Abstract

In this study, the complete genomic sequence of a novel botoulivirus (Sclerotinia minor botoulivirus 1, SmBV1) from the phytopathogenic fungus Sclerotinia minor strain LC45 was determined. The genome of SmBV1 is 2,882 nucleotides in length and contains a single large open reading frame (ORF) encoding a putative RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp). Phylogenetic analysis showed that SmBV1 clustered with the botoulivirus clade within the family Botourmiaviridae. This is the first report of a botoulivirus in S. minor.
