病毒在生物学中占有独特的地位。尽管它们具有生命系统的一些特性，如拥有基因组，但它们实际上是非生命的感染性实体，不应被视为微生物。应明确区分病毒、病毒粒子和病毒种类这三个术语。物种是所有生物分类中使用的最基本的分类类别。1991年，国际病毒分类委员会(ICTV)决定将病毒种的类别与属和科的类别一起用于病毒分类。超过50个ICTV研究小组的任务是对2000年发表的第七次ICTV报告中确认的1,550种病毒进行划分。我们简要描述了该报告中介绍的病毒分类的变化。我们还讨论了最近提出的引入病毒种类的非拉丁化二项命名法的建议。
Viruses occupy a unique position in biology. Although they possess some of the properties of living systems such as having a genome, they are actually nonliving infectious entities and should not be considered microorganisms. A clear distinction should be drawn between the terms virus, virion, and virus species. Species is the most fundamental taxonomic category used in all biological classification. In 1991, the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) decided that the category of virus species should be used in virus classification together with the categories of genus and family. More than 50 ICTV study groups were given the task of demarcating the 1,550 viral species that were recognized in the 7th ICTV report, which was published in 2000. We briefly describe the changes in virus classification that were introduced in that report. We also discuss recent proposals to introduce a nonlatinized binomial nomenclature for virus species.
