ABSTRACT
The complete nucleotide sequence of peach virus D (PeVD) from Prunus persica was determined. The PeVD genome consists of 6,612 nucleotides excluding the 3' poly(A) tail and contains a single open reading frame coding for a polyprotein of 227 kDa. Sequence comparisons and phylogenetic analysis revealed that PeVD is most closely related to viruses in the genus Marafivirus, family Tymoviridae. The complete nucleotide and CP amino acid sequences of PeVD were most similar (51.1-57.8% and 32.2-48.0%, respectively) to members of the genus Marafivirus, suggesting that PeVD is a new member of this genus.

The complete genome sequence of Apricot pseudo-chlorotic leaf spot virus (APCLSV) isolate YC2, a South Korean isolate, was determined. The complete genome sequence was 7,491 nucleotides long and has a poly(A) tail. The YC2 isolate has 95% identity with another South Korean isolate and about 83% identity with an Italian isolate.
ABSTRACT
We report here the first complete genome sequence of a South Korean isolate of Nectarine stem pitting-associated virus (NSPaV) from peach and compare it with previously described complete NSPaV genome sequences. The highest whole-genome nucleotide sequence identity was 95.3% with GenBank accession no. KT273409 (NSPaV) from the United States.
