Abstract

Genome sequences of a novel begomovirus infecting tomato on Guam were obtained using primer-walking and sequencing. The complete genome sequences are 2,750 nucleotides long with a typical monopartite organization and display less than 91% nucleotide sequence identity to other begomoviruses. A provisional name, tomato leaf curl Guam virus (ToLCGuV), is proposed.
