We isolated a novel mycovirus, Fusarium graminearum mycotymovirus 1 (FgMTV1/SX64), which is related to members of the family Tymoviridae, from the plant pathogenic fungus F. graminearum strain SX64. The complete 7863 nucleotide sequence of FgMTV1/SX64, excluding the poly (A) tail, was determined. The genome of FgMTV1/SX64 is predicted to contain four open reading frames (ORFs). The largest ORF1 is 6723 nucleotides (nt) in length and encodes a putative polyprotein of 2242 amino acids (aa), which contains four conserved domains, a methyltransferase (Mtr), tymovirus endopeptidase (Pro), viral RNA helicase (Hel), and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), of the replication-associated proteins (RPs) of the positive-strand RNA viruses. ORFs 2-4 putatively encode three putative small hypothetical proteins, but their functions are still unknown. Sequence alignments and phylogenetic analyses based on the putative RP protein and the three conserved domains (Mtr, Hel and RdRp) showed that FgMTV1/SX64 is most closely related to, but distinctly branched from, the viruses from the family Tymoviridae. Although FgMTV1/SX64 infection caused mild or no effect on conidia production, biomass and virulence of its host F. graminearum strain SX64, its infection had significant effects on the growth rate, colony diameter and deoxynivalenol (DON) production. This is the first molecular characterization of a tymo-like mycovirus isolated from a plant pathogenic fungus. It is proposed that the mycovirus FgMTV1/SX64 is a representative member of new proposed lineage Mycotymovirus in the family Tymoviridae.
