Abstract
The complete genome sequences of two poorly studied Prunus-infecting nepoviruses, apricot latent ringspot virus (ALRSV) and myrobalan latent ringspot virus (MLRSV) were determined, confirming that they are members of subgroup C. Serological, biological, and molecular data, in particular a low level (58.8%) of amino acid sequence identity in the coat protein, suggest that ALRSV and MLRSV should be considered taxonomically distinct. In addition, data mining of public RNASeq data from wild and ornamental Prunus identified two contigs representing the nearly complete genome of a new subgroup A nepovirus from a smooth stone peach (Prunus mira) dataset (SRR8369794) from the Himalayas, for which the name "Prunus mira virus A" is proposed.
期刊介绍:
Archives of Virology publishes original contributions from all branches of research on viruses, virus-like agents, and virus infections of humans, animals, plants, insects, and bacteria. Coverage spans a broad spectrum of topics, from descriptions of newly discovered viruses, to studies of virus structure, composition, and genetics, to studies of virus interactions with host cells, organisms and populations. Studies employ molecular biologic, molecular genetics, and current immunologic and epidemiologic approaches. Contents include studies on the molecular pathogenesis, pathophysiology, and genetics of virus infections in individual hosts, and studies on the molecular epidemiology of virus infections in populations. Also included are studies involving applied research such as diagnostic technology development, monoclonal antibody panel development, vaccine development, and antiviral drug development.Archives of Virology wishes to publish obituaries of recently deceased well-known virologists and leading figures in virology.
