Family: Lispiviridae
Genus: Ganiavirus
Distinguishing features
Members of the genus Ganiavirus are distinguished from members of other genera by their branching on phylogenetic tree constructed with the L-INS-i algorithm and inferred using ModelTest-NG and the LG substitution model, and by having a coding-complete RdRP amino acid sequence that is less than 50% identical to that of members of other genera in the family.
Species demarcation criteria
Members of different species in the genus are <85% identical in their coding-complete RdRP amino acid sequence.
