Oxford Nanopore Sequencing Reveals an Exotic Broad bean mottle virus Genome within Australian Grains Post-Entry Quarantine.

A Broad bean mottle virus (BBMV) isolate (S52) obtained from an infected Vicia faba leaf sample from Syria was sequenced using Oxford Nanopore long-read sequencing at the Australian border. The genome had 95.6%, 98.2%, and 93.4% nucleotide sequence identity to BBMV strains RNA1 (Bawden), RNA2 (Mo), and RNA3 (Bawden).

Transcriptome Sequencing Reveals the Genome Sequence of Pea Early Browning Virus from a 29-Year-Old Faba Bean Sample.

Pea early browning virus (PEBV) is transmitted by soil-inhabiting trichodorid nematodes and via seeds. The transcriptome sequencing method, followed by de novo assembly, revealed the PEBV Libyan isolate LyV66-91 genome. Its RNA1 resembled that of UK isolate SP5 with 93.91% nucleotide identity, and its RNA2 had 63.32% nucleotide identity to that of Dutch isolate E116.
