Abstract

Viruses are ubiquitous in nature and exist in a variety of habitats. The advancement in sequencing technologies has revolutionized the understanding of viral biodiversity associated with plant diseases. Deep sequencing combined with metagenomics is a powerful approach that has proven to be revolutionary in the last decade and involves the direct analysis of viral genomes present in a diseased tissue sample. This protocol describes the details of RNA extraction and purification from wild rice plant and their yield, RNA purity, and integrity assessment. As a final step, bioinformatics data analysis including demultiplexing, quality control, de novo transcriptome assembly, taxonomic allocation and read mapping following Illumina HiSeq small and total RNA sequencing are described. Furthermore, the total RNAs extraction protocol and an additional ribosomal rRNAs depletion step which are significantly important for viral genomes construction are provided.
