The complete nucleotide sequences of RNA1 and RNA2 of a Japanese isolate of Radish mosaic virus (RaMV-J), a crucifer-infecting comovirus, were determined. RNA1 is 6064 nucleotides long and encodes a 210-kDa polyprotein containing conserved motifs that are required for replication. RNA2 is 4020 nucleotides long and encodes a 123-kDa polyprotein containing the putative movement protein and two coat proteins. Comparisons of the encoded proteins confirmed that RaMV-J and a Czech RaMV isolate are isolates of the same species in the genus Comovirus. A phylogenetic analysis of RaMV-J and other comoviruses revealed that legume-infecting comoviruses constitute a single branch to which RaMV is distantly related.
