Abstract/Contents:"The nucleotide sequence of the hypovirulence-associated double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) in Sclerotinia homoecarpa, the causal agent of dollar spot of turfgrass, was obtained. This dsRNA is 2632 bp long and one strand contains an opening reading frame with the potential to encode a protein of 720 amino acids. The amino acid sequence contains all the conserved motifs of RNA-dependent RNA polymerases (RdRps). Sequence analysis of nucleotide and RdRp-like protein revealed that this dsRNA is homologous with previously characterized mitochondrial viruses and dsRNAs, and shares 91.1% nucleotide and 95.0% amino acid sequence identities with the Ophiostoma mitovirus 3a-OnuLd from Ophiostoma novo-ulmi, the causal agent of Dutch elm disease. The results indicate that these two dsRNA viruses are conspecific. This is the first report that a dsRNA virus naturally occurs in two taxonomically distinct fungi, and indicates that horizontal transmission of this virus may have occurred between these fungi."
