ICTV Virus Taxonomy Profile: Nyamiviridae
The Nyamiviridae is a family of viruses with unsegmented, negative-sense RNA genomes of 11.3–12.2 kb that produce enveloped, spherical virions. Viruses of the genus Nyavirus are tick-borne and some also infect birds. Other nyamiviruses infecting parasitoid wasps and plant parasitic nematodes have be...

Summary: | The
Nyamiviridae
is a family of viruses with unsegmented, negative-sense RNA genomes of 11.3–12.2 kb that produce enveloped, spherical virions. Viruses of the genus
Nyavirus
are tick-borne and some also infect birds. Other nyamiviruses infecting parasitoid wasps and plant parasitic nematodes have been classified into the genera
Peropuvirus
and
Socyvirus,
respectively. This is a summary of the current International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) Report on the taxonomy of
Nyamiviridae,
