A highly divergent isolate of tomato blistering mosaic virus from Solanum violaefolium
The complete genome of a tymovirus infecting Solanum violaefolium was sequenced. The
genome comprised 6284 nt, with a 5′-UTR of 137 nt and a comparatively longer 3′-UTR
of 121 nt. Sequence analysis confirmed three ORFs encoding a movement protein, a
polyprotein, and a coat protein (CP). The isolate was considered to be the Tomato blistering
mosaic virus (ToBMV) based on a CP amino acid sequence identity of 95.3%. The
nucleotide sequence of the complete genome of the S. violaefolium isolate, however …
