Structure
Viruses in Betalipothrixvirus are enveloped, with rod-shaped geometries. The diameter is around 24 nm, with a length of 2000 nm. Genomes are linear, around 40.5kb in length. The genome has 67 open reading frames.[1]
| Genus | Structure | Symmetry | Capsid | Genomic Arrangement | Genomic Segmentation |

| Betalipothrixvirus | Rod-shaped | Enveloped | Linear | Monopartite |
Life Cycle
Viral replication is cytoplasmic. Entry into the host cell is achieved by adsorption into the host cell. Dna templated transcription is the method of transcription. Archaea serve as the natural host. Transmission routes are passive diffusion.[1]
