Unassigned viruses

Unassigned viruses in family Nanoviridae

The taxonomic status of coconut foliar decay virus (CFDV) is uncertain. CFDV was previously considered to belong to an unassigned species in the family Nanoviridae on the basis of a nucleotide sequence [GenBank M29963] that now appears to be an alphasatellite sequence. The virus is transmitted by a planthopper in contrast to the aphid-vectored nanovirids.
