Abstract Southern tomato virus (STV) from genus Amalgavirus (Family Amalgaviridae) is a persistent virus infecting tomato crops worldwide. Information on genetic diversity and evolutionary mechanisms for plant persistent viruses are very scarce in comparison with plant acute viruses. In this work, the putative coat protein gene of worldwide STV isolates was analyzed showing very low nucleotide diversity ( 0.100). Regarding the acute viruses, the nucleotide diversity was variable ranging from 0.0090 ± 0.0019 to 0.2846 ± 0.0402. The two members of the genus Tenuivirus infecting rice plants showed a nucleotide diversity of 0.0202 ± 0.0030 and 0.0338 ± 0.0038. The phylogenetic tree of STV showed two clades or groups of STV isolates: Group A with isolates from Spain, Mexico, UK, Dominican Republic, USA, South Korea Bangladesh and China; and Group B with isolates from Switzerland and China (Fig. 1 and Supplementary Table S3). The mean nucleotide distance between both groups was 0.0112 ± 0.0028 whereas within Group A and Group B were 0.0012 ± 0.0004 and 0.0018 ± 0.0010, respectively. No correlation between the geographic and nucleotide distance was found and some isolates from different countries had identical nucleotide sequences such
