New insights into temperature-impacted mycovirus-fungus interactions regulated by a microRNA in Lentinula edodes.
The onset of symptoms in virus-infected mushrooms merits investigation. In this study, the influence of heat stress (HS) on the interaction between Lentinula edodes mycovirus HKB (LeV) and its mushroom host, Lentinula edodes, was explored, revealing that HS treatment facilitated LeV replication and compromised the host's thermotolerance at full growth of mycelia. Transcriptomic analysis showed that fewer genes responded to HS, and thermotolerance-related genes were downregulated when the virus infection occurred. A host microRNA, led-milR-21, proven as a negative regulator of the growth rate, thermotolerance, and resistance against Trichoderma atroviride of L. edodes mycelia by functional analyses, could be induced by both LeV infection and HS. Tobacco transient expression experiments with qRT-PCR confirmation demonstrated that led-milR-21 targeted a thermotolerance-related transcription factor LE01Gene01783. Further analysis showed that genes associated with tryptophan metabolism, arginine and proline metabolism, valine/leucine and isoleucine degradation, protein processing in the endoplasmic reticulum, fatty acid degradation, and glycerolipid metabolism may play roles in the responses of L. edodes to LeV infection and HS. Based on these findings, a putative mechanism was proposed to elucidate the interplay among temperature, LeV, and L. edodes. This study deepens our understanding of how fruit body-forming fungi respond to viral infection and abiotic stress, providing insights into potential virus-host interactions in a scenario of global warming.IMPORTANCEThis is the first report of a fungal miRNA being induced by a mycovirus.
