Abstract
The complete genome sequence of a severe isolate of broad bean true mosaic virus (genus Comovirus, subfamily Comovirinae, family Secoviridae) is presented. Comparison of the amino acid sequences of the capsid proteins and the polymerase showed striking differences to other comoviruses and highest similarities to legume-infecting comoviruses. Red clover mottle virus was recognized as the most similar virus with amino acid sequence identities ranging from 43 to 67% for individual genes.
