Rhabdoviridae ThesaurusNoun | 1. | Rhabdoviridae - a family of arborviruses carried by arthropodsarborvirus, arbovirus - a large heterogeneous group of RNA viruses divisible into groups on the basis of the virions; they have been recovered from arthropods, bats, and rodents; most are borne by arthropods; they are linked by the epidemiologic concept of transmission between vertebrate hosts by arthropod vectors (mosquitoes, ticks, sandflies, midges, etc.) that feed on blood; they can cause mild fevers, hepatitis, hemorrhagic fever, and encephalitisvesiculovirus - an animal virus that causes vesicular stomatitisrhabdovirus - any of a group of arboviruses including those causing rabieslyssavirus - a neurotropic non-arbovirus of the family Rhabdoviridae that causes rabiesfamily - (biology) a taxonomic group containing one or more genera; "sharks belong to the fish family" |
Rhabdoviridae
Rhabdoviridae[‚rab·dō′vir·ə‚dī] (virology) A large family of negative-strand ribonucleic acid (RNA) viruses characterized by an enveloped bullet-shaped virion containing nonfragmented single-stranded RNA. They infect mammals, birds, fish, insects, and plants. The family includes the genera Vesiculovirus (vesicular stomatitis) and Lyssavirus (rabies). Rhabdoviridae
Rhab·do·vir·i·dae (rab'dō-vir'i-dē), A family of rod- or bullet-shaped viruses of vertebrates, insects, and plants, including rabiesvirus and vesicular stomatitis virus (of cattle). Virions (100-430 by 45-100 nm), formed by budding from surface membranes of cells, are enveloped and ether sensitive, with surface spikes 5-10 nm long; nucleocapsids contain negative-sense single-stranded RNA (MW ~4.4 × 106) and are of helical symmetry. Five genera have been found: Vesiculovirus, Lyssavirus, Ephemerovirus, Nucleorhabdovirus, and Cytorhabdovirus.Rhab·do·vir·i·dae (rab'dō-vir'i-dē) A family of rod-shaped or bullet-shaped viruses of vertebrates, insects, and plants, including rabies virus. Rhab·do·vir·i·dae (rab'dō-vir'i-dē) Rod-shaped or bullet-shaped viruses of vertebrates, insects, and plants, including rabies virus.
