Quadriviridae is a family of viruses. Fungi serve as natural hosts. There is currently only one species in this family: the type species Rosellinia necatrix quadrivirus 1.[1][2]
Taxonomy
Group: dsRNA
Order: Unassigned
- Family: Quadriviridae

- Rosellinia necatrix quadrivirus 1
Structure
Viruses in Quadriviridae are non-enveloped. The diameter is around 48 nm. Genomes are linear and segmented, around 16.8kb in length. The genome codes for 4 proteins.[1]
| Genus | Structure | Symmetry | Capsid | Genomic Arrangement | Genomic Segmentation |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Quadrivirus | Non-Enveloped | Linear | Segmented |
Life Cycle
Viral replication is cytoplasmic. Entry into the host cell is achieved by penetration into the host cell. Replication follows the double-stranded RNA virus replication model. Double-stranded RNA virus transcription is the method of transcription. Fungi serve as the natural host.[1]
| Genus | Host Details | Tissue Tropism | Entry Details | Release Details | Replication Site | Assembly Site | Transmission |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Quadrivirus | Fungi | None | Unknown | Cytoplasmic exchange; hyphal anastomosis; sporogenesis | Unknown | Unknown | Cytoplasmic exchange; hyphal anastomosis; sporogenesis |
