Metagenomic analysis of plant viruses associated with papaya ringspot disease in Carica papaya L. in Kenya by Mumo, N.N., Mamati, G.E., Ateka, E.M., Rimberia, F.K., Asudi, G.O., Boykin, L.M., Machuka, Eunice M., Njuguna, Joyce N., Pelle, Roger, Stomeo, Francesca

“…The Carlaviruses include cowpea mild mottle virus (CpMMV) and two putative Carlaviruses-closely related but distinct from cucumber vein-clearing virus (CuVCV) with amino acid and nucleotide sequence identities of 75.7-78.1 and 63.6-67.6%, respectively, in the coat protein genes. In reference to typical symptoms observed in the infected plants, the two putative Carlaviruses were named papaya mottle-associated virus (PaMV) and papaya mild mottle-associated virus (PaMMV). …”
