Abstract

Lednice virus (LEDV) has been detected in Culex modestus mosquitoes in several European countries within the last six decades. In this study, phylogenetic analyses of the complete genome segments confirm that LEDV belongs to the Turlock orthobunyavirus (Orthobunyavirus, Peribunyaviridae) species and is closely related to Umbre, Turlock, and Kedah viruses.

Keywords: Lednice virus; Orthobunyavirus; genome; phylogeny.

Alignment of selected Orthobunyavirus M segment amino acid sequences. The conserved arginine residue (signal peptidase cleavage motif between Gn and NSm proteins) is highlighted with red background. Symbols in the bottom line denote conserved sequence (*), conservative mutations (:), semi-conservative mutations (.), and non-conservative mutations ( ).

Phylogenetic analysis of orthobunyavirus complete genome sequences. (A): S segment; (B): M segment, (C): L segment. Sequences are labeled by codes containing the GenBank accession number and virus name. LEDV sequences are marked with red lozenges. The phylograms were generated with the maximum likelihood statistical method; bootstrap percentage values of 500 replicates above 60% are displayed. Horizontal bars on the left represent genetic distances.
