List of Species Demarcation Criteria in the Genus

Tobamoviruses have historically been designated as strains of TMV, but many of these are now defined as separate species based on nucleotide sequence data.

The criteria demarcating species in the genus are:

  • Sequence similarity; less than 10% overall nt sequence difference is considered to characterize strains of the same species, although most of the sequenced species have considerably less than 90% sequence identity,
  • Host range; however many of these viruses have wider and more overlapping host ranges in experimental rather than natural situations,
  • Antigenic relationships between the CPs.
  • List of Species in the Genus

    Similarity with other Taxa

    The 124-132 kDa and 181-189 kDa non-structural proteins contain conserved motifs common to the RdRp of many viruses, and are most similar to the corresponding proteins of Tobacco rattle virus. The 28-31 kDa MP is the prototypical plant virus MP and resembles MPs of a wide variety of plant viruses, including Tobacco rattle virus. The 17-18 kDa structural protein share similarities with those of other plant viruses that form rodshaped virions.

    Derivation of Names

    Tobamo: sigla from tobacco mosaic virus.
