Characterization of a Novel Pathogenic Reovirus in Grasshoppers.

Viruses | 2022

Grasshoppers can swarm in the millions and destroy crops over wide areas, posing a major economic threat to agriculture. A wide range of insect-related viruses has recently been reported in the metagenomics of grasshoppers. Here, we identified and isolated a novel reovirus from grasshoppers, named Acrididae reovirus (ARV). The complete genome of ARV was composed of nine dsRNA segments. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that ARV formed a monophyletic lineage with unclassified insect-associated reoviruses and was sufficiently distinct from known genera of Reoviridae. ARV could replicate in its host Locusta migratoria and result in host death. Lower-dose ARV infection affected ovary development and resulted in a significant reduction in fecundity. The identification and characterization of a novel pathogenic reovirus could potentially promote the development of new biological control agents.

GenBank (tool)

RRID:SCR_002760

NIH genetic sequence database that provides annotated collection of all publicly available DNA sequences for almost 280 000 formally described species (Jan 2014) .These sequences are obtained primarily through submissions from individual laboratories and batch submissions from large-scale sequencing projects, including whole-genome shotgun (WGS) and environmental sampling projects. Most submissions are made using web-based BankIt or standalone Sequin programs, and GenBank staff assigns accession numbers upon data receipt. It is part of International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration and daily data exchange with European Nucleotide Archive (ENA) and DNA Data Bank of Japan (DDBJ) ensures worldwide coverage. GenBank is accessible through NCBI Entrez retrieval system, which integrates data from major DNA and protein sequence databases along with taxonomy, genome, mapping, protein structure and domain information, and biomedical journal literature via PubMed. BLAST provides sequence similarity searches of GenBank and other sequence databases. Complete bimonthly releases and daily updates of GenBank database are available by FTP.
