| (unranked): | Virus |
| Class: | Naldaviricetes |
| Order: | Lefavirales |
| Family: | Hytrosaviridae |
| Genus: | Muscavirus |
Muscavirus is a genus of viruses, in the family Hytrosaviridae. [1] The fly Musca domestica is the natural host. There is only one species in this genus: Musca hytrosavirus. Diseases associated with this genus include: salivary gland hypertrophy, and complete sterility of infected female flies by inhibiting eggs development. [2] [3]
Viruses in the genus Muscavirus are enveloped, with rod-shaped geometries. The diameter is around 50 nm. Genomes are circular, around 124kb in length. The genome has 108 open reading frames. [2] [3]
| Genus | Structure | Symmetry | Capsid | Genomic arrangement | Genomic segmentation |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Muscavirus | Rod-shaped | Enveloped | Circular | Monopartite |
Viral replication is nuclear. DNA-templated transcription is the method of transcription. Musca domestica serve as the natural host. Transmission routes are parental and contamination. [2] [3]
| Genus | Host details | Tissue tropism | Entry details | Release details | Replication site | Assembly site | Transmission |
