Abstract
Virus infections cause devastative economic losses for various plant species, and early diagnosis and prevention are the most effective strategies to avoid the losses. Exploring virus genomic evolution and constructing virus infectious cDNA clones is essential to achieve a deeper understanding of the interaction between host plant and virus. Therefore, this work aims to guide people to better prevent, control, and utilize the youcai mosaic virus (YoMV). Here, the YoMV was found to infect the Solanum nigrum under natural conditions. Then, an infectious cDNA clone of YoMV was successfully constructed using triple-shuttling vector-based yeast recombination. Furthermore, we established phylogenetic trees based on the complete genomic sequences, the replicase gene, movement protein gene, and coat protein gene using the corresponding deposited sequences in NCBI. Simultaneously, the evolutionary relationship of the YoMV discovered on S. nigrum to others was determined and analyzed. Moreover, the constructed cDNA infectious clone of YoMV from S. nigrum could systematically infect the Nicotiana benthamiana and S. nigrum by agrobacterium-mediated infiltration. Our investigation supplied a reverse genetic tool for YoMV study, which will also contribute to in-depth study and profound understanding of the interaction between YoMV and host plant.
