We report for the first time the complete genome sequence of a novel amalgavirus, tentatively designated as 'lily amalgavirus 1' (LAV-1), isolated from Lilium spp. in China. LAV-1 is a 3448-nt double-stranded RNA virus that encodes two putative proteins. Open reading frame 1 (ORF1) encodes a 394-aa protein with unknown function. ORF2 encodes a putative RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) of 895 aa. The two ORFs putatively encode a '1 + 2' fusion protein generated by a '+1' programmed ribosomal frameshift (PRF). BLASTp analysis revealed that the complete genome sequence of LAV-1 shares 48.23-59.80% sequence identity (query sequence coverage > 77%) with those of members of the genus Amalgavirus, with the highest nucleotide sequence identity of 59.80% with that of Allium cepa amalgavirus 1 (query sequence coverage, 87%). The genome structure, phylogenetic relationships, and sequence similarities to other plant amalgaviruses suggest that LAV-1 is a new member of the genus Amalgavirus.
我们首次报道了一种新型虹彩病毒的全基因组序列，暂命名为“百合虹彩病毒 1 型”（LAV-1），该病毒从中国的百合属植物中分离得到。LAV-1 是一种 3448 个核苷酸的双链 RNA 病毒，编码两个假定的蛋白。开放阅读框 1（ORF1）编码一个 394 个氨基酸的未知功能蛋白。ORF2 编码一个推定的 RNA 依赖性 RNA 聚合酶（RdRp），由 895 个氨基酸组成。这两个 ORF 假定编码一个通过“+1”程序性核糖体移码（PRF）产生的“1+2”融合蛋白。BLASTp 分析表明，LAV-1 的全基因组序列与虹彩病毒属的成员具有 48.23-59.80%的序列同一性（查询序列覆盖率>77%），与 Allium cepa amalgavirus 1 的核苷酸序列同一性最高，为 59.80%（查询序列覆盖率为 87%）。基因组结构、系统发育关系和与其他植物虹彩病毒的序列相似性表明，LAV-1 是虹彩病毒属的一个新成员。
