Abstract

Mosquitoes are colonized by a little-studied natural virome. Like the bacterial microbiome, the virome also probably influences the biology and immunity of mosquito vector populations, but tractable experimental models are lacking. We recently discovered two novel viruses in the virome of wild Anopheles and in colonies of the malaria vector Anopheles coluzzii: Anopheles C virus and Anopheles cypovirus. Here, we describe biological interactions between these two viruses and An. coluzzii mosquitoes. Viral abundance varies reproducibly during mosquito development. DNA forms of these viruses were not detected, and thus viral persistence is likely based on vertical transmission of RNA genomes. At least Anopheles C virus is vertically transmitted by an intraembryonic route. Relative abundance of the two viruses is inversely correlated in individual mosquitoes. One possible mechanism for this could be interactions with host immunity, and functional genomic analysis indicated differential influence of at least the Toll and JAK/STAT immune signaling pathways upon the viruses. The nonrandom distributions and interactions with host immunity suggest that these and other members of the natural virome may constitute a source of unrecognized heterogeneity in mosquito vector populations.

摘要

蚊子被一个研究甚少的天然病毒组所定殖。与细菌微生物组一样,病毒组可能也会影响蚊子媒介种群的生物学和免疫,但缺乏可行的实验模型。我们最近在野生疟蚊和疟疾媒介按蚊属(Anopheles coluzzii)的种群中发现了两种新型病毒:疟蚊 C 病毒和疟蚊 Cypovirus。在这里,我们描述了这两种病毒与按蚊属(An. coluzzii)蚊子之间的生物学相互作用。病毒丰度在蚊子发育过程中可重复变化。这些病毒的 DNA 形式未被检测到,因此病毒的持续存在可能基于 RNA 基因组的垂直传播。至少疟蚊 C 病毒是通过胚胎内途径垂直传播的。两种病毒在个体蚊子中的相对丰度呈反比相关。一种可能的机制可能是与宿主免疫的相互作用,功能基因组分析表明,至少 Toll 和 JAK/STAT 免疫信号通路对这些病毒和其他病毒成员的影响不同。非随机分布和与宿主免疫的相互作用表明,这些和天然病毒组的其他成员可能构成蚊子媒介种群中未被识别的异质性的来源。
