“…Based on serological relationship of NPs, current classification of tospoviruses consists of three related serogroups including iris yellow spot virus, tomato spotted wilt virus and watermelon silver mottle virus (WSMoV) and four distinct serotypes including impatiens necrotic spot virus, panut yellow spot virus, peanut chlorotic fan-spot virus, and melon yellow spot virus (Yeh and Chang, 1995;Chu et al, 2001;Lin et al, 2005;Pappu et al, 2009;Chen et al, 2010;Seepiban et al, 2011). In addition, several new tospovirus species, such as alstroemeria necrotic streak virus, tomato necrotic ringspot virus, soybean vein necrosis-associated virus, bean necrotic mosaic virus, and hippeastrum chlorotic ringspot virus (HCRV) have been identified recently (Hassani-Mehraban et al, 2010;Seepiban et al, 2011;Zhou et al, 2011;de Oliveira et al, 2012;Dong et al, 2013).…”
