Differentiating between viruses and virus species by writing their names correctly

Francisco Murilo Zerbini et al.

Summary: Following the ICTV Ratification Vote in March 2021, a standard two-part binomial nomenclature is now the standard for naming virus species. The adoption of this new nomenclature is still in its early stages, making it timely to clarify the distinction between viruses and virus species and provide guidelines for their correct naming and writing.

Naryaviridae, Nenyaviridae, and Vilyaviridae: three new families of single-stranded DNA viruses in the phylum Cressdnaviricota

Mart Krupovic et al.

Summary: This study reports the creation of new orders and families within the phylum Cressdnaviricota, expanding the classification of viruses associated with protozoan parasites. A sequence-based taxonomic framework was used to classify 60 ssDNA viruses into different genera and species. The challenges in classifying chimeric virus genomes are highlighted.

Interspecies Recombination Has Driven the Macroevolution of Cassava Mosaic Begomoviruses

Alvin Crespo-Bellido et al.

Summary: Begomoviruses significantly impact crop production and food security worldwide by emerging new genotypes through high mutation frequencies and recombination. Recombination has driven speciation in the cassava mosaic begomovirus species complex, significantly impacting genetic diversity. CMD caused by these viruses poses a significant threat to cassava production in Africa and Asia.
