The definition of Orbivirus species should be based on the ability of virus populations to reassort genetic information. Application of the definition of biological species to orbiviruses enables consideration to be given the evolutionary tendencies of virus populations and to mechanisms for generating diversity within orbiviruses.
环状病毒属病毒种的定义应基于病毒群体重配遗传信息的能力。将生物学种的定义应用于环状病毒,能够考虑病毒群体的进化趋势以及环状病毒内产生多样性的机制。
