Complete nucleotide sequence of the genomic RNA of Aconitum latent virus (genus Carlavirus) isolated from Delphinium sp

Arch Virol. 2002 Apr;147(4):865-70. doi: 10.1007/s007050200034.

Abstract

We determined the complete nucleotide sequence of Aconitum latent virus (AcLV-D) isolated from Delphinium sp. The genomic RNA of AcLV-D is 8,657 nucleotides in length, excluding the poly (A) tail. Based on computer analysis, six open reading frames (ORFs) were identified as for other carlaviruses. Although each ORF differs from those of previously reported carlaviruses, the coat protein of AcLV and Potato virus M (PVM) shows a high level of identity. The results suggest that AcLV is a distinct carlavirus species but closely related to PVM.
