Discovery and Diagnosis of a New Sobemovirus Infecting Showing Leaf Yellow Mosaic and Dwarfism Using Small-RNA High Throughput Sequencing.

is a profitable crop in Valencia, Spain, but the emergence of a disease causing of leaf yellow mosaic, dwarfism, and a drastic decrease in tuber production has become a problem. The small-RNA high-throughput sequencing (HTS) of a diseased plant identified only one virus, which could be the causal agent of this disease. The amino-acid comparison with viral sequences from GenBank and phylogenetic analyses indicated that this was a new species of genus and the name was proposed.
