The complete nucleotide sequence of Beet black scorch virus (BBSV) was determined. The BBSV genome is composed of 3641 nucleotides and has similar organization with Tobacco necrosis virus D of 61% nucleotide identity. The 5'-proximal open reading frame (ORF) encodes a putative 23 kDa protein and a 82 kDa protein by reading-through of an amber termination codon. Three small ORFs located in the center of the genome may encode for a 4.2 kDa protein and two 7 kDa proteins. The 3'-proximal ORF encodes a 24.5 kDa protein equivalent in mass to the viral coat protein. Considering biological and molecular similarities with TNV, it is concluded that BBSV is a new member of the genus Necrovirus.
测定了甜菜黑焦病毒(BBSV)的完整核苷酸序列。BBSV基因组由3641个核苷酸组成,与烟草坏死病毒D具有相似的组织架构,核苷酸同一性为61%。5'近端开放阅读框(ORF)通过琥珀色终止密码子的通读编码一种推定的23 kDa蛋白和一种82 kDa蛋白。位于基因组中心的三个小ORF可能编码一种4.2 kDa蛋白和两种7 kDa蛋白。3'近端ORF编码一种24.5 kDa蛋白,其质量与病毒外壳蛋白相当。考虑到与烟草坏死病毒在生物学和分子方面的相似性,得出结论:BBSV是坏死病毒属的一个新成员。
