TL;DR
Scientists discovered a new virus in a plant species from Colombia and sequenced its entire genome.
Contribution
The paper presents the complete genome sequence of a putative novel orthotospovirus species in Limonium sinuatum.
Findings
The virus, named LOV1, has less than 64% amino acid identity with other orthotospoviruses.
Phylogenetic analysis places LOV1 in the 'American clade' of orthotospoviruses.
Abstract
We report the complete genome sequence of a putative novel orthotospovirus species in statice (Limonium sinuatum) from Colombia, provisionally named Orthotospovirus limonii (Limonium orthotospovirus 1; LOV1). Its nucleocapsid protein shows less than 64% amino acid identity with other orthotospoviruses. Phylogenetic analyses place LOV1 in the “American clade.”
