  • Title: The full-length genome sequence of a novel mitovirus from Botryosphaeria dothidea, the causal agent of pear ring rot disease.

    Journal: Arch Virol; 2021 Oct; 166(10):2881-2885. PubMed ID: 34338875.
    Abstract:
    Here, we describe a novel mycovirus, tentatively designated as "Botryosphaeria dothidea mitovirus 3" (BdMV3), isolated from Botryosphaeria dothidea strain FJ, which causes pear ring rot disease in Fujian Province, China. The complete genome nucleotide sequence of BdMV3 is 2538 nt in length and contains a single 2070-nt open reading frame (ORF) encoding a putative RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) of 689 amino acids (aa) using the fungal mitochondrial genetic code. BLASTp analysis revealed that the RdRp of BdMV3 shares 28.91%-69.36% sequence identity (query sequence coverage more than 90%) with those of members of the genus Mitovirus, with the highest sequence identity of 69.36% and 68.79% to the corresponding RdRp aa sequences of Rhizoctonia solani mitovirus 10 and Macrophomina phaseolina mitovirus 4, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis based on RdRp aa sequences indicated that BdMV3 is a new member of the genus Mitovirus in the family Mitoviridae.
