Abstract
We report the first complete nucleotide sequence of an isolate of iris yellow spot virus (IYSV; Orthotospovirus iridimaculaflavi) from Brazil. Isolate Br-25 was collected in 2025 in Imbuia, Santa Catarina, from symptomatic onion scapes. The genome of IYSV-Br-25 consisted of L, M and S genomic RNAs of 8879, 4866 and 3223 nt, respectively. Comparison of the L segment nucleotide (nt) sequence showed identities ~96% to most of the available L segment sequences from IYSV isolates of different geographic origin, with the exception of isolate DSMZ PV-0528, which showed 89.0% nt identity. The M and S segment nt sequences showed highest identity to an isolate recently reported from sugarbeet in Idaho, USA. In silico-generated Hinf1 digestion profile assigned the isolate to the previously defined IYSVBR genotype. This work provides valuable novel information on the genetic diversity of IYSV.
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.
