Genus: Chipolycivirus

Genus: Chipolycivirus

Distinguishing features

Among currently classified members of the family, chipolyciviruses are distinguised by the presence of the amino acid triplet ADD instead of GDD in motif VI of the RdRP (Olendraite et al., 2017).

Virion

See discussion under family description.

Genome organisation and replication

See discussion under family description.

Biology

See discussion under family description.

Derivation of names

Chipolyci: from the type species Chironomus riparius virus 1 and polycipivirus. 

Species demarcation criteria

Formal species demarcation criteria have not yet been established. ORF5-encoded amino acid sequence identity between isolates and strains of a species is above 90%.
