A novel deltacryptic virus identified in Allium cepa from Brazil.

 This work describes a novel partitivirus genome assembled from RNA-seq data generated from onion tissue from fields in Brazil. A new partitivirus genome composed of three dsRNAs, which was closely related to arhar cryptic virus 1, was assembled from Allium cepa samples from Brazil. The genomic sequences were also identified from available transcriptomic datasets of onion samples from China, Czech Republic, India, South Korea and USA.
