Barley stripe mosaic virus (BSMV) is a representative of the hordeiviruses which has a functionally fragmented RNA genom. 3'-terminal nucleotide sequence of the noncoding region of BSMV RNA 2 has been determined. This region contains the internal olygo(A) sequence (n = 21) and the tyrosine accepting tRNA-like structure at 3'-extreme end. tRNA-like sequence can fold into the two distinct secondary structure which strikingly similar to such a structures which has been proposed recently for cucumo- and bromoviruses.
