    List of Species Demarcation Criteria in the Genus

    The criteria demarcating species in the genus are:
  • Serological relatedness,
  • Compatibility of replicase proteins (1a and 2a proteins),
        but these distinctions may break down in the case of naturally occurring reassortants,
  • Sequence similarity.
  • Serology and nucleotide sequence similarity is used to distinguish subgroups within a species. Subgroups generally have at least 65% sequence similarity.

    Similarity with other Taxa

    The viruses are members of the "alpha-like" supergroup, sharing sequence similarity in the 1a protein domains for Mtr and Hel activities, and in the 2a protein polymerase domain with members of the genera Tobravirus, Hordeivirus, Tobamovirus, Potexvirus, Carlavirus, and Tymovirus, and animal viruses in the family Togaviridae. The 3a proteins of bromoviruses and the 35 kDa protein of the members of the genus Dianthovirus (RCNMV) form a distinct "family" of movement-associated proteins. Raspberry bushy dwarf virus (genus Idaeovirus) is similar to bromoviruses in genome organization and in the sequence of certain genes.

    Derivation of Names

    Alfamo: derived from Alfalfa mosaic virus.
    Bromo: derived from Brome mosaic, also, from Bromus (host of Brome mosaic virus).
    Cucumo: derived from Cucumber mosaic virus.
    Ilar: derived from isometric labile ringspot.
    Olea: derived from the genus name of the host, olive (Olea).
