Lichuan virus isolate JXLC1806-2 segments S, M, and L

Nucleotide sequence analysis showed that the JXLC1806-2 virus genome was composed of S segment (GenBank number: MT198371), M segment (GenBank number: MT198372), and L segment (GenBank number: MT198373) segments, and the nucleotide and amino acid sequence lengths of the open reading frames of the S, M, and L segments were 774 nt (258 aa), 4299 nt (1433 aa), and 6840 nt (2280 aa), respectively. A comparison of the nucleotide and amino acid sequences of the segments of the open reading frame of the JXLC1806-2 virus with the corresponding segments of the Tete serogroup virus of the Orthobunyavirus genus showed that the JXLC1806-2 virus had 66.5% (Batama virus) to 75.0% (Matruh virus) of nucleotide identity, and 69.8% (Batama virus) to 77.2% (Bahig virus) of amino acid similarity with the S segment of other viruses in this group; 70.2% (Tete virus) to 78.0% (Matruh virus), and 75.1% (Tete virus) to 86.2% (Marruh virus) with the M segment; and 74.5% (I612045 virus) to 80.4% (Matruh virus), and 81.6% (I612045 virus) to 92.2% (Matruh virus) with the L segment
