Identification of Two New Isolates of Chilli veinal mottle virus From Different Regions in China: Molecular Diversity, Phylogenetic and Recombination Analysis.

ABSTRACT: Chilli veinal mottle virus (ChiVMV) is an important plant pathogen with a wide host range, causing serious yield losses in pepper production all over the world. Recombination is a major evolutionary event for single-stranded RNA viruses, which helps isolates adapt to new environmental conditions and hosts. Recombination events have been identified in multiple potyviruses, but so far, there have been no reports of recombination events among the ChiVMV population. We here detected ChiVMV in pepper samples collected from Guangxi and Yunnan provinces for the first time and amplified the nearly full-length sequences. Phylogenetic and recombination analysis were performed using the new sequences and the 14 full-length and 23 capsid protein (CP) sequences available in GenBank. Isolates ten
