Abstract

The complete genomic nucleotide sequence of hemisteptia virus A (HemVA) from a Hemisteptia lyrata Bunge plant in South Korea was identified by high-throughput sequencing. The HemVA genome consists of 6,122 nucleotides and contains seven putative open reading frames, ORF0–5 and ORF3a, encoding the putative proteins P0–P5 and P3a, respectively. Pairwise amino acid sequence analysis shows that the HemVA P1–P5 proteins have the highest sequence identity (23.68%-54.15%) to the corresponding proteins of members of the families Solemoviridae and Tombusviridae. Phylogenetic analysis of the P1–P2 and P3 amino acid sequences indicated that HemVA should be classified as a member of a distinct species in the genus Polerovirus.
