Tospoviruses (Genus Tospovirus， Family Bunyaviridae) are phytopathogens responsible for significant worldwide crop losses. They have a tripartite negative and ambisense RNA genome segments， termed S (Small)， M (Medium) and L (Large) RNA. The vector-transmission is mediated by thrips in a circulative-propagative manner. For new tospovirus species acceptance， several analyses are needed， e.g.， the determination of the viral protein sequences for enlightenment of their evolutionary history.
