Identification and full genomic sequence of nerine yellow stripe virus.

This study reports the first complete genome sequence of nerine yellow stripe virus (NeYSV, GenBank MT396083). The genome consists of 10,165 nucleotides, excluding the 3'-terminal poly(A) tail. A single open reading frame encodes a large polyprotein of 3294 amino acids with typical potyvirus features. The nuclear inclusion b and coat protein region shares 95% identity with a previously reported partial NeYSV sequence (NC_043153.1). Phylogenetic analysis of the polyprotein amino acid sequence showed that NeYSV clustered with hippeastrum mosaic virus (HiMV YP_006382256.1).
