Abstract
Here, we identified a new mycovirus infecting the phytopathogenic fungus Nigrospora oryzae, which we have designated "Nigrospora oryzae partitivirus 2" (NoPV2). The genome of NoPV2 consists of two dsRNA segments (dsRNA 1 and dsRNA 2), measuring 1771 and 1440 bp in length, respectively. dsRNA 1 and dsRNA 2 each contain a single open reading frame (ORF) that encodes the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) and capsid protein (CP), respectively. A BLASTp search showed that the RdRp of NoPV2 had significant sequence similarity to the RdRps of other partitiviruses, including Nigrospora sphaerica partitivirus 1 (75.61% identity) and Magnaporthe oryzae partitivirus 1 (67.53% identity). Phylogenetic analysis revealed that NoPV2 is a new member of the genus Gammapartitivirus in the family Partitiviridae. This study provides important information for understanding the diversity of mycoviruses in N. oryzae.
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.
