    Mushroom bacilliform virus

[U07551]

(MBV)




Tentative Species in the Genus

None reported.

List of Unassigned Viruses in the Family

None reported.

Similarity with other Taxa

The aa sequences of the putative chymotrypsin-related serine protease and RdRp suggest an evolutionary relationship with some ssRNA positive-sense plant viruses, particularly poleroviruses, sobemoviruses and enamoviruses.

Derivation of Names

Barna: sigla from bacilliform-shaped RNA viruses.
