CLASSIFICATION OF VIRUS :
LHT, HOLMES, BALTIMORE AND
ICTV CLASSIFICAION
Sivasangari shanmugam
VIRUS
 Small infectious agent.
 Replicate only inside the living cells.
 Meaning Venome (or) Poisonous fluid.
 Made up of nucleic acid and proteins.
 TMV is a first virus discovered by Ivanowski in
1892.
VIRUS CLASSIFICATION
 Virus mainly classified, based on heir following
character.
1. Phenotype character.
2. Mode of replication.
3. Host organisms.
4. Types of disease they cause.
VIRUS CLASSIFICATION
 Virus has four classification.
1. Holmes classification.
2. LHT classification.
3. Baltimore classification.
4. ICTV classification.
VIRUS CLASSIFICATION
Holmes classification
Holmes (1948) used Carl linaeus's system of binomial
nomenclature.
To classify viruses into 3 groups under one order, virales, They
are,
 Group I: Phaginae (attacks bacteria)
 Group II: Phytophaginae (attacks plants)
 Group III: Zoophaginae (attacks animals)
VIRUS CLASSIFICATION
LHT classification
It is based on chemical and physical characters like nucleic
acid (DNA or RNA), Symmetry (Helical or Icosahedral or
Complex), presence of envelope, diameter of capsid,
number of capsomers.
This classification was approved by the Provisional
Committee on Nomenclature of Virus (PNVC) of the
International Association of Microbiological Societies in
1962.
LHT CLASSIFICATION
 It is as follows: Phylum Vira (divided into 2 subphyla)
1. Subphylum Deoxyvira (DNA viruses)
1.1.Class Deoxybinala (dual symmetry)
Order Urovirales
Family Phagoviridae
1.2.Class Deoxyhelica (Helical symmetry)
Order Chitovirales
Family Poxviridae
LHT CLASSIFICATION
1.3.Class Deoxycubica (cubical symmetry)
 Order Peplovirales (mantle viruses)
Family Herpesviridae (162 capsomeres)
 Order Haplovirales (no envelope)
Family Iridoviridae (812 capsomeres)
Family Adenoviridae (252 capsomeres)
Family Papiloviridae (72 capsomeres)
Family Parvoviridae (32 capsomeres)
Family Microviridae (12 capsomeres)
LHT CLASSIFICATION
2. Subphylum Ribovira (RNA viruses)
2.1.Class Ribocubica (cubical symmetry)
 Order Togovirales
Family Arboviridae
 Order Lymovirales
Family Napoviridae
Family Reoviridae
2.2.Class Ribohelica (helical symmetry)
 Order Sagovirales
Family Stomataviridae
Family Paramyxoviridae
Family Myxoviridae
LHT CLASSIFICATION
 Order Rhabdovirales
 Suborder Flexiviridales (Plant viruses)
Family Mesoviridae
Family Peptoviridae
 Suborder Rigidovirales (Plant viruses)
Family Pachyviridae (20 nm)
Family Protoviridae (15 nm)
Family Dolichoviridae (12-13 nm)
VIRUS CLASSIFICATION
Baltimore classification
Classified by David Baltimore in 1971.
Classified seven groups based on,
 Nucleic acid (DNA/RNA).
 Strand (double/single).
 Sense (positive/negative).
 Methods of replication.
VIRUS CLASSIFICATION
Baltimore classification
Seven groups are given below :
1. Double stranded DNA
2. Single stranded positive (+) sense DNA
3. Double stranded RNA
4. Single stranded positive (+) sense RNA
5. Single stranded negative (-) sense RNA
6. Single stranded positive (+) sense RNA with DNA
intermediated
7. Double stranded DNA with RNA intermediate
BALTIMORE CLASSIFICATION
Double stranded DNA
 Include viruses are, Adenoviruses,Herpesviruses, Poxviruses, etc..
 Replicate in nucleus – Ex: Adenoviruses.
 Replicate in cytoplasm – Ex: Poxviruses.
SS (+) sense DNA
 Involving the formation of a (-)sense strand.
 Replication occurs in nucleus.
Ex: Parvovirus.
Double stranded RNA
 Have segmented genome.
 Each genome is transcribed separately produce monocistronic mRNA.
Ex: Reoviruse , Pirnavirus.
SS (+) sense RNA
 Polycistronic mRNA - Ex: Picrnovirus , Hepatitis A.
 Complex transcription – Ex : togaviruses
BALTIMORE CLASSIFICATION
SS (-) sense RNA
 Segmented - Ex : Orhomxoviruses.
 Non segmented – Ex : Rhabdoviruses.
SS (+) sense RNA with DNA
intermediate
 Does not serves as mRNA.
 template for reverse transcription .
 Ex : Retroviruses
DS RNA with DNA intermediate
 Ex : Hepadnaviruses.
BALTIMORE CLASSIFICATION
ICTV CLASSIFICAION
 ICTV – International committee on
taxonomy nomenclature virus.
 It includes,
Orders – 09
Families – 131
Sub families – 46
Genera – 803
Species – 4,853
ICTV CLASSIFICATION
The 9 orders are,
1. Herpsvirales – Large eukaryotic ds DNA viruses.
2. Caudovirales – Tailed ds DNA bacteriophage.
3. Ligamenvirales – Linear ds DNA archean virus.
4. Mononigavirales –Monosegmented (-) strand ssRNA plants &
animals viruses.
5. Nidovirales – (+) strand ssRNA viruses with vertebrates
hosts.
6. Ortervirales – ssRNA & DNA that replicate through a DNA
intermediate.
7. Picornovirales – Small (+) strand ssRNA viruses. Infect variety
of plants & animals.
8. Tymovirales – Monopartite (+) sense viruses that infects
plants.
9. Bunyavirales – Tripartite (+) sense ssRNA viruses.
