Popis: Maize-associated totivirus Anhui (MATV-Ah) is a novel totivirus with a 5536-nt genome and two large ORFs that encode a putative coat protein (CP) and an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRP). The two ORFs share amino acid identities of 32 and 56% when compared to other plant-associated totiviruses, respectively. Based on genome sequence similarity and phylogenetic analysis, MATV-Ah is proposed to be a member of the family Totiviridae genus Totivirus.
