Jos virus (JOSV), originally isolated in Jos, Nigeria in 1967, has remained unclassified despite cultivation in tissue culture, development of animal models of infection and implementation of seroprevalence surveys for infection. Here, we report genetic, ultrastructural and serological evidence that JOSV is an orthomyxovirus distinct from but phylogenetically related to viruses of the genus Thogotovirus.
乔斯病毒(JOSV)最初于 1967 年在尼日利亚乔斯分离得到,但尽管在组织培养中进行了培养、开发了感染动物模型并进行了血清流行率调查,该病毒仍未得到分类。在这里,我们报告了遗传、超微结构和血清学证据,表明 JOSV 是一种正粘病毒,与 Thogotovirus 属的病毒不同但具有系统发育关系。
