Taxobox virus group iii familia Reoviridae genus Phytoreoviridae Wound tumorvirus is an invertebrate and plant virus found in the United States of America belonging to the genus Phytoreoviridae and the family Reoviridae . The virus is a Type III virus under the Baltimore classification Baltimore classification system that is it has a double stranded RNA genome. This genome is approximately 25,000 base pairs long and organised into twelve segments. All the viral replication occurs in the cytoplasm. The virus is 22 RNA by weight, the other 78 being structural proteins. Structurally, the virus is constructed from 7 different structural proteins. The capsid has icosahedral symmetry, is non enveloped and around 70 nm in diameter. There is an inner shell with a diameter of around 50 nm. More than 50 species of plants are potential hosts for Wound tumorvirus. It was first reported in Melilotus officinalis . The virus causes tumors to form on the plant at the stem and roots with the root tumors being more severe. The virus is spread by an insect vector the Leaf hopper family, notably Agallia constricta . Since viral replication occurs relatively independently of cellular processes, the virus also replicates in the insect vector.

Taxobox virus group iv ordo Nidovirales familia Coronaviridae genus Coronavirus Mouse hepatitis virus is a virus of the family Coronaviridae , genus coronavirus . Mouse hepatitis virus MHV is a coronavirus that causes an epidemic murine illness with high mortality, especially among colonies of laboratory mice. Prior to the discovery of SARS CoV, MHV had been the best studied coronavirus both in vivo and in vitro as well as at the molecular level. Some strains of MHV cause a progressive demyelinating encephalitis in mice which has been used as a murine model for multiple sclerosis . Significant research efforts have been focused on elucidating the viral pathogenesis of these animal coronaviruses, especially by virologist s interested in veterinary and zoonotic diseases.

unreferenced date October 2011 Tumor progression is the third and last phase in tumor development. This phase is characterised by increased growth speed and invasiveness of the tumor cells. As a result of the progression, phenotypical changes occur. Together with the progression, more and more aneuploidy occurs. This leads to expression in cell and nuclear polymorphism.
