Genetic diversity and epidemic histories of rice yellow mottle virus in Ghana
Résumé
Rice yellow mottle virus (RYMV) has persisted as a major biotic constraint to rice production in Africa. However, no data on RYMV epidemics were available in Ghana, although it is an intensive rice-producing country. Surveys were performed from 2010 to 2020 in eleven rice-growing regions of Ghana. Symptom observations and serological detections confirmed that RYMV is circulating in most of these regions. Coat protein gene and complete genome sequencings revealed that RYMV in Ghana almost exclusively belongs to the strain S2, one of the strains covering the largest area in West Africa. We also detected the presence of the S1ca strain which is being reported for the first time outside its area of origin. These results suggested a complex This preprint research paper has not been peer reviewed.
