Tomato chlorosis virus (ToCV, genus Crinivirus, family Closteroviridae) is a whitefly-transmitted crinivirus with a bipartite RNA genome. This virus is emerging as a serious threat to tomato crops worldwide. To date, only three complete genomic sequences of ToCV have been described from North America, Spain, and Greece isolates. In this study, we present the fourth complete nucleotide sequence of the RNA 1 (8594 nt) and RNA 2 (8242 nt) components of a Brazilian ToCV isolate (ToCV-BR). The… CONTINUE READING
