Alphabaculovirus
''Alphabaculovirus'' is a genus of viruses in the family ''Baculoviridae''. The natural host (biology), hosts of species in this family are invertebrates, among them Pterygota, winged insects (Lepidopterans, Hymenopterans, Dipterans), and Decapoda, decapods. However, species in this genus have been isolated only from the insect order Lepidoptera. There are 68 species in the genus. Structure Viruses in ''Alphabaculovirus'' are enveloped, with circular genomes around 80–180 kbp in length. The genome codes for 100 to 180 proteins. Life cycle ''Alphabaculovirus'' replication is nuclear. Entry into the host cell is achieved by attachment of the viral glycoproteins to host receptors, which mediates endocytosis. Replication follows the DNA virus, double-stranded DNA bidirectional replication model. DNA-templated transcription (biology), transcription with some alternative RNA splicing, splicing mechanism is the method of transcription. Translation (biology), Translation takes plac ...

Baculoviridae
''Baculoviridae'' is a family of viruses. Arthropods, among the most studied being Lepidoptera, Hymenoptera and Diptera, serve as natural hosts. Currently, 85 Virus classification, species are placed in this family, assigned to four genera. Baculoviruses are known to infect insects, with over 600 host species having been described. Immature (larval) forms of lepidopteran species (moths and butterflies) are the most common hosts, but these viruses have also been found infecting sawfly, sawflies, and mosquitoes. Although baculoviruses are capable of entering mammalian cells in culture, they are not known to be capable of replication in mammalian or other vertebrate animal cells. Starting in the 1940s, they were used and studied widely as biopesticides in crop fields. Baculoviruses contain a cccDNA, circular, double-stranded DNA, double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) genome ranging from 80 to 180 Base pair#Length measurements, kbp.

Virus
A virus is a submicroscopic infectious agent that replicates only inside the living Cell (biology), cells of an organism. Viruses infect all life forms, from animals and plants to microorganisms, including bacteria and archaea. Viruses are found in almost every ecosystem on Earth and are the most numerous type of biological entity. Since Dmitri Ivanovsky's 1892 article describing a non-bacterial pathogen infecting tobacco plants and the discovery of the tobacco mosaic virus by Martinus Beijerinck in 1898, more than 16,000 of the millions of List of virus species, virus species have been described in detail. The study of viruses is known as virology, a subspeciality of microbiology. When infected, a host cell is often forced to rapidly produce thousands of copies of the original virus. When not inside an infected cell or in the process of infecting a cell, viruses exist in the form of independent viral particles, or ''virions'', consisting of (i) genetic material, i.e., long ...
