  • Title: Genome sequence of a novel member of the order Picornavirales from the endoparasitoid wasp Diversinervus elegans.
    Author: Wu CY, Zhao YJ, Zhu JY.
    Journal: Arch Virol; 2021 Jan; 166(1):295-297. PubMed ID: 33067649.
    Abstract:
    Here, we report a novel RNA virus from an encyrtid endoparasitoid wasp (Diversinervus elegans). This virus has a genome of 8845 nucleotides in length with a poly(A) tail. It contains one open reading frame (ORF) encoding a single polyprotein that shares the most significant similarity to the polyproteins of dicistroviruses. Phylogenetic analysis suggested that this virus belongs to the family Dicistroviridae from the order Picornavirales, but its genomic organization is distinct from that of the other known dicistroviruses, which have two ORFs. Consequently, we propose that this virus is a member of a new species in the order Picornavirales, and have named it "Diversinervus elegans virus" (DEV).
