Mbeyagala, E.K.; Maina, S.; Macharia, M.W.; Mukasa, S.B.; Holton, T.A. 2019. Illumina Sequencing Reveals the First Near-Complete Genome Sequence of Ugandan Passiflora Virus. Microbiology Resource Announcements 8:

Here, we present the first near-complete genome of Ugandan Passiflora virus (UPV) sequenced from a symptomatic sample of KH7 passion fruit (Passiflora edulis Sims) variety. UPV had limited amino acid identity with other potyviruses known to cause passion fruit woodiness disease (PWD).
