A Soilborne Virus Modifies the Root System Architecture of a Plant Host via a Single Amino Acid and Influences Nematode Transmission

Grapevine fanleaf virus (GFLV) is the main causative agent of fanleaf degeneration disease. Transmission of GFLV is exclusively accomplished by the ectoparasitic dagger nematode in a noncirculative, nonpropagative mode.

Shrnutí:Grapevine fanleaf virus (GFLV) is the main causative agent of fanleaf degeneration disease. Transmission of GFLV is exclusively accomplished by the ectoparasitic dagger nematode in a noncirculative, nonpropagative mode. Previous studies of GFLV-host interactions revealed strain- and viral amino acid-specific changes to the root system architecture (RSA) in . Here, a two-step assay first revealed the suitability of in comparison with spp. for the transmission of GFLV by . Then, a novel one-step assay revealed strain- and viral amino acid-specific differences in transmission between wild-type GFLV strains F13 and GHu and their respective mutants, with a single residue change to position 802 of the putative RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (protein 1E ). Higher transmission rates were obtained with asymptomatic mutant GFLV-GHu 1E (33.33%, 16/48) versus symptomatic wild-type GFLV-GHu (25.53%, 12/47) and with asymptomatic wild-type GFLV-F13 (75%, 30/40) versus symptomatic mutant GFLV-F13 1E (51.28%, 20/39). These results indicate that -mediated transmission is influenced by the GFLV strain and the identity of the amino acid in position 802 of protein 1E , with a glycine favoring transmission and a lysine reducing transmission. As expected, GFLV transmission was significantly correlated with differences in RSA traits, such as the number of root tips and total root length, but not with GFLV titer in or in the roots of donor plants. This is the first report of a soilborne virus modifying both the RSA of a plant host and transmission by its dagger nematode via a single viral amino acid.
