Iteradensovirus from the Monarch Butterfly, Danaus plexippus plexippus. [PDF]

Genome Announc, 2014
ABSTRACT The 5,006-nucleotide (nt)-long genome of a new virus from monarch butterfly pupae was cloned and sequenced. It was flanked by inverted terminal repeats (ITRs) of 239 nt with 163-nt hairpins. The monosense genome with three open reading frames is typical of the genus Iteradensovirus in the ...
