High-throughput sequencing revealed the symptomatic common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) virome in Iran.

ABSTRACT: Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is a crop rich in protein, minerals, and starch. Viruses are a significant limiting factor in increasing the production of legumes, particularly common beans. Accurate and timely detection of plant viruses is essential for minimizing disease damage and ensuring food security. To investigate common bean field viruses in Iran, 300 samples of common bean plants showing viral-like symptoms were collected over 3 years, 2020, 2021, and 2022. This study is the first to use total RNA-seq for a virome analysis of common beans in Iran. The results of the total RNA-seq indicated that the common bean samples were infected with sesame curly top virus (SeCTV), beet curly top Iran virus (BCTIV), tomato leaf curl Palampur virus (ToLCPalV), cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), b
