Correction for Batovska et al, “Coding-Complete Genome Sequence of Yada Yada Virus, a Novel Alphavirus Detected in Australian Mosquitoes”
The 331-bp sequence is part of the nonstructural polyprotein (NSP4) and shares 97% nucleotide identity and 99.1% amino acid identity with Yada Yada virus (YYV). This sequence was detected in an Aedes notoscriptus mosquito collected in North Melbourne, Australia, in 2011
The similarity of this sequence to YYV suggests that the virus from which it originated is part of the mosquito-specific alphavirus complex, which consists of viruses that have been detected only in Anopheles and Culex mosquitoes
