Small RNA Profiling of Cucurbit Yellow Stunting Disorder Virus from Susceptible and Tolerant Squash (Cucurbita pepo) Lines

RNA silencing is a crucial mechanism of the antiviral immunity system in plants. Small RNAs guide Argonaut proteins to target viral RNA or DNA, preventing virus accumulation. Small RNA profiles in Cucurbita pepo line PI 420328 with tolerance to cucurbit yellow stunting disorder virus (CYSDV) were co...

description RNA silencing is a crucial mechanism of the antiviral immunity system in plants. Small RNAs guide Argonaut proteins to target viral RNA or DNA, preventing virus accumulation. Small RNA profiles in Cucurbita pepo line PI 420328 with tolerance to cucurbit yellow stunting disorder virus (CYSDV) were compared with those in Gold Star, a susceptible cultivar. The lower CYSDV symptom severity in PI 420328 correlated with lower virus titers and fewer sRNAs derived from CYSDV (vsRNA) compared to Gold Star. Elevated levels of 21- and 22-nucleotide (nt) size class vsRNAs were observed in PI 420328, indicating more robust and efficient RNA silencing in PI 420328. The distribution of vsRNA hotspots along the CYSDV genome was similar in both PI 420328 and Gold Star. However, the 3’ UTRs, CPm, and p26 were targeted at a higher frequency in PI 420328.
