Plant viral diseases can seriously affect the yield and quality of crops. In this work, a convenient and highly sensitive biosensor for the visual detection of plant viral disease is proposed by the PCR-induced generation of DNAzyme. In the absence of nucleic acid for a target plant virus, the primers prohibited the production of G-quadruplex by forming a hairpin structure. However, PCR amplification occurred and generated a number of specific PCR products with free G-quadruplex sequences at both ends in the presence of the target cDNA. A catalytically active G-quadruplex DNAzyme was formed with the help of K+ and hemin, resulting in the formation of colored products visible to the naked eye and a strong absorbance by the addition of ABTS2− and H2O2. The absorbance and the logarithm of target cDNA concentrations showed a good linear relationship in the range of 10 fM–1.0 nM, with a linear regression equation of A = 0.1402 lg c + 0.3761 (c: fM) and a detection limit of 0.19 fM. This method was successfully applied to the analysis of emerging tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) infections in tobacco leaf samples collected in the field due to its flexibility and convenience, indicating a potential application for the early detection of plant viral disease.

Control of plant virus diseases largely depends on the induced plant defence achieved by the external application of synthetic chemical inducers with the ability to modify defence-signalling pathways. However, most of the molecular mechanisms underlying these chemical inducers remain unknown. Here, we developed a chitosan-coated lentinan-loaded hydrogel and discovered how it protects plants from different virus infections. The hydrogel was synthesized by coating chitosan on the surface of the calcium alginate-lentinan (LNT) hydrogel (SL-gel) to form a CSL-gel. CSL-gels exhibit the capacity to prolong the stable release of lentinan and promote Ca 2+ release. Application of CSL-gels on the root of plants induces broad-spectrum resistance against plant viruses (TMV, TRV, PVX and TuMV). RNA-seq analysis identified that Nicotiana benthamiana calmodulin-like protein gene 3 ( NbCML3 ) is upregulated by the sustained release of Ca 2+ from the CSL-gel, and silencing and overexpression of NbCML alter the susceptibility and resistance of tobacco to TMV. Our findings provide evidence that this novel and synthetic CSL-gel strongly inhibits the infection of plant viruses by the sustainable release of LNT and Ca 2+ . This study uncovers a novel mode of action by which CSL-gels trigger NbCML3 expression through the stable and sustained release of Ca 2+ .

A series of novel chiral 5-(substituted aryl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives was synthesized in an enantioselective three-component Mannich reaction using cinchona alkaloid squaramide catalyst with excellent enantioselectivities (up to >99% enantiomeric excess (ee)). The bioassay results showed that these derivatives possessed good to excellent activities against tobacco mosaic virus (TMV).

The application of antiplant virus agents on leaf surfaces faces challenges due to their vulnerability to wear, instability, and limited duration, which in turn jeopardizes plant health and yield. In recent years, high-aspect-ratio nanomaterials have gained prominence as powerful carriers for disease treatment, thanks to their exceptional penetrability and precise drug delivery capabilities. Here, we synthesized a pH-responsive nanoimmune inducer (CNC-AMO) with strong leaf adhesion through a Schiff base reaction, achieved by grafting amino-oligosaccharides (AMOs) on the surface of aldehyde-based CNC (CNC–CHO). Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, zeta potential, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and elemental analysis were used to characterize the CNC-AMO. The CNC-AMO displayed the capability for pH-responsive AMO release, showcasing its potential for targeted and controlled delivery. When applied to plants, the CNC-AMO exhibited impressive anti-TMV efficacy during a weeklong observation period. Meanwhile, the CNC-AMO exhibited remarkable adhesion and scouring resistance on the surfaces of the plant leaves. We strongly believe that the synergy of environmentally friendly synthetic materials, efficient plant virus control, and streamlined scalability positions CNC-AMOs as a promising pesticide for plant virus therapy.
