摘要： A novel double-stranded RNA virus was isolated and identified from Beauveria bassiana Vuillemin, derived from the muscardine cadaver of an Ostrinia furnacalis larva in China. The virus contains six dsRNAs, and each viral dsRNA contains only one open reading frame (ORF). As in other polymycoviruses, dsRNA1 encodes an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), dsRNA3 encodes a methyltransferase (MTR), and dsRNA4 encodes a proline-alanine-serine-rich protein. A BLASTp search revealed that the viral RdRp domain showed 79.43%, 79.04%, and 59.05% sequence identity to Beauveria bassiana polymycovirus 2 and 3 (BbPmV-2, BbPmV-3) and Magnaporthe oryzae polymycovirus 1 (MoPmV-1), respectively. Phylogenetic analysis based on RdRp sequences showed that the phylogenetically closest relatives of this virus are BbPmV-2, BbPmV-3, and MoPmV-1. This virus, along with previously ill-defined polymycoviruses (BbPmV-2 and BbPmV-3), appears to belong to an as-yet-unestablished species. The findings further suggest that the virus is a new member of the genus Polymycovirus within the family Polymycoviridae, and we have named it "Beauveria bassiana polymycovirus 4" (BbPmV-4). However, the sixth dsRNA is a defective RNA with the same sequence as that of dsRNA4 except for a deletion of 312 bp from nt 185 to nt 496, but it still contains a complete ORF. To our knowledge, this is the first report of the existence of a defective RNA in a polymycovirus.
