The family Endornaviridae includes viruses with linear, single-stranded, positive-sense RNA genomes that range from 9.7 to 17.6 kb and have been reported infecting plants, fungi and oomycetes. The family consists of two genera, Alphaendornavirus and Betaendornavirus, into which viruses are classified based on their genome size, host and presence of unique domains. Alphaendornavirus includes species whose members infect plants, fungi and oomycetes, while the genus Betaendornavirus includes species whose members infect ascomycete fungi. This is a summary of the ICTV Report on the family Endornaviridae, which is available at www.ictv.global/report/endornaviridae.
