We report here the isolation and characterization of three distinct isolates of Cymbidium mosaic virus (CymMV) co-infecting Dendrobium orchid in Hawaii. Isolates 1 and 2 were phylogenetically distinct from previously reported CymMV isolates. However, isolate 3 was highly similar to previously reported CymMV sequences and could be localised to CymMV subgroup A. Isolate 2 localised to CymMV subgroup B. Thus, we report here the first full-length CymMV subgroup B isolate. Isolate 1 represents a recombination event between isolates 2 and 3. Infectivity assays revealed that all three isolates are functional and individually infectious in both Dendrobium and indicator species.
我们在此报告了在夏威夷共感染石斛兰的三种不同的建兰花叶病毒(CymMV)分离株的分离与特性鉴定。分离株1和2在系统发育上与先前报道的CymMV分离株不同。然而,分离株3与先前报道的CymMV序列高度相似,可归为CymMV A亚组。分离株2归为CymMV B亚组。因此,我们在此报告了首个全长的CymMV B亚组分离株。分离株1代表了分离株2和3之间的重组事件。感染性测定表明,所有三种分离株均具有功能,且在石斛兰和指示物种中均具有单独的感染性。
