Classification

This is a description of a(n) bacterial, fungal, invertebrate and plant satellite at the category equivalent to family level.

ICTVdB Virus Code: 81. Virus accession number: 81_SubVi. Former virus code: 81.064.; 64.; former accession number: 81064FAM; 64000000.
NCBI TaxID: [12877].

Name, Synonyms and Lineage

The taxon is an artificial holding bin for unassigned species.

Taxonomic Proposals and Changes

Satellites are sub-viral agents composed of nucleic acid molecules that depend for their productive multiplication on co-infection of a host cell with a helper virus. Satellite nucleic acids have substantially distinct nucleotide sequences from those of the genomes of either their helper virus or host. When a satellite encodes the coat protein in which its nucleic acid is encapsidated it is referred to as a satellite virus.

Virion Properties

Introduction

Nucleic acid is not encapsidated and virus relies for encapsidation on a helper virus.

Morphology

Satellite . Capsid is round and exhibits icosahedral symmetry. Is isometric.

Nucleic Acid

The genome is single-stranded, or double-stranded DNA, or RNA. Reference(s) to sequence databases at GenBank and specialty databases: at GenBank; complete genomes.

Translation: Virions are associated with helper virus and dependent on co-infection of helper virus during replication, or are associated with helper virus, but independent from its functions during replication.

Biological Properties

Natural Host Range

Viral hosts belong to the Domain Eucarya.

Domain Eucarya Kingdom Plantae, or Animalia.

Kingdom Plantae Phylum Magnoliophyta (Angiosperms).

Kingdom Animalia Phylum Arthropoda.

Phylum Arthropoda Subphylum Hexapoda; Class Insecta.
