Quwivirus is a genus of viruses in the subfamily Betaherpesvirinae , in the family Herpesviridae , in the order Herpesvirales. [1]
The genus consists of the following three species: [2]
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a genus of viruses in the order Herpesvirales, in the family Herpesviridae, in the subfamily Betaherpesvirinae. Humans and other primates serve as natural hosts. The 11 species in this genus include human betaherpesvirus 5, which is the species that infects humans. Diseases associated with HHV-5 include mononucleosis and pneumonia. In the medical literature, most mentions of CMV without further specification refer implicitly to human CMV. Human CMV is the most studied of all cytomegaloviruses.
Roseolovirus is a genus of viruses in the order Herpesvirales, in the family Herpesviridae, in the subfamily Betaherpesvirinae. There are currently six species in this genus. Diseases associated with this genus include: HHV-6: sixth disease ; HHV-7: symptoms analog to the 'sixth disease'.
Muromegalovirus is a genus of viruses in the order Herpesvirales, in the family Herpesviridae, in the subfamily Betaherpesvirinae. Rodents serve as natural hosts. There are three species in this genus. Diseases associated with this genus include: infected peritoneal macrophages, dendritic cells (DC) and hepatocytes, inducing significant pathology in both the spleen and the liver. Murid viruses Murid betaherpesvirus 1 (MuHV-1) and Murid betaherpesvirus 2 (MuHV-2), previously defined as mouse cytomegalovirus (MCMV) and rat cytomegalovirus (RCMV), belong to this genus.
Proboscivirus is a genus of viruses in the order Herpesvirales, in the family Herpesviridae, in the subfamily Betaherpesvirinae. Elephants serve as natural hosts. EEHV1 is apathogenic for African elephants but causes fatal haemorrhagic disease in Asian elephants. The name "Proboscivirus" comes from the Greek word προβοσκίς or "proboscis" meaning "the elephant trunk," for which the virus accordingly uses as its means of contraction and transmission to enter the elephant's body.
Aotine betaherpesvirus 1 (AoHV-1) is a species of virus in the genus Cytomegalovirus, subfamily Betaherpesvirinae, family Herpesviridae, and order Herpesvirales.
Cebine betaherpesvirus 1 (CbHV-1) is a species of virus in the genus Cytomegalovirus, subfamily Betaherpesvirinae, family Herpesviridae, and order Herpesvirales.
Macacine betaherpesvirus 3 (McHV-3) is a species of virus in the genus Cytomegalovirus, subfamily Betaherpesvirinae, family Herpesviridae, and order Herpesvirales.
Macacine betaherpesvirus 8 (McHV-8) is a species of virus in the genus Cytomegalovirus, subfamily Betaherpesvirinae, family Herpesviridae, and order Herpesvirales.
Papiine betaherpesvirus 3 (PaHV-3) is a species of virus in the genus Cytomegalovirus, subfamily Betaherpesvirinae, family Herpesviridae, and order Herpesvirales.
Papiine betaherpesvirus 4 (PaHV-4) is a species of virus in the genus Cytomegalovirus, subfamily Betaherpesvirinae, family Herpesviridae, and order Herpesvirales.
Saimiriine betaherpesvirus 4 (SaHV-4) is a species of virus in the genus Cytomegalovirus, subfamily Betaherpesvirinae, family Herpesviridae, and order Herpesvirales.
Murid betaherpesvirus 1 (MuHV-1) is a species of virus in the genus Muromegalovirus, subfamily Betaherpesvirinae, family Herpesviridae, and order Herpesvirales.
Murid betaherpesvirus 2 (MuHV-2) is a species of virus in the genus Muromegalovirus, subfamily Betaherpesvirinae, family Herpesviridae, and order Herpesvirales.
Murid betaherpesvirus 8 (MuHV-8) is a species of virus in the genus Muromegalovirus, subfamily Betaherpesvirinae, family Herpesviridae, and order Herpesvirales.
Elephantid betaherpesvirus 5 (ElHV-5) is a species of virus in the genus Proboscivirus, subfamily Betaherpesvirinae, family Herpesviridae, and order Herpesvirales.
Human betaherpesvirus 6B (HHV-6B) is a species of virus in the genus Roseolovirus, subfamily Betaherpesvirinae, family Herpesviridae, and order Herpesvirales.
Macacine betaherpesvirus 9 (McHV-9) is a species of virus in the genus Roseolovirus, subfamily Betaherpesvirinae, family Herpesviridae, and order Herpesvirales.
Caviid betaherpesvirus 2 (CaHV-2) is a species of virus in the genus Quwivirus, in the subfamily Betaherpesvirinae, family Herpesviridae, and order Herpesvirales.
Tupaiid betaherpesvirus 1 (TuHV-1) is a species of virus in the genus Quwivirus in the subfamily Betaherpesvirinae, family Herpesviridae, and order Herpesvirales.
Miniopterid betaherpesvirus 1 (MschBHV1) is a species of virus in the genus Quwivirus in the subfamily Betaherpesvirinae, family Herpesviridae, and order Herpesvirales.
