Project description:Although segmented negative-sense RNA viruses (SNSRVs) have been frequently discovered in various fungi, most SNSRVs reported only the large segments. In this study, we investigated the diversity of the mycoviruses in the phytopathogenic fungus Fusarium asiaticum using the metatranscriptomic technique. We identified 17 fungal single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) viruses including nine viruses within Mitoviridae, one each in Narnaviridae, Botourmiaviridae, Hypoviridae, Fusariviridae, and Narliviridae, two in Mymonaviridae, and one trisegmented virus temporarily named Fusarium asiaticum mycobunyavirus 1 (FaMBV1). The FaMBV1 genome comprises three RNA segments, large (L), medium (M), and small (S) with 6,468, 2,639, and 1,420 nucleotides, respectively. These L, M, and S segments putatively encode the L protein, glycoprotein, and nucleocapsid, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis based on the L protein showed that FaMBV1 is phylogenetically clustered with Alternaria tenuissima negative-stranded RNA virus 2 (AtNSRV2) and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum negative-stranded RNA virus 5 (SsNSRV5) but distantly related to the members of the family Phenuiviridae. FaMBV1 could be vertically transmitted by asexual spores with lower efficiency (16.7%, 2/42). Comparison between FaMBV1-free and -infected fungal strains revealed that FaMBV1 has little effect on hyphal growth, pathogenicity, and conidium production, and its M segment is dispensable for viral replication and lost during subculture and asexual conidiation. The M and S segments of AtNSRV2 and SsNSRV5 were found using bioinformatics methods, indicating that the two fungal NSRVs harbor trisegmented genomes. Our results provide a new example of the existence and evolution of the segmented negative-sense RNA viruses in fungi. IMPORTANCE Fungal segmented negative-sense RNA viruses (SNSRVs) have been frequently found. Only the large segment encoding RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) has been reported in most fungal SNSRVs, except for a few fungal SNSRVs reported to encode nucleocapsids, nonstructural proteins, or movement proteins. Virome analysis of the Fusarium spp. that cause Fusarium head blight discovered a novel virus, Fusarium asiaticum mycobunyavirus 1 (FaMBV1), representing a novel lineage of the family Phenuiviridae. FaMBV1 harbors a trisegmented genome that putatively encodes RdRp, glycoproteins, and nucleocapsids. The putative glycoprotein was first described in fungal SNSRVs and shared homology with glycoprotein of animal phenuivirus but was dispensable for its replication in F. asiaticum. Two other trisegmented fungal SNSRVs that also encode glycoproteins were discovered, implying that three-segment bunyavirus infections may be common in fungi. These findings provide new insights into the ecology and evolution of SNSRVs, particularly those infecting fungi.
