Fig 7. Identification of the conserved motifs A to G in the RdRp domain of a novel group of mycoviruses related to SsRV-L.

The RdRp domains of the three newly identified mycoviruses Rhizoctonia solani RNA virus 1 to 3 (RsRV-1, -2, -3) and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum RNA virus L (SsRV-L) (ACE88957.1) were aligned using MEGA 6.06 and the sequence alignment algorithm MUSCLE [45]. Conserved motifs A to G were marked according to Bruenn 2003, Černý et al. 2014, Koonin et al. 1993, Boehr et al. 2014 and Xu et al. 2003 [30, 42–44]. Shading indicates level of conservation and the consensus sequence is displayed.
