Tombusvirus

Taxobox
virus_group = iv
familia = "Tombusviridae"
genus = "tombusvirus"

The genus tombusvirus are part of the family "Tombusviridae" and are members of group IV of the Baltimore classification of viruses. The genomes consist of positive sense single-stranded RNA with a genome size of 4800 nucleotides. The virions are non-enveloped with a diameter of 30 nm and have an isometric nucleocapsid (icosahedral; T=3). These virions have a regular surface structure and are composed of 17% nucleic acid.

This genera of viruses include the Tomato bushy stunt virus (hence the name).
