Abstract

The analysis by high throughput sequencing (HTS) and RT-PCR of Spanish pomegranate fruits showing yellow rings revealed the presence of viroid isolates closely related to fig isolates of apple dimple fruit viroid (ADFVd). The analysis of pomegranate public RNASeq data (Sequence Reads Archives, SRAs) from Israel provided evidence for the presence of similar ADFVd isolates in pomegranate trees in this country. In addition, reads or contigs of plum viroid I (PVd-I) isolates were also identified in two of the analyzed SRA datasets from Israel, suggesting the presence of this second viroid in pomegranate. Full length ADFVd genomic sequences have been recovered, increasing knowledge on the diversity of this viroid and on the pomegranate virome in which only four viruses and one viroid had previously been reported.
