Complete nucleotide sequence of a novel botourmiavirus from the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae isolate SH05

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