Complete Genome Sequence of Rice Tungro Bacilliform Virus Infecting Asian Rice (Oryza sativa) in Malaysia.

Rice tungro disease was discovered in Malaysia in the 1930s. The first and only genome of Rice tungro bacilliform virus (RTBV) isolated from rice in Malaysia was sequenced in 1999. After nearly two decades, here, we present the complete genome sequence of an RTBV isolate in rice from Seberang Perai, Malaysia.
