Abstract
A novel macluravirus, tentatively named "tsaoko stripe mosaic virus" (TkSMV), was identified in Amomum tsaoko through high-throughput sequencing. The complete genome sequence of TkSMV was determined using RT-PCR and RACE. The genome sequence consists of 8218 nucleotides, excluding the poly(A) tail, and contains a large open reading frame encoding a polyprotein of 2625 amino acids with a molecular weight of approximately 297.13 kDa. TkSMV is most closely related to Alpinia oxyphylla mosaic virus, sharing 71.5% nucleotide and 75.9% amino acid sequence identity. These values are below the species demarcation threshold for the family Potyviridae. These results suggest that TkSMV should be considered a distinct member of the genus Macluravirus.
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.
