Abstract
The complete genome sequence of a garlic common latent virus (GarCLV) isolate collected from NHRDF, Karnal, India was determined. The whole genome of this GarCLV isolate consists of 8573 nucleotides, excluding the 3'-end poly-A tail. The sequence is 91-93% similar to rest of the five whole genome sequences available till date. It contains six open reading frames (ORFs) which encode polypeptide of 219 kDa, 25 kDa, 11 kDa, 7 kDa, 32.74 kDa and 15 kDa from ORF1, ORF2, ORF3, ORF4, ORF5 and ORF6 respectively. The phylogenetic study based on coat protein sequence demonstrated high diversity present among Indian population of GarCLV.
