    Abstract:
    Nucleotide sequences of the genomic RNA beta components of hordeiviruses poa semilatent virus (PSLV) and lychnis ringspot virus (LRSV) were determined. PSLV and LRSV closely resemble barley stripe mosaic virus (BSMV), type hordeivirus, in the gene arrangement of their RNAs beta, comprising 5'-proximal beta a (coat protein) gene and downstream triple gene block (TGB) coding for the beta b, beta c, and beta d putative transport proteins. The beta a, beta b, beta c, and beta d proteins of the three hordeiviruses showed significant sequence similarity, with the respective proteins of PSLV and BSMV being closer to each other than to their counterparts of LSRV. Comparisons of the TGB-encoded proteins of hordeiviruses, potexviruses, carlaviruses, and furoviruses indicate that the first and second TGB genes belong to the monophyletic groups, whereas the third gene may have multiple ancestry. LRSV, PSLV, and BSMV showed remarkable variation in the 3'-untranslated regions of their genomic RNAs. Among the three hordeiviruses, LRSV has the shortest 3'-noncoding region that lacks tentative pseudoknot-forming elements conserved upstream of the 3'-tRNA-like structure in the BSMV and PSLV genomes. On the other hand, LRSV RNA beta, like that of BSMV, contained the internal poly(A) sequence that is absent from PSLV RNA.
