Abstract

ABSTRACTCassava mosaic disease suppresses cassava yields across the tropics. The dominant CMD2 locus confers resistance to the cassava mosaic geminiviruses. It has been reported that CMD2-type landraces lose resistance after regeneration through de novo morphogenesis. As full genome bisulfite sequencing failed to uncover an epigenetic mechanism for loss of resistance, we performed whole genome sequencing and genetic variant analysis and fine-mapped the CMD2 locus to a 190 kilobase interval. Data suggest that CMD2-type resistance is caused by a nonsynonymous, single nucleotide polymorphism in DNA polymerase δ subunit 1 (MePOLD1) located within this region. Virus-induced gene silencing of MePOLD1 in a Cassava mosaic disease-susceptible cassava variety produced a recovery phenotype typical of CMD2-type resistance. Analysis of other CMD2-type cassava varieties identified additional resistance alleles within MePOLD1. MePOLD1 resistance alleles represent important genetic resources for resistance breeding or genome editing, and elucidating mechanisms of resistance to geminiviruses.
