Abstract

In this report, the full genome sequence of a novel mycovirus, designatedas "Rhizoctonia solani partitivirus SM03" (RsPV-SM03), was determined in Rhizoctonia solani AG-4 HG III isolate SM03. RsPV-SM03 genome consists of two dsRNAs (dsRNA-1 and dsRNA-2), each of them contains one single open reading frame (ORF). ORF1 of dsRNA-1 encodes a putative RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), while ORF2 of dsRNA-2 encodes a putative viral coat protein (CP). Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the RdRp and CP of RsPV-SM03 are closely related to those of other members of the genus Alphapartitivirus, family Partitiviridae, suggesting that RsPV-SM03 represents a novel species in the genus Alphapartitivirus.
