520 |a Cucurbita moschata is widely cultivated in Brazil, and zucchini lethal chlorosis virus, squash mosaic virus, papaya ringspot virus, watermelon mosaic virus have been reported as viral pathogens in this crop in Brazil. The leaf samples of C. moschata showing mosaic, blistering, and yellowing symptoms were collected from a commercial field in Petrolina, Pernambuco state and a commercial field in Juazeiro, Bahia state, in February 2023. To identify viruses that infect cucurbit plants in Brazil, three pooled samples showing virus-like symptoms (plants from the Cucurbita genus, the Cucumis genus, and other cucurbit plans including watermelon and chayote) were analyzed by high-throughput sequencing (HTS). The total RNA was extracted from the semi-purified virus using the protocol described by Blawid et al. 2017. The cDNA library was constructed from one RNA sample, which was composed of three pooled RNA samples (Cucurbita genus, the Cucumis genus, and other cucurbit plans), using TruSeq Stranded Total RNA with Ribo-Zero Plant kit (Illumina, San Diego, CA, US) and sequenced by HTS using Novaseq 10G scale (150 bp paired-ends). De novo assembly of total reads was performed using Megahit (Li et al. 2015), and the resulting contigs were analyzed using Blastx with RefSeq viral proteins 2023 (NCBI) in Geneious Prime (Biomatters, Auckland, New Zealand). Total of 88,028,898 reads were obtained and 407,500 contigs (mean length 514 nt) were assembled. Two contigs showed higher amino acid sequence identities (95.4% of 3124 aa in polyprotein and 87.2% of 203 aa in P1 protein) with Moroccan watermelon mosaic virus (MWMV) in the genus Potyvirus of the family Potyviridae (McKern et al. 1993), a virus that had not been previously reported in Brazil. The complete genome was assembled by the read mapping to the contigs as references. The assembled complete genome of MWMV (LC775353) was 9,713 nt, not counting the poly(A) tail, and 217,278 reads were aligned to the genome with a mean coverage of 3369.6 and a pairwise identity of 99.0%. The assembled genome encoded a polyprotein with a higher amino acid sequence identity of 97.82% with the Moroccan isolate (OQ847413). To confirm the presence of this virus in individual samples, RT-PCR was performed with specific primers (MWMV-F: ATTGTCTGATGAAAGAGCACA and MWMV-R: CAGCTTCAGTCGCAACAAG), targeting the cylindrical inclusion gene (the expected size of 598 bp). Eleven field samples of pumpkin plants (six from a field in Juazeiro region and five from Petrolina region) were analyzed using RT-PCR, and one sample from Juazeiro and five samples from Petrolina were positive for MWMV. One replicon of each region was sequenced (Juazeiro, OR338305; Petrolina, OR338306) and showed higher nucleotide identities of 97.0% with each other, and 96.4% and of 97.7%, respectively, with the isolate from Morocco (OQ847413). Samples positive for MWMV were tested for the presence of other viruses previously reported in Brazil. All five samples from Petrolina were positive by RT-PCR as a mixed infection with zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV) and cucurbit whitefly-borne yellows virus, also, four out of five samples were positive for papaya ringspot virus (PRSV). On the other hand, in one sample positive for MWMV from Bahia state, no mixed infection with ZYMV and PRSV was observed. This is the first report of the occurrence of MWMV in Brazil and South America, associated with mosaic, blistering and yellowing disease symptoms in pumpkin plants
