ABSTRACT
In this study, the genomes of three Plutella xylostella granulovirus (PlxyGV) isolates, PlxyGV-W and PlxyGV-Wn from near Wuhan and PlxyGV-B from near Beijing, China were completely sequenced and comparatively analyzed to investigate genetic stability and diversity of PlxyGV. PlxyGV-W, PlxyGV-B and PlxyGV-Wn consist of 100,941bp, 100,972bp and 100,999bp in length with G + C compositions of 40.71-40.73%, respectively, and share nucleotide sequence identities of 99.5-99.8%. The three individual isolates contain 118 putative protein-encoding ORFs in common. PlxyGV-W, PlxyGV-B and PlxyGV-Wn have ten, nineteen and six nonsynonymous intra isolate nucleotide polymorphisms (NPs) in six, fourteen and five ORFs, respectively, including homologs of five DNA replication/late expression factors and two per os infectivity factors. There are seventeen nonsynonymous inter isolate NPs in seven ORFs between PlxyGV-W and PlxyGV-B, seventy three nonsynonymous NPs in forty seven ORFs between PlxyGV-W and PlxyGV-Wn, seventy seven nonsynonymous NPs in forty six ORFs between PlxyGV-B and PlxyGV-Wn. Alignment of the genome sequences of nine PlxyGV isolates sequenced up to date shows that the sequence homogeneity between the genomes are over 99.4%, with the exception of the genome of PlxyGV-SA from South Africa, which shares a sequence identity of 98.6-98.7% with the other ones. No events of gene gain/loss or translocations were observed. These results suggest that PlxyGV genome is fairly stable in nature. In addition, the transcription start sites and polyadenylation sites of thirteen PlxyGV-specific ORFs, conserved in all PlxyGV isolates, were identified by RACE analysis using mRNAs purified from larvae infected by PlxyGV-Wn, proving the PlxyGV-specific ORFs are all genuine genes.
