An isometric virus was identified in mulberry leaves showing symptoms of mulberry mosaic leaf roll (MMLR) disease. Its genome consists of two (+)ssRNAs. RNA1 and RNA2 have 7183 and 3742 nucleotides, excluding the 3'-terminal poly(A) tail. Based on phylogenetic analysis of the RNA1-encoded polyprotein and CP amino acid sequences, the properties of the the 3'-UTR of RNA1 and RNA2, and <75 % identity in the CP amino acid sequence, this virus is proposed to be a new member of the genus Nepovirus, subgroup A. Since a causal relationship between this virus and MMLR has not been established, it is tentatively referred to as MMLR-associated virus.
在表现出桑花叶卷叶病(MMLR)症状的桑叶中鉴定出一种等轴对称病毒。其基因组由两条(+)ssRNA组成。RNA1和RNA2分别有7183和3742个核苷酸,不包括3'-末端的poly(A)尾。基于对RNA1编码的多聚蛋白和外壳蛋白氨基酸序列的系统发育分析、RNA1和RNA2的3'-UTR的特性以及外壳蛋白氨基酸序列中<75%的同一性,该病毒被认为是线虫传多面体病毒属A亚组的一个新成员。由于尚未确定该病毒与MMLR之间的因果关系,暂将其称为MMLR相关病毒。
