摘要
Abstract Potassium (K+) plays crucial roles in both plant development and immunity. However, the function of K+ in plant–virus interactions remains largely unknown. Here, we utilized Barley yellow striate mosaic virus (BYSMV), an insect-transmitted plant cytorhabdovirus, to investigate the interplay between viral infection and plant K+ homeostasis. The BYSMV accessory P9 protein exhibits viroporin activity by enhancing membrane permeability in Escherichia coli. Additionally, P9 increases K+ uptake in yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) cells, which is disrupted by a point mutation of glycine 14 to threonine (P9G14T). Furthermore, BYSMV P9 forms oligomers and targets to both the viral envelope and the plant membrane. Based on the recombinant BYSMV–GFP (BYGFP) virus, a P9-deleted mutant (BYGFPΔP9) was rescued and demonstrated infectivity within individual plant cells of Nicotiana benthamiana and insect vectors. However, BYGFPΔP9 failed to infect barley plants after transmission by insect vectors. Furthermore, infection of barley plants was severely impaired for BYGFP-P9G14T lacking P9 K+ channel activity. In vitro assays demonstrate that K+ facilitates virion disassembly and the release of genome RNA for viral mRNA transcription. Altogether, our results show that the K+ channel activity of viroporins is conserved in plant cytorhabdoviruses and plays crucial roles in insect-mediated virus transmission.
