Group I. Double-stranded DNA viruses
Replicate using host or viral DNA polymerase.
- Non-enveloped bacteriophages: Myoviridae.
- Non-enveloped animal viruses: Adenoviridae, Papovaviridae, Phycodnaviridae, Iridoviridae.
- Enveloped animal viruses: Herpesviridae, Poxviridae, Baculoviridae.
Group II. Single-stranded DNA
Genome consists of (+) sense DNA. Requires a host DNA polymerase to generate the complementary strand. Non-enveloped.
- Non-enveloped bacteriophages: Inoviridae.
- Archaeal virus: Fusellovirus.
- Non-enveloped animal viruses: Parvoviridae, Circoviridae.
- Non-enveloped plant viruses: Geminiviridae.
Group III. Double-stranded RNA
Requires viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase; usually packages the polymerase before exiting host cell.
- Non-segmented, enveloped, bacteriophage: Cystoviridae.
- Segmented, non-enveloped, animal and plant hosts: Reoviridae, Birnaviridae, Varicosaviridae.
