ICTV Virus Taxonomy Profile: Marnaviridae 2021

The family Marnaviridae comprises small non-enveloped viruses with positive-sense RNA genomes of 8.6–9.6 kb. Isolates infect marine single-celled eukaryotes (protists) that come from diverse lineages. Some members are known from metagenomic studies of ocean virioplankton, with additional unclassifie...

Sumario:The family Marnaviridae comprises small non-enveloped viruses with positive-sense RNA genomes of 8.6–9.6 kb. Isolates infect marine single-celled eukaryotes (protists) that come from diverse lineages. Some members are known from metagenomic studies of ocean virioplankton, with additional unclassified viruses described from metagenomic datasets derived from marine and freshwater environments. This is a summary of the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) Report on the family Marnaviridae, which is available at ictv.global/report/marnaviridae.
