TL;DR: The new plant virus family Flexiviridae is described, named because its members have flexuous virions and it includes the existing genera Allexivirus, Capillovirus, Carlav virus, Foveavirus, Potexvirus, Trichovirus and Vitivirus plus the new genus Mandarivirus together with some related viruses not assigned to any genus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Family Flexiviridae: a case study in virion and genome plasticity.
TL;DR: A common evolutionary ancestor for the family Tymoviridae and the two distinct evolutionary clusters of the Flexiviridae is postulate, i.e., a plant virus with a polyadenylated genome, filamentous virions, and a triple gene block of movement proteins, which would have generated a very diverse group of plant and fungal viruses.

TL;DR: The mealybug-transmitted species have been separated from the genus Closterovirus and accommodated in a new genus named Ampelovirus (from ampelos, Greek for grapevine), and the family now comprises three genera.
