Sequence analysis of grapevine isolates of raspberry ringspot nepovirus. Brief report
Résumé
The nucleotide sequences of RNAs 1 and 2 of a German isolate of Raspberry ringspot virus (RpRSV) infecting grapevine (RpRSV-Grapevine), as well as partial sequences of another grapevine isolate from Switzerland (RAC815) were determined. The sequences of the protease-polymerase region encoded by RNA1, and the movement protein and coat protein genes encoded by RNA 2, of these isolates were compared with those of other isolates available in databases. The coat proteins of the grapevine isolates formed a sister group to all those from other RpRSV isolates, but whether this resulted from divergence or recombination was uncertain.
