Complete Sequence Analysis of Grapevine Leafroll-Associated Virus 4 and Interactions Between the Encoded Proteins.

ABSTRACT: Grapevine leafroll disease is one of the most devastating diseases in the global viticulture industry. Grapevine leafroll-associated virus 4 is one of the main pathogens causing this disease. In this study, we obtained the complete genome sequences of two Chinese isolates of GLRaV-4 from 'Baisainie' and 'Fantasy Seedless' grapevines through high-throughput sequencing and overlapping RT-PCR combined with RACE technology. The sequences contain 13,814 and 13,824 nucleotides and code six open reading frames, respectively. Phylogenetic trees based on the coat protein (CP) and heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) genes show that in addition to other GLRaV-4 strains (strains 5, 6, 9, Pr, and Car), the GLRaV-4 strains were divided into two distinct groups. The two isolates obtained in this study were cla
