Mitovirus
Virus classification
Group:
Group IV ((+)ssRNA)
Family:
Narnaviridae
Genus:
Mitovirus
Type Species

Mitovirus is a genus of viruses, in the family Narnaviridae. Fungi serve as natural hosts. There are currently five species in this genus including the type species Cryphonectria mitovirus 1.[1][2]

Taxonomy

Group: ssRNA(+)

Order: Unassigned

[2]

Structure

Genomes are linear and non-segmented.[1]

Genus Structure Symmetry Capsid Genomic Arrangement Genomic Segmentation
Mitovirus No structural proteins Non-Enveloped Linear Monopartite

Life Cycle

Viral replication is cytoplasmic. Replication follows the positive stranded RNA virus replication model. Positive stranded RNA virus transcription is the method of transcription. The virus exits the host cell by cell to cell movement. Fungi serve as the natural host.[1]
