چکیده
The complete nucleotide sequence of segment 5 (S5) of the rice dwarf virus (RDV) genome was determined. RDV S5 is 2571 bp in length and has a single long open reading frame which encodes a polypeptide of 801 amino acids (Mr 90495). When compared to the wound tumor virus genome S5, there was 56.9% and 52.8% similarity in the nucleotide and amino acid sequences, respectively. This high similarity suggests that the S5 proteins of these viruses are functionally similar.

The complete nucleotide sequence of the phytoreovirus rice dwarf virus (RDV) genome segment 9 is presented. It consisted of 1305 nucleotides and had an open reading frame that codes for a putative polypeptide of 351 amino acids. Mr of the protein was calculated to be 38,598. The terminal nucleotides 5' GGUAAA--GAU 3' were the same as those of RDV genome segment 10. The fourth nucleotide from th...
