation of six garlic viruses in Korea by simultaneous detection using multiplex RT-PCR.

  • A survey of virus infection in garlic plants cultivated in Korea was conducted for three years. Most virus-infected garlic plants (Allium sativum) showed typical symptoms on the leaves such as yellow mosaic, stripes, and distortion. Through immunosorbent electron micro-scopy and RT-PCR analysis, the complex mixtures of viruses including garlic viruses of the genus Allerivirus, gaylic strain of Leek yellow stripe virus of the genus Potyvirus, and Garlic latent virus of the genus Carlavirus were identified in the virus-infected garlic plants. Among these viruses, Allexivirus was the most frequently detect-ed in the regions surveyed. Using sets of differential primers for Allexivirus genomes, two members of the genus were amplified and sequenced from the purified viruses. The deduced amino acid sequences for the coat proteins and the nucleic acid binding proteins of two viruses showed high homologies to Garlic virus A (CarV-A) and Garlic virus D (GarV-D) of Allekivirus. This is the first report of GarV-A and GarV-D in Korea. This suggests that Allexivirus in gavlic plants in Korea was mixed and varied. Phylogenetic analyses showed that the genus Allexivirus was diversi(ied by the processes of accumulation and evolution of viruses in garlic plants due to the long period of repeated vegetative propagation.
