Rice yellow mottle virus (RYMV) is a plant pathogenic virus, belonging to the genus Sobemovirus. The genome is a positive-sense single strand RNA of 4450 nucleotides in length and is not polyadenylated.[1] It was first reported in Kenya in 1966[2] in one of Africa's first cultivation intensification schemes, due to RYMV's association with intensification,[P 1] but DNA analysis of its evolutionary history shows it to have evolved in East Africa in the 19th century.[T 1][P 2][P 3] Since its identification in Kenya it has been detected in many countries in sub-Saharan Africa.[3] It has also been detected in Central Africa, but has yet to be seen outside the continent.[4] The genomic organization of RYMV is most similar to that of Cocksfoot mottle sobemovirus.[4] RYMV is one of the better-studied plant-virus pathosystems.[T 2][5]
