  abstract = {{P}earl millet ({P}ennisetum glaucum ({L}.) {R}. {B}r.) is a staple food that is widely cultivated in sub-{S}aharan {A}frica. {I}n {A}ugust 2018, a survey was conducted in the main producing regions of {B}urkina {F}aso, and leaf samples were analyzed using virion-associated nucleic acid ({VANA})-based metagenomic approach and {I}llumina sequencing. {A} new virus, tentatively named "{P}ennisetum glaucum marafivirus" ({PGMV}), was detected, and its complete nucleotide sequence of 6364 nucleotides was determined. {T}he sequence contains a large open reading frame ({ORF}) encoding a polyprotein of 224.2 k{D}a with five domains (methyltransferase, papain-like protease, helicase, {RNA}-dependent {RNA} polymerase, and coat proteins), typical of marafiviruses. {A}dditionally, a characteristic conserved marafibox domain was detected in the genome. {T}he nucleotide sequence of the complete {PGMV} genome shares 68.5% identity with that of sorghum bicolor marafivirus, and its coat protein shares 58.5% identity with that of oat blue dwarf virus. {P}hylogenetic analysis confirmed that the pearl millet virus is unambiguously grouped with members of the genus {M}arafivirus in the family {T}ymoviridae. {T}his is the first report on the occurrence of a marafivirus in pearl millet.},
