Abstract
Rice necrosis mosaic virus (RNMV) has physico-chemical and biological properties typical of the Bymovirus genus. However, to date no sequenc e data has been reported for RNMV. In this paper we report the use of a PCR primer, designed from an area of high homology between bymovirus es and related macluraviruses within the NIb gene, which generated a 1 .4kb fragment from the 3' terminal region of RNA 1 of RNMV. The sequen ce data generated from this region confirmed the classification of RNM V as a member of the Bymovirus genus.
