Virus classification
Group:
Group IV ((+)ssRNA)
Family:
Genus:
Necrovirus
Type species
Tobacco necrosis virus A

Necrovirus is a genera of Tombusviridae. It is named after the type species, Tobacco necrosis virus A.

Species

Tentative species

  • Lisianthus necrosis (LNV) (tentative)[3]
  • Carnation yellow stripe (tentative)

Status unknown

Morphology

Icosahedral structure, each face containing six identical capsid proteins, arranged in a rotationally symmetric manner.

Vectors

While necroviruses are spread by mechanical means, often relating to propagation, most, if not all, species have a common fungal vector, Olpidium brassicae
