Low relevanceCharacterization of a novel dsRNA mycovirus of Trichoderma atroviride NFCF028.
Lentinula edodes
Key points
- Molecular characterization of the most common dsRNA element from Trichoderma atroviride indicated that it comprised 8,566 bp and encoded two large open reading frames (ORF1 and 2)
- The two ORFs were found to overlap by 46 bp with a typical (-1) slippery heptanucelotide sequence
- The deduced protein sequences of ORF1 and ORF2 showed significant similarities to those of known mycoviral structural proteins and RNA-dependent RNA polymerases, respectively
- Phylogenetic analysis indicated that this dsRNA is a member of a distinct species related to a group of unclassified mycoviruses; therefore, it was named Trichoderma atroviride mycovirus 1 (TaMV1)
