Wheat dwarf virus (WDV) adversely affects cereal production in Asia, Europe, and North Africa. In this study, sequences of several WDV isolates from Iran which is located in the Fertile Crescent were analyzed. Analysis revealed a new geographic cluster for WDV-Wheat from Iran. Recombination analysis demonstrated the existence of several breakpoints in different regions of the viral genome. Data analysis demonstrated that WDV-Barley has an older history and lower diversity than WDV-Wheat. Sequence analysis identified a rare occasion of a co-infection of wheat with WDV-Wheat and WDV-Barley.
小麦矮缩病毒(WDV)对亚洲、欧洲和北非的谷物生产产生不利影响。在本研究中,对来自位于新月沃地的伊朗的几种WDV分离株的序列进行了分析。分析揭示了来自伊朗的WDV-小麦的一个新地理簇。重组分析表明病毒基因组不同区域存在几个断点。数据分析表明,WDV-大麦的历史比WDV-小麦更悠久,多样性更低。序列分析确定了小麦同时感染WDV-小麦和WDV-大麦的罕见情况。
