  • During the spring season of 2014, a total of 148 melon and watermelon leaf samples were collected from symptomatic and asymptomatic plants in the western and southwestern regions of Saudi Arabia and were tested for the presence of Watermelon chlorotic stunt virus (WmCSV) and other suspected cucurbit viruses by double antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. Ninety-eight samples were found to be positive for the presence of WmCSV, nine samples were positive for the presence of Cucurbit yellow stunting disorder virus (CYSDV), and 22 showed a mixed infection with both WmCSV and CYSDV. No other cucurbit viruses were detected in any of the samples. Host range experiments revealed that eight out of fourteen tested plant species were susceptible to WmCSV. PCR products of approximately 1.2 kb were obtained after amplification using primers specifically targeting the coat protein region of WmCSV. Positive PCR results were confirmed by dot blot hybridization. Coat protein gene sequences from eleven WmCSV isolates indicated that the highest identity was between the 104WMA-SA isolate from the Wadi Baish location and a previously reported isolate from the AL-Lith location in Saudi Arabia. The lowest identity was observed between the 42WMA-SA isolate and an isolate from Palestine.

  • Transformation of Fuji apple (Malus domestica 'Fuji') was performed using Agrobacterium tumefaciens harboring a coat protein (CP) gene of Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV). A plasmid DNA containing the virus CP and NPT II genes was introduced into the loaves of apple by th e Agrobacterium - mediated transformation procedure. Regenerated transformants of the apple were obtained by kanamycin resistance conferred by the introduced NPT II gene. PCR analysis showed that 3 out of 20 putatively selected R0 plant lines contain the CMV-CP gene. Nine putative transgenic lines out of 20 lines were investigated with the PCR analysis; 5 regenerants produced a 450 bp DNA band and 3 regenerants showed a 671 bp DNA band for the NPT II and CMV-CP genes, respectively. Southern hybyidization results demonstrate the successful integration of the CMV-CP gene into the genome of the apple. This is the first report on the generation of useful vius resistance source of transgenic apple for molecular breeding program.

  • Sugarcane mosaic virus (SCMV) is one of the most damaging viruses infecting sugarcane, maize and some other graminaceous species around the world. To investigate the genetic diversity of SCMV in Iran, the coat protein (CP) gene sequences of 23 SCMV isolates from different hosts were determined. The nucleotide sequence identity among Iranian isolates was more than 96%. They shared nucleotide identities of 75.5-99.9% with those of other SCMV isolates available in GenBank, the highest with the Egyptian isolate EGY7-1 (97.5-99.9%). The results of phylogenetic analysis suggested five divergent evolutionary lineages that did not completely reflect the geographical origin or host plant of the isolates. Population genetic analysis revealed greater between-group than within-group evolutionary divergence values, further supporting the results of the phylogenetic analysis. Our results indicated that natural selection might have contributed to the evolution of isolates belonging to the five identified SCMV groups, with infrequent genetic exchanges occurring between them. Phylogenetic analyses and the estimation of genetic distance indicated that Iranian isolates have low genetic diversity. No recombination was found in the CP cistron of Iranian isolates and the CP gene was under negative selection. These findings provide a comprehensive analysis of the population structure and driving forces for the evolution of SCMV with implications for global exchange of sugarcane germplasm. Gene flow, selection and somehow homologous recombination were found to be the important evolutionary factors shaping the genetic structure of SCMV populations.

  • The incidence and distribution of Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) and related tobamoviruses was determined using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay on 1,926 symptomatic horticultural crops and 107 asymptomatic weed samples collected from 78 highly infected fields in the major horticultural crop-producing areas in 17 provinces throughout Iran. The results were confirmed by host range studies and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. The overall incidence of infection by these viruses in symptomatic plants was 11.3%. The coat protein (CP) gene sequences of a number of isolates were determined and disclosed to be a high identity (up to 100%) among the Iranian isolates. Phylogenetic analysis of all known TMV CP genes showed three clades on the basis of nucleotide sequences with all Iranian isolates distinctly clustered in clade II. Analysis using the complete CP amino acid sequence showed one clade with two subgroups, IA and IB, with Iranian isolates in both subgroups. The nucleotide diversity within each subgroup was very low, but higher between the two clades. No correlation was found between genetic distance and geographical origin or host species of isolation. Statistical analyses suggested a negative selection and demonstrated the occurrence of gene flow from the isolates in other clades to the Iranian population.

