Abstract
A novel mycovirus with the proposed name "Magnaporthe oryzae botourmiavirus 9" (MoBV9) was found in the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae isolate SH05. The virus has a positive single-stranded RNA genome of 2,812 nucleotides and contains a single open reading frame predicted to encode an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase that is closely related to those of some unclassified viruses of the family Botourmiaviridae, including Plasmopara viticola lesion associated ourmia-like virus 44, Plasmopara viticola lesion associated ourmia-like virus 47, and Cladosporium uredinicola ourmiavirus 1. Genome sequence comparisons and phylogenetic analysis supported the notion that MoBV9 is a new member of the family Botourmiaviridae.
