The sequence of the central part (ORF2) of a Brazilian isolate of Southern bean mosaic virus (SBMV SP ) is described. This ORF is 2888 nt long and together with the previously-sequenced 5¢ and 3¢ ends provides the complete nucleotide sequence of this virus isolate. The SBMV SP RNA encodes four overlapping open reading frames (ORF1, ORF2a, ORF2b, ORF4) and has a genome organization similar to that of the Cocksfoot mottle sobemovirus.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
