ICTV Virus Taxonomy Profile: Lispiviridae 2023

J Gen Virol. 2023 Jul;104(7). doi: 10.1099/jgv.0.001869.

Abstract

Members of the family Lispiviridae are viruses with negative-sense RNA genomes of 6.5-15.5 kb that have mainly been found in arthropods and nematodes. The genomes of lispivirids contain several open reading frames, typically encoding a nucleoprotein (N), a glycoprotein (G), and a large protein (L) including an RNA-directed RNA polymerase (RdRP) domain. This is a summary of the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) Report on the family Lispiviridae, which is available at ictv.global/report/lispiviridae.
