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, which is available at www.ictv.global/report/nyamiviridae .
