Abstract

A natural densovirus (DNV) of a serious phytophagous pest, Helicoverpa armigera, was isolated. The genome of HaDNV contained 6,039 nucleotides (nt) and included inverted terminal repeats (ITRs) of 545 nt with terminal Y-shaped hairpins of 126 nt. Its DNA sequence and ambisense organization with four typical open reading frames (ORFs) demonstrated that it belonged to the genus Densovirus in the subfamily Densovirinae of the family Parvoviridae.
