Molecular analysis of gooseberry vein banding associated virus.
The intraspecies variability of gooseberry vein banding associated virus (GVBaV) was analyzed by using 5 complete and 9 partial sequences and compared with other badnavirus species. GVBaV was recognized to be a monophyletic and very homogeneous species with up to 94% identities in distinct proteins. Analysis of non-synonymous and synonymous substitution ratios (dNS/dS) revealed higher values for ORF4 in comparison with other genes. This could reflect different evolutionary pressure upon this ORF. A highly variable region with possible diagnostic value has been localized in the intergenic region of the virus.
