本文报道了国际病毒分类委员会(ICTV)于2020年3月批准和批准的病毒分类和分类的变化。整个ICTV被邀请就ICTV执行委员会在2019年7月会议上批准的206项分类建议以及ICTV章程的拟议修订进行投票。所有提案和章程的修订都得到了ICTV有表决权的绝对多数成员的批准。值得一提的是，ICTV已经批准了一项提案，该提案扩大了先前确立的病毒领域，包括几乎所有的核糖核酸病毒和逆转录病毒，并批准了三项单独的提案，以建立具有DNA基因组的病毒的三个领域。
This article reports the changes to virus classification and taxonomy approved and ratified by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) in March 2020. The entire ICTV was invited to vote on 206 taxonomic proposals approved by the ICTV Executive Committee at its meeting in July 2019, as well as on the proposed revision of the ICTV Statutes. All proposals and the revision of the Statutes were approved by an absolute majority of the ICTV voting membership. Of note, ICTV has approved a proposal that extends the previously established realmRiboviriato encompass nearly all RNA viruses and reverse-transcribing viruses, and approved three separate proposals to establish three realms for viruses with DNA genomes.