  • The yeast L-A virus (4.6 kb dsRNA genome) encodes the major coat protein and a "gag-pol" fusion minor coat protein that separately encapsidate itself and $M_{1}$, a 1.8 kb dsRNA satellite virus encoding a secreted protein toxin (the killer toxin). The teast chromosomal SKI genes prevent viral cytopathology by lowering the virus copy number. Thus, $ski^{-}$ mutants are ts and cs for growth. We transformed a ski2-2 virus-infested mutant with a yeast bank in a high copy cloning vector and selected the rare healthy transformants for analysis. One type of transformant segregated M-O L-A-O cells with high frequency. Elimination of the DNA clone from the ski2-2 strain eliminated this phinotype and introduction of the DNA clone recovered from such transformants into the parent ski2-2 strain, or into ski3 or ski6 mutants gave the same phenotype. This killer-curing phenotype was due to the curing of the helper L-A dsRNA virus. The 6.5 kb insert only had this activity when carried on a high copy vector and in $ski^{-}$ cells (not in $SKI^{+}$ cells). This 6.5 kb insert acts as a mutagen on L-A dsRNA producing a high rate of deletion mutations.mutations.

  • 한국산 수박 녹반 모자이크 바이러스(CGMMV-WK)를 TR-PCR 기술에 의해서 간편하고 확실한 진단방법을 구명하고 아울러 CGMMV의 외피단백질 유전자를 클로닝 하였다. 바이러스의 추출은 Lee등 (1996)의 간이 조즙액추출법을 변형하여 정제된 핵산 추출액을 사용하여도 RT-PCR이 양호하였으며, 20 pmol의 primer, reverse transcriptase (30 unit), Rnasin (5unit)이 첨가된 PCR 반응액에서 one step reaction으로 RT-PCR이 가능하였다. CGMMV의 진단을 위한 RT-PCR 조건으로 42$^{\circ}C$에서 45분간 cDNA를 합성하고 있어서 95$^{\circ}C$ 에서 2분간 per-denaturation하고 96$^{\circ}C$ 에서 30초, 6$0^{\circ}C$ 에서 30초 그리고 72$^{\circ}C$에서 1분간으로 36 cycle을 반응을 수행함으로서 간편하고 확실하게 CGMMV를 진단할 수 있었다. 또한 추출된 CGMMV의 외피단백질의 염기서열분석 한 결과 CGMMV-W와는 98.77%, CGMMV-SH와는 99.38%의 상동성을 가지고 있었으며 아미노산 서열은 모두 100%의 상동성을 가지고 있었다.

  • 소의 Extension (E), Agouti (A) 유전자형과 모색유전양상의 연관관계를 이해하기 위해, 한우와 제주흑우(JBC), 이들 사이에서 생산된 교배후손에서 melanocortin-1 receptor (MC1R)과 agouti signaling protein (ASIP)의 유전자형을 분석하였다. 흑모색의 JBC에서는 세 가지 MC1R 대립인자들($E^D$, $E^+$, e)이 모두 발견되었다. JBC 집단은 한우에서 우점적으로 나타나는 열성동형접합자(e/e)가 발견되지 않았다. 반면, MC1R $E^+$/e 한우는 흑모색이 아닌 갈색이나 적색의 모색을 나타내었다. ASIP 유전자에서, 한우에서는 L1-BT 전위인자의 삽입/결실에 의해 세 가지 유전자형(A/A, A/$A^{Br}$, $A^{Br}/A^{Br}$)이 모두 관찰되었다. JBC 집단에서는 ASIP $A^{Br}$ 대립인자가 드물게 관찰되고, ASIP $A^{Br}/A^{Br}$ 동형접합인 개체들은 발견되지 않았다. ASIP $A^{Br}$ 대립인자를 보유하더라도 한우와 JBC, 이들의 교배후손에서도 agouti-유사 얼룩무늬 모색은 발견되지 않았다. 교배후손의 모색은 Agouti 유전자형과는 무관하고, Extension 유전자형과 직접적으로 연관되어 황-갈색(e/e)과 암-갈/흑색($E^+$/e)으로만 구분되었다. ASIP 유전자형은 아마도 한우 또는 교배 후손에서 모색의 발달에 영향이 없는 것으로 추정된다. 본 연구 결과는 한우, 제주흑우, 이들의 교배후손에서 MC1R 유전자형이 모색 표현형을 결정하며, ASIP 유전자형은 모색의 변이에는 핵심적인 역할을 수행하지 않는다는 것을 시사한다.
