Pisoniviricetes Explained

Pisoniviricetes is a class of positive-strand RNA viruses which infect eukaryotes.^{[1] [2]} A characteristic of the group is a conserved 3C-like protease from the PA clan of proteases for processing the translated polyprotein.^{[3] [4]} The name of the group is a portmanteau of member orders "picornavirales, sobelivirales, nidovirales" and -viricetes which is the suffix for a virus class.^[5]

Orders

The following orders are recognized:

• Nidovirales
• Picornavirales
• Sobelivirales
