Complete genome determination of a European Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) strain isolated in the French Cevennes
Christophe Loizel, Théophile Grébert

TL;DR
This paper presents the full genome of a highly pathogenic Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus strain from France and shows it is related to a Brazilian strain.
Contribution
The study provides the first complete genome sequence of a European BmNPV strain and its phylogenetic relationship to a Brazilian isolate.
Findings
A highly pathogenic BmNPV strain was isolated from the French Cevennes region.
Phylogenetic analysis shows the strain is closely related to a Brazilian BmNPV strain.
Abstract
The Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) is a critical pathogen in sericulture; yet, it also holds great promise for the bioproduction of recombinant proteins. Here, we report the characterization of a highly pathogenic strain from the French Cevennes region. Phylogenetic analyses reveal that this strain is related to a Brazilian BmNPV strain.
