Clostera anastomosis (Lepidoptera: Notodontidae) is a defoliating forest insect pest. Clostera anastomosis granulovirus-B (ClasGV-B) belonging to the genus Betabaculovirus of family Baculoviridae has been used for biological control of the pest. Here we reported the full genome sequence of ClasGV-B and compared it to other previously sequenced baculoviruses. The circular double-stranded DNA genome is 107,439 bp in length, with a G+C content of 37.8% and contains 123 open reading frames (ORFs) representing 93% of the genome. ClasGV-B contains 37 baculovirus core genes, 25 lepidopteran baculovirus specific genes, 19 betabaculovirus specific genes, 39 other genes with homologues to baculoviruses and 3 ORFs unique to ClasGV-B. Hrs appear to be absent from the ClasGV-B genome, however, two non-hr repeats were found. Phylogenetic tree based on 37 core genes from 73 baculovirus genomes placed ClasGV-B in the clade b of betabaculoviruses and was most closely related to Erinnyis ello GV (ErelGV). The gene arrangement of ClasGV-B also shared the strongest collinearity with ErelGV but differed from Clostera anachoreta GV (ClanGV), Clostera anastomosis GV-A (ClasGV-A, previously also called CaLGV) and Epinotia aporema GV (EpapGV) with a 20 kb inversion. ClasGV-B genome contains three copies of polyhedron envelope protein gene (pep) and phylogenetic tree divides the PEPs of betabaculoviruses into three major clades: PEP-1, PEP-2 and PEP/P10. ClasGV-B also contains three homologues of P10 which all harbor an N-terminal coiled-coil domain and a C-terminal basic sequence. ClasGV-B encodes three fibroblast growth factor (FGF) homologues which are conserved in all sequenced betabaculoviruses. Phylogenetic analysis placed these three FGFs into different groups and suggested that the FGFs were evolved at the early stage of the betabaculovirus expansion. ClasGV-B is different from previously reported ClasGV-A and ClanGV isolated from Notodontidae in sequence and gene arrangement, indicating the virus is a new notodontid betabaculovirus.
柳毒蛾(鳞翅目:舟蛾科)是一种食叶性森林害虫。属于杆状病毒科β杆状病毒属的柳毒蛾颗粒体病毒B(ClasGV - B)已被用于该害虫的生物防治。在此,我们报道了ClasGV - B的全基因组序列,并将其与其他先前测序的杆状病毒进行了比较。该环状双链DNA基因组长度为107,439 bp,G + C含量为37.8%,包含123个开放阅读框(ORF),占基因组的93%。ClasGV - B包含37个杆状病毒核心基因、25个鳞翅目杆状病毒特异性基因、19个β杆状病毒特异性基因、39个与杆状病毒具有同源性的其他基因以及3个ClasGV - B特有的ORF。ClasGV - B基因组中似乎不存在hrs,但发现了两个非hrs重复序列。基于73个杆状病毒基因组的37个核心基因构建的系统发育树将ClasGV - B置于β杆状病毒的b分支中,与埃氏绢野螟颗粒体病毒(ErelGV)关系最为密切。ClasGV - B的基因排列也与ErelGV具有最强的共线性,但与柳杉毒蛾颗粒体病毒(ClanGV)、柳毒蛾颗粒体病毒A(ClasGV - A,以前也称为CaLGV)和埃氏锥额野螟颗粒体病毒(EpapGV)不同,存在一个20 kb的倒位。ClasGV - B基因组包含三个多面体包膜蛋白基因(pep)的拷贝,系统发育树将β杆状病毒的PEP分为三个主要分支:PEP - 1、PEP - 2和PEP/P10。ClasGV - B还包含三个P10的同源物,它们都具有一个N端卷曲螺旋结构域和一个C端碱性序列。ClasGV - B编码三个成纤维细胞生长因子(FGF)同源物,在所有已测序的β杆状病毒中均保守。系统发育分析将这三个FGF分为不同的组,并表明FGF在β杆状病毒扩张的早期阶段就已进化。ClasGV - B在序列和基因排列上与先前报道的从舟蛾科分离的ClasGV - A和ClanGV不同,表明该病毒是一种新的舟蛾科β杆状病毒。
