To investigate the prevalence and genetic diversity of Grapevine berry inner necrosis virus (GINV) in China, 195 grapevine samples from 15 Chinese provinces and regions were tested using reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction. The samples included symptomatic and asymptomatic cultivars, with 35.9% (70 of 195) of samples testing positive for GINV. Seventeen samples had obvious ring spot symptoms, and 94.1% (16 of 17) tested positive for GINV, suggesting that GINV may be highly associated with the ring spot symptom. The genetic diversity of GINV isolates was analyzed based on the partial nucleotide and amino acid sequences of the coat protein (CP) and movement protein (MP) genes. Phylogenetic analyses of the MP and CP gene sequences divided the GINV isolates into three groups. The majority of the Chinese isolates were in groups 1 and 2, and only one Chinese isolate, along with a previously reported Japanese isolate, was in group 3. This is the first report on the genetic diversity of GINV isolates and their prevalence and distribution in China.
