The results showed that SCYLV was detected from four sugarcane varieties,and the detection rate was10. 81%; SCSMV was detected from five sugarcane varieties,and the detection rate was 13. 51%; SrM V was detected from four sugarcane varieties,and the detection rate was 10. 81%; SCMV had not been found; SCBV was detected from 27 sugarcane varieties,and the detection rate was 72. 9%. Additionally,mixed infection of different viruses was widespread,and the total mixed infection rate was 21. 62%. Thus,integrated demonstration and regional test sugarcane varieties in national sugarcane system in Guilin City had been seriously infected by viruses,and mixed infection of different viruses was common. The paper will provide a reference for breeding and popularization of antiviral sugarcane varieties.展开更多

A major quantitative trait locus, Scmvl, has been identified to impart strong resistance to SCMV at the early infection stage. Here, we demonstrate that ZmTrxh, encoding an atypical h-type thioredoxin, is the causal gene at Scmvl, and that its transcript abundance correlated strongly with maize resistance to SCMV. ZmTrxh alleles, whether they are resistant or susceptible, share the identical coding/proximal promoter regions, but vary in the upstream regulatory regions. ZmTrxh lacks two canon- ical cysteines in the thioredoxin active-site motif and exists uniquely in the maize genome. Because of this, ZmTrxh is unable to reduce disulfide bridges but possesses a strong molecular chaperone-like activity. ZmTrxh is dispersed in maize cytoplasm to suppress SCMV viral RNA accumulation. Moreover, ZmTrxh- mediated maize resistance to SCMV showed no obvious correlation with the salicylic acid- and jasmonic acid-related defense signaling pathways. Taken together, our results indicate that ZmTrxh exhibits a distinct defense profile in maize resistance to SCMV, differing from previously characterized dominant or recessive potyvirus resistance genes.展开更多
The complete sequence of a potyvirus from maize in Zhejiang Province was determined.

The RNA was 9596 nucleotides long, excluding the 3'-poly (A) tail, and there was a single long open reading frame (ORF) of 9192 nts encoding a 346.1 ku polyprotein. The polyprotein had substantial amino acid sequence homology with those encoded by the RNAs of a Chinese isolate of sorghum mosaic virus (SrMV-C) and a Bulgarian isolate of maize dwarf mosaic virus, but it was most closely related to sugarcane mosaic virus (SCMV) isolates, for which only partial sequences have been published. According to the published criteria for distinguishing potyviruses, the sequence reported here is clearly a strain of SCMV, but it also showed a surprisingly high amino acid homology with SrMV-C in the HC-Pro, P3 and Cl proteins.展开更多
