摘要: In this report, we describe the molecular characterization of two novel mycoviruses coinfecting the plant pathogenic fungus Nigrospora sphaerica, which were designated "Nigrospora sphaerica fusarivirus 1" (NsFV1) and "Nigrospora sphaerica partitivirus 1" (NsPV1). NsFV1 has an undivided genome measuring 6,147 nt, excluding the polyA tail, and was predicted to contain two nonoverlapping open reading frames (ORF1 and 2). The larger ORF1 encodes a polyprotein containing a conserved RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) and a helicase domain that has functions related to RNA replication, and the smaller ORF2 encodes a putative protein with an unknown function. NsPV1 consists of two genome segments, which measure 1,796 bp and 1,455 bp in length. Each of the two dsRNAs has a single ORF, and they are predicted to encode proteins with homology to viral RdRps and coat proteins of members of the family Partitiviridae. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that NsFV1 is a member of the recently proposed family "Fusariviridae", while NsPV1 was determined to belong to the genus Gammapartitivirus in the family Partitiviridae. To the best of our knowledge, this report is the first to describe mycoviruses infecting N. sphaerica.
