sigmavirus (plural sigmaviruses)

    • 2012, Ralf Georg Dietzgen, Rhabdoviruses: Molecular Taxonomy, Evolution, Genomics, Ecology, Host-vector Interactions, Cytopathology, and Control:
      Owing to the high level of divergence of the sigmaviruses, L genes appear to be more appropriate than N genes for their evolutionary comparisons (Longdon et al., 2010).
