Characterization of an unusual carlavirus-like RNA from papaya (Carica papaya) lacking essential genes.

We report the characterization of a novel carlavirus-like RNA, provisionally named papaya defective virus 1 (PapDfV1), identified through high-throughput sequencing of papaya latex RNA. PapDfV1 contains two open reading frames (ORFs): ORF 1 encodes a 211.1 kDa replicase with 96% sequence identity to...
