ABSTRACT
Fig mosaic virus (FMV) and Fig badnavirus-1 (FBV-1) are two of the most important fig infecting viruses. The incidence and distribution of FBV-1 and FMV were determined by testing in PCR 138 asymptomatic and symptomatic samples. These samples were 
collected from 60 fig gardens and agricultural fields in three provinces of Iran. The fig infecting viruses FBV-1 and FMV, respectively, were  detected  in  92  (66.6%)  and  34  (24.6%)  samples  collected  from  all  the  surveyed  fields.  Overall,  24  out  of  138  (17.3%)  samples showed  mixed  infections.  The  sequence  analysis  of  a  genomic  fragment  of  922  nt,  comprising  the  entire  ORF-2  and  part  of  the  5’ termini of the ORF-3 of 10 selected FBV-1 Iranian isolates from different provinces, and of the type member from GenBank (Acc. No: JF411989),  showed  a  variation  ranging  from  1  to  3%  at  nucleotide  level  and  1%  at  the  amino  acid  level.  The  phylogenetic  analysis grouped the FBV-1 isolates into two groups, with the Iranian isolates clustered in two distinct subgroups of group I, according to their geographical origin. In our research, the prevalence and sequence analysis of FBV-1 as the only identified DNA virus infecting fig trees, was studied for the first time in Iran.
