TL;DR: In this paper, the changes to virus taxonomy approved and ratified by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) in March 2017 are presented, and the changes are described in detail.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic content and evolution of adenoviruses.
TL;DR: The antiquity of the pre-vertebrate lineages that ultimately gave rise to the Adenoviridae is illustrated by morphological similarities between adenoviruses and bacteriophages, and by use of a protein-primed DNA replication strategy by adenOViruses, certain bacteria and bacter iophage, and linear plasmids of fungi and plants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gorbalenya,Balázs Harrach,Roger Hull,Andrew M. Q. King,Eugene V. Koonin,Mart Krupovic,Jens H. Kuhn,Elliot J. Lefkowitz,Max L. Nibert,Richard J. Orton,Marilyn J. Roossinck,Sead Sabanadzovic,Matthew B. Sullivan,Curtis A. Suttle,Curtis A. Suttle,Robert B. Tesh,René van der Vlugt,Arvind Varsani,F. Murilo Zerbini +28 more
TL;DR: The rationale for why metagenomic sequence data should, and how it can, be incorporated into the ICTV taxonomy is considered, and present proposals that have been endorsed by the Executive Committee of the ITV.
Journal ArticleDOI
New Adenovirus Species Found in a Patient Presenting with Gastroenteritis
Morris S. Jones,Balázs Harrach,Robert D. Ganac,Mary M. A. Gozum,Wilfred P. dela Cruz,Brian Riedel,Chao Pan,Eric Delwart,David P. Schnurr +8 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that HAdV-52 may be one of many agents causing gastroenteritis of unknown etiology, and was so divergent from the known human adenoviruses that it was not only a new type but also represented a new species (humanAdenovirus G).
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection and Analysis of Six Lizard Adenoviruses by Consensus Primer PCR Provides Further Evidence of a Reptilian Origin for the Atadenoviruses
James F. X. Wellehan,April J. Johnson,Balázs Harrach,Mária Benko,Allan P. Pessier,Calvin M. Johnson,Michael M. Garner,April L. Childress,Elliott R. Jacobson +8 more
TL;DR: Phylogenetic analysis indicated that these viruses belong to the genus Atadenovirus, supporting the reptilian origin of atadenoviruses.
