Satellite RNA associated with bamboo mosaic potexvirus shares similarity with satellites associated with sobemoviruses

Arch Virol. 1995;140(8):1511-4. doi: 10.1007/BF01322678.

Abstract

A putative nonstructural protein encoded by a satellite RNA associated with bamboo mosaic potexvirus shares 46% identity with the capsid protein of satellite virus of panicum mosaic sobemovirus. The sequence similarity among satellite plant viruses which have no apparent relationship implies a common origin.
