RESUMO

Partial nucleotide sequences of five tomato infecting Begomovirus isolates were determined from DNA-A fragments, corresponding to the 5' region of the replication associated protein gene, the intergenic region and the 5' region of the coat protein gene. Isolate DFM shared 95% identity with Tomato mottle leaf curl virus (TMoLCV), isolates 34, PA-05, and Ta4 were 88% identical to Tomato yellow vein streak virus and isolate DF-BR3 shared 77% identity with TMoLCV. Recombination analysis indicated that isolate DF-BR3 was a chimaera, and it provided evidence that there is a complex and actively recombining population of tomato infecting begomoviruses in Brazil.
