摘要

A novel alphapartitivirus, tentatively named "Ceratobasidium alphapartitivirus 1" (CeAPV1), was identified in the phytopathogenic fungus Ceratobasidium anastomosis group (AG)-A strain SR-LN-10, which was isolated from diseased strawberry roots exhibiting typical symptom of root rot. The full genome of CeAPV1 consists of two linear double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) segments: dsRNA1 and dsRNA2. The larger segment, dsRNA1 (1891 bp), contains an open reading frame (ORF) predicted to encode a 578-amino-acid (aa) RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp). The smaller segment, dsRNA2 (1878 bp), contains an ORF encoding a 546-aa coat protein (CP). BLASTp analysis showed that the RdRp encoded by CeAPV1 had the highest sequence similarity (74.78% identity) to the RdRp of Leucocoprinus alphapartitivirus 1 (LeAPV1). The CP encoded by CeAPV1 showed the highest sequence similarity (44.24% identity) to the CP of Bondarzewia berkeleyi partitivirus 1 (BbPV1). Phylogenetic analysis revealed that CeAPV1 clustered together with mycoviruses belonging to the genus Alphapartitivirus within the family Partitiviridae. Taken together, this indicated that CeAPV1 is a novel alphapartitivirus. This is the first report of a full-genome sequence of a novel alphapartitivirus infecting AG-A.
