Complete genome sequence of a new isolate of potato virus M in Yunnan, China.

The complete genome sequence of a new potato virus M (PVM) isolate (PVM-YN), collected from potato (Solanum tuberosum) in Yunnan, China, was determined. It was 8,530 nucleotides (nt) in length, excluding the poly(A) tail at the 3' end, and shared 71.4-72.0% nucleotide sequence identity with available PVM isolates in the NCBI database. The coat proteins (CP) of PVM-YN shared 79.0-97.4% amino acid sequence identity with that of other isolates. It is the first report of the complete genomic sequence of a new PVM isolate infecting S. tuberosum in China.
