Abstract
Abstract Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) is a stable, mechanically transmitted Tobamovirus infecting solanaceous hosts, but complete-genome data from naturally infected wild hosts in Egypt remain limited. Symptomatic wild tree tobacco, Nicotiana glauca Graham, was collected from New Borg El-Arab, Alexandria Governorate, Egypt, and examined for TMV infection. Among 29 symptomatic samples screened by DAS-ELISA, two samples, S10 and S24, were positive. Both were confirmed by RT-PCR using movement protein-specific primers, which amplified the expected 422-bp fragment. Sample S10 was selected for single-lesion purification and complete-genome sequencing, and the resulting isolate was designated TMV isolate 30102. Biological indexing confirmed infectivity, and transmission electron microscopy revealed rigid rod-shaped particles approximately 300 nm long. The complete 6,395-nt genome was assembled from seven overlapping RT-PCR fragments and deposited as ON142174.1. Sequence identity and maximum-likelihood phylogeny placed ON142174.1 within the globally distributed TMV population.
Abstract Capulavirus betae (beet capulavirus 1, BCV1) is a recently described species of the genus Capulavirus (family Geminiviridae) that was first identified in sugar beet in France. Capulaviruses are new group of geminiviruses because they are transmitted by aphids. Here, we report the identification and molecular c...

The fungal pathogen Pyricularia oryzae is notorious for causing blast disease in various important cereal crops, including wheat, rice, millet, and oat. Whole-genome-informed data on this pathogen are necessary to better understand the host adaptability of the fungus, including identifying key determinants of infection...
