The Tymovirales are a newly established order of viruses in the 2009 classification with four families. This group consists of viruses which have (+) sense single stranded RNA genomes without DNA intermediates. Their genetic material is protected by a special coat protein.
Description
The Tymovirales are mainly plant pathogens first described in 2004.[1] They are characterised by similarities in their replication-associated polyproteins. These account for the majority of their genomic coding capacity. They are considered to form a group, phylogenetically, referred to as flexiviruses, with filamentous virions.[2]
Additional species
A new virus - Sclerotinia sclerotiorum deltaflexivirus 1 - has been described that appears to belong to a new genus in this family.[3] The name Deltaflexiviridae has been proposed for this genus.
