Title: Complete genome sequence of a novel mitovirus from the phytopathogenic fungus Fusarium oxysporum. Author: Wang J, Li C, Qiu R, Li X, Zhao J, Bai J, Chen Y, Li S. Journal: Arch Virol; 2021 Nov; 166(11):3211-3216. PubMed ID: 34495411. Abstract: Fusarium oxysporum is a cosmopolitan plant pathogen that causes fusarium wilt and fusarium root rot in many economically important crops. There is still limited information about mycoviruses that infect F. oxysporum. Here, a novel mitovirus tentatively named "Fusarium oxysporum mitovirus 1" (FoMV1) was identified in F. oxysporum strain B2-10. The genome of FoMV1 is 2,453 nt in length with a predicted AU content of 71.6% and contains one large open reading frame (ORF) using the fungal mitochondrial genetic code. The ORF putatively encodes an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) of 723 aa with a molecular mass of 84.98 kDa. The RdRp domain of FoMV1 shares 29.01% to 68.43% sequence identity with the members of the family Mitoviridae. Phylogenetic analysis further suggested that FoMV1 is a new member of a distinct species in the genus Mitovirus.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
