# New Cydia pomonella granulovirus strain with high entomopathogenic activity

## TL;DR

A new strain of Cydia pomonella granulovirus with high insect-killing potential was identified and its genome was sequenced.

## Contribution

The discovery and characterization of a new CpGV strain with high entomopathogenic activity.

## Key findings

- The genome of the new CpGV strain is 123,862 base pairs long.
- The genome shows over 99% similarity to the reference NC_002816 sequence in the NCBI RefSeq database.

## Abstract

We report a genome of CpGV from the bioresource collection of the Federal Research Center of Biological Plant Protection “State Collection of Entomoacariphages and Microorganisms.” Its sequence is 123,862 bp. The genome under study demonstrates a degree of similarity of more than 99% with reference NC_002816 from the NCBI RefSeq database.
