The process of ratifying the next update to the ICTV taxonomy is underway. ICTV Members (consisting of Executive Committee (EC) Members, Subcommittee Members, Study Group Chairs, Life Members, and National Members) are currently voting to ratify the proposals discussed and approved by the EC during its 53rd meeting in July, 2021. The EC has approved 172 separate proposals describing thousands of proposed taxonomic changes for consideration by the ICTV membership.

Between 1971 and 2012, nine ICTV Reports were published. Publication usually followed the formal approval of taxonomic proposals at plenary meetings of the ICTV held during International Congresses of Virology. These reports provide milestones by which the progress in virus taxonomy can be tracked.  Read more about Report History Report Information Editors Editors Name Picture Position Institution Email Adriaenssens, Evelien Read more about Editors Report Information Abbreviations Abbreviations In addition to universally accepted abbreviations such as DNA and RNA, it is common practice to use abbreviations for virological and technical words in virology. In the Report, we have adopted commonly used abbreviations (e.g. CP for capsid protein and NC for nucleocapsid). These have been approved by the Executive Committee of ICTV for use in the ICTV Report but have no official status. The abbreviations will be used without definition throughout the book, except in a few instances where Study Group conventions (e.g. Read more about Abbreviations Report Information Acknowledgments Acknowledgments The International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) has the task of developing a single, universal taxonomic scheme for all viruses irrespective of host. The Executive Committee coordinates a series of subcommittees and study groups that draw on the experience of a large number of virol­ogists throughout the world and their collective efforts are represented by this Report.  Read more about Acknowledgments Subscribe to International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses Search   Unless otherwise noted, this work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License Support is provided by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, U.S. National Institutes of Health, Award U24AI162625   Copyright © 2024 (ICTV)  |  Privacy  |  Disclaimer  |
