Abstract
A novel mycovirus, Ceratobasidium bipartite virus 1 (CBV1), was identified in Ceratobasidium sp. AG-A strain SHX-YJLC-1 isolated from diseased potato stems. The complete genome of CBV1 consists of two double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) segments: dsRNA1 (2311 bp) and dsRNA2 (1761 bp). dsRNA1 contains a single open reading frame (ORF1) encoding an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), while dsRNA2 contains a single ORF (ORF2) encoding a hypothetical protein (HP) with unknown function. BLASTp analysis revealed that RdRp (75.04%) and HP (61.86%) encoded by the two ORFs have the highest sequence similarity to their counterparts in Rhizoctonia solani dsRNA virus 11 (RsRV11). The genome organization and phylogenetic analysis indicated that the closest relatives to CBV1 are members of the proposed family "Bipartitiviridae". Based on the collective results, CBV1 is inferred to be a new member of the proposed family "Bipartitiviridae". This is the first report on the complete genome sequence of the novel bipartitivirus CBV1, which infects Ceratobasidium sp. AG-A strain SHX-YJLC-1.
