| Abstract |
In 2013, we published the first report of a novel potyvirus isolate, which was tentatively named squash chlorosis mottling virus (SqCMV), from an infected squash plant (Cucurbita pepo) collected in the Homestead area of Florida. The purpose of the current work was to further characterize the virus isolate based on molecular properties, and to determine its relationship to other potyviruses. The complete genome sequence of the virus was 10,292 nucleotides (nt), consisting of a 5'-UTR (182 nt), a complete ORF (10,098 nt) encoding a polyprotein of 3,365 amino acids, a motif for the PIPO protein and a 3'-UTR (112 nt), but excluding the poly-(A) tail. Phylogenetic analysis based on the complete genome and amino acid sequences revealed that the virus from Florida clustered with the type isolate of the newly described potyvirus zucchini tigré mosaic virus (ZTMV) sharing 82-90% nucleotide and 83-86% amino acid identities, respectively. Recombination analysis confirmed one major recombination event in the putative P1 coding region of the virus with the putative parental sequences predicted to resemble to ZTMV-Venezuela and France isolates. In addition, genetic diversity analysis indicated that the CP gene was under the highest selection pressure compared to other genes. Together, these results suggest that SqCMV and ZTMV are both representative isolates of the same species, Zucchini tiger mosaic virus. We present the first complete genome sequence of the ZTMV-HFL isolate from the USA. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 23 November 2017.
All research outputs
#18,576,855
of 23,008,860 outputs
Outputs from Archives of Virology
#3,057
of 4,207 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#325,441
of 437,733 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Archives of Virology
#30
of 74 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,008,860 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,207 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.8. This one is in the 18th percentile – i.e., 18% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 437,733 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 14th percentile – i.e., 14% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 74 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 36th percentile – i.e., 36% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
