Virion Properties

Morphology

Virions consist of a capsid. Virus capsid is not enveloped. Capsid/nucleocapsid is elongated with helical symmetry. Virus preparations contain more than one particle component. The capsid is rod-shaped; is longitudinally striated with a clear modal length, or a clear modal length, or clear predominate lengths with a length of 144-175 nm (B), or 109 nm (T, 126 nm (M) and a width of 18-25 nm. Axial canal is distinct; 3-3.5-4 nm in diameter. Basic helix is obvious. Pitch of helix is 2.5-2.55-2.6 nm.

Electron microscopic preparation and references: Virus preparation contains few virions.

Physicochemical and Physical Properties

There are 3 sedimenting component(s) found in purified preparations. The sedimentation coefficient is 199 S20w; of the other(s) are 166-180-194 S20w. Isoelectric point pH is 4.5. A260/A280 ratio is 0.99. The thermal inactivation point (TIP) is at 60-65.5-68°C. The longevity in vitro (LIV) is 15-69.25-120 days. Although the titer is dependent on the host, the decimal exponent (DEX) of the dilution end point is usually around 2, or 3, or 4.

Nucleic Acid

The Mr of the genome constitutes 3.8-4.45-5% of the virion by weight. The genome is segmented; multipartite and segments are distributed over several particles of varying size, depending on the length of the genome enclosed; consists of three segments of, or four segments of linear positive-sense, single-stranded RNA. Minor species of non-genomic nucleic acid are also found in virions. The encapsidated nucleic acid is mainly of genomic origin, but virions may also contain nucleic acid of host origin, or nucleic acid of host origin and subgenomic RNA, possibly mRNA. Virions may also contain defective RNA species arising from a deletion of full-length genomic RNA. The complete genome is 9000-11620-15600 nucleotides long.
RNA-1 is sequenced, complete sequence is about 3800-4100-4500 nucleotides long.
RNA-2 is fully sequenced. Complete sequence is 3289-3529-4000 nucleotides long.
RNA-3 is sequenced, but only an estimate is given, complete sequence is 3000-3254-3600 nucleotides long.
RNA-4 is possibly subgenomic has been sequenced, but only an estimate is provided, complete sequence is 800-2000 nucleotides long.
The genome has a base ratio of 20.3-21.9-23.5 % guanine; 27-28.95-30.9 % adenine; 19.4-20.45-21.5 % cytosine; 28-28.7-29.4 % uracil. The 5'-end of the genome has a methylated nucleotide cap (at each RNA species, cap sequence type is m7G5pppGUA. The 3'-terminus has a poly (A) tract (at each RNA species of 8-40 nucleotides length). The 3'-terminus has a tRNA-like structure (at each RNA species of 236-238 nucleotides which accepts tyrosine). The genome has an intergenic poly (A) region. The multipartite genome is divided among more than one type of particle and the segments are distributed between 2 different types of particles, or 4 different types of particles.

GenBank records for nucleotide sequences; complete genome sequences.

Proteins

Proteins constitute about 95-95.5-96% of the particle weight.

The viral genome encodes structural proteins and non-structural proteins. Virions consist of 1 structural protein(s).

Non-Structural Proteins: Virus-coded non-structural proteins have been identified by sequence analysis and 3 non-structural protein(s) are found.

Lipids

Lipids are not reported.

Severity and Occurrence of Disease

Host: Signs and symptoms persist, or disappear soon after infection.

Transmission and Vector Relationships

Virus is not transmitted by a vector. Virus is transmitted by mechanical inoculation; transmitted by grafting; transmitted by seeds, or not transmitted by seeds; transmitted by pollen to the pollinated plant.

Experimental Hosts and Symptoms

Under experimental conditions susceptibility to infection by virus is found in many families, several families, few families.
