The sequence of a sat-RNA of cucumber mosaic virus (CMV-Rs) originally isolated from Raphanus sativus in Huangzhou, Zhejiang, China in April 1998 was determined. This satellite consisted of 368 nucleotides (nt). When compared with the nucleotide sequences of 12 CMV sat-RNAs, ranging from 334 to 405 nt, 3 groups and 4 subgroups were identified. The sequence similarity and grouping were not related to the sizes of the sat-RNAs.
