Complete Genome Sequences of Four Isolates of Plutella xylostella Granulovirus

Genome Announc. 2016 Jun 30;4(3):e00633-16. doi: 10.1128/genomeA.00633-16.

Abstract

Granuloviruses are widespread pathogens of Plutella xylostella L. (diamondback moth) and potential biopesticides for control of this global insect pest. We report the complete genomes of four Plutella xylostella granulovirus isolates from China, Malaysia, and Taiwan exhibiting pairs of noncoding, homologous repeat regions with significant sequence variation but equivalent length.
