First Report and Complete Genome Characterization of Cherry Virus A and Little Cherry Virus 1 from Russia.

ABSTRACT: Virus diseases affect the yield and fruit quality and shorten the productive life of stone fruits (Prunus spp. in the family Rosaceae). Of over fifty known viruses infecting these crops, cherry virus A (CVA) is among the most common, and little cherry virus 1 (LChV1) is one of the most economically important. Using high-throughput sequencing, full-length genomes of CVA and LChV1 isolates, found on interspecies hybrids in the Prunus collection of the Nikita Botanical Gardens, Russia, were sequenced, assembled, and characterized. CVA was found in the P. cerasifera × P. armeniaca hybrid and in phylogenetic analysis clustered with non-cherry virus isolates. The LChV1 isolate Stepnoe was detected in ((P. cerasifera Ehrh. × P. armeniaca L.) × P
