Genetic variation analysis of apple chlorotic leaf spot virus coat protein reveals a new phylogenetic type and two recombinants in China

Abstract: In this study, we generated sequences of the apple chlorotic leaf spot virus (ACLSV) coat protein (CP) gene. Genetic variation and phylogenetic analyses were carried out on these sequences along with others reported previously. ACLSV populations clustered into four types: in three of the four types, combinations of three amino acids at positions of 40, 75 and 79 were conserved. The fourth phylogenetic type, newly identified here, was characterized by co-variation of Ser(40)-Tyr(75)-Ser(79). Statistically signi… Show more

“…Recombination is a powerful evolutionary driving force that results in the generation of new genotypes in RNA viruses [85,86]. Recombination events have been previously reported in RNA viruses in the family Betaflexiviridae and Closteroviridae [79,84,87,88] and in this study, multiple recombination events were identified amongst Australian isolates of ACLSV, CGRMV, CVA, LChV1, LChV2 and PBNSPaV. All the Australian recombinant isolates shared similar phylogenetic groupings with their major parental sequence which indicates close genetic connectivity within the population of these recombinants.…”

“…These authors also showed that co-variable aa positions 40 and 75 were critical for effective viral replication. Other multiple aa alignments showed another covariation in the ACLSV CP at position 79, among 55 Chinese apple ACLSV isolates (Chen et al 2013). Brazilian isolates showed conserved signatures of type B6 isolates at positions 40, 59, 75, 130 and 184, that places them with type B6 isolates, except for isolates M220 (apple) and PR1 (plum), which appear to be variants of the type B6 isolates.…”

“…The regions of highest genetic variation in the ACLSV CP appear to vary considerably. They have been observed in the N-terminal (German et al 1990) and the middle portion of the CP gene (Rana et al 2010;Chen et al 2013). Nucleotide diversity (π) was analyzed throughout the length of the coat protein gene of ACLSV (Fig.…”

“…Though no recombination hotspot was found, recombination events play an important role in ASGV evolution as reported recombination in cp gene (Negi et al, 2010). Moreover, recombination might be common in members of Betaflexiviridae as detected in a few reports (Singh et al, 2007(Singh et al, , 2008(Singh et al, , 2012Komorowska et al, 2011;Singh et al, 2012;Dhir et al, 2013;Pramesh and Baranwal, 2013;Alabi et al, 2014;Chen et al, 2014). As no vector is known for ASGV and it can be transmitted by grafting, recombinant events among isolates from different host species and countries, and phylogenetic clusters with no correlation to host or geographical origins are likely to be the result of vegetative propagation and exchanges of propagation materials between countries.…”
