“…HytaNPV was closest to Biston suppressaria (formerly Buzura suppressaria ; average amino acid identity between core genes ~76.8%) NPV, though HytaNPV genome is ~19 kb larger. It is interesting to note that Biston suppressaria , a moth similar to Hyposidra talaca from the Geometridae family, is a known tea looper pest found in China, India and other parts of Asia 12 . The related host niche and the high similarity between the two viruses suggest that they both evolved from a common parent or one is the descendent of the other.…”

We sequenced the Hyposidra talaca NPV (HytaNPV) double stranded circular DNA genome using PacBio single molecule sequencing technology. We found that the HytaNPV genome is 139,089 bp long with a GC content of 39.6%. It encodes 141 open reading frames (ORFs) including the 37 baculovirus core genes, 25 genes conserved among lepidopteran baculoviruses, 72 genes known in baculovirus, and 7 genes unique to the HytaNPV genome. It is a group II alphabaculovirus that codes for the F protein and lacks the gp64 gene found in group I alphabaculovirus viruses. Using RNA-seq, we confirmed the expression of the ORFs identified in the HytaNPV genome. Phylogenetic analysis showed HytaNPV to be closest to BusuNPV, SujuNPV and EcobNPV that infect other tea pests, Buzura suppressaria, Sucra jujuba, and Ectropis oblique, respectively. We identified repeat elements and a conserved non-coding baculovirus element in the genome. Analysis of the putative promoter sequences identified motif consistent with the temporal expression of the genes observed in the RNA-seq data.

“…Although the diversity of allelopathic taxa identified to date suggests that allelopathy is a widespread competitive strategy, , the ecological roles of eicosane, tetradecanoic acid, and heptadecane identified from this study have not been previously investigated. Both 9ZOA (oleic acid) and 9ZHA (palmitoleic acid) are well-known as antimicrobial compounds and have been widely reported as allelochemicals in terrestrial plants and macrophytes. , For instance, 9ZOA is reportedly one of the allelochemicals released by Cyanobacterium apponinum and Phormidium sp . which inhibit the growth of chlorophytes ( Chlorella vulgaris Beij and Monoraphidium contortum (Thur.)…”

Sustained High Nutrient Supply As an Allelopathic Trigger between Periphytic Biofilm and Microcystis aeruginosa

Allelopathy among aquatic organisms, especially microorganisms, has received growing attention in recent years for its role in shaping interactions with bloom-forming algae. Many studies have shown that allelopathy occurs and increases under nutrient limiting conditions. However, to date there is no reported direct evidence to indicate that allelopathy occurs under the condition of constant high nutrient supply. Here we report the allelopathic action of periphytic biofilm on bloom-forming cyanobacteria (Microcystis aeruginosa), which was triggered by the stress of high nutrient conditions, and continues while nutrients are maintained at high levels (trophic state index at 159 and 171). The experimental evidence indicates that the electron transport from photosystem II (PS II) to photosystem I (PS I) in M. aeruginosa is interrupted by the identified allelochemicals, (9Z)-Octadec-9-enoic acid and (9Z)-Hexadec-9-enoic acid, leading to the failure of photosynthesis and the subsequent death of M. aeruginosa. Our findings indicate that the nutrient stress of constant high nutrient supply may be a newly recognized trigger causing allelopathy between microbial competitors, and therefore opening a new direction for the better management of ecological processes in cyanobacteria-dominated and hyper-eutrophic waters.
