The full-length AU-rich (63.14%) 2,794-nucleotide sequence of Rhizoctonia mitovirus K1 (RMV-K1) isolated from the binucleate AG-K strain FAS2909W was determined. The positive strand of RMV-K1 contains a large open reading frame (ORF) when the fungal mitochondrial genetic code is used. This ORF was predicted to encode an RdRp protein exhibiting the highest sequence identity (41.77%) to Rhizoctonia solani mitovirus 30. Phylogenetic analysis showed that RMV-K1 is a novel member of the genus Mitovirus, family Mitoviridae. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
