one representative RT-PCR amplicon from a Syrian sample and from a Lebanese sample was directly sequenced in both directions.BLASTn analyses showed 99.6% identify between the Syrian and the Lebanese BEPV isolates, and up to 100% nucleotide sequence identity with other isolates for which information is available in GenBank.Sequences determined in this study were deposited in GenBank as accession numbers OQ657983 (isolate SYR.08 from Syria) and OQ657984 (isolate LEB.15 from Lebanon).This is the first report of BEPV in pepper plants in the Middle East.
