Abstract:
A novel negevirus, tentatively named Manglie virus (MaV), was isolated from Culex tritaeniorhynchus from the village of Manglie, Yunnan, China, in August 2011. It was identified by high-throughput sequencing of cell culture supernatants, and the complete genome was sequenced using an Illumina MiSeq sequencer. The complete MaV genome comprised 9,218 nt encoding three hypothetical proteins and had a poly(A) tail. BLASTn analysis showed that the genome had the greatest similarity to Ngewotan virus strain Nepal22, with query coverage of 100% and 79% identity. Genomic and phylogenetic analyses demonstrated that MaV should be considered a novel negevirus.
