Phylogenomic analysis reveals deep divergence and recombination in an economically important grapevine virus.

The evolutionary history of the exclusively grapevine (Vitis spp.) infecting, grapevine leafroll-associated virus 3 (GLRaV-3) has not been studied extensively, partly due to limited available sequence data.
