The species ''Taï Forest ebolavirus'' is a virological taxon included in the genus ''Ebolavirus'', family ''Filoviridae'', order ''Mononegavirales''. The species has a single virus member, Taï Forest virus (TAFV). The members of the species are called Taï Forest ebolaviruses.〔 ==Nomenclature== The name ''Taï Forest ebolavirus'' () is derived from ''Parc National de Taï'' (the name of a national park in Côte d'Ivoire, where Taï Forest virus was first discovered) and the taxonomic suffix ''ebolavirus'' (which denotes an ebolavirus species).〔 According to the rules for taxon naming established by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV), the name ''Taï Forest ebolavirus'' is always to be capitalized, italicized, never abbreviated, and to be preceded by the word "species". The names of its members (Taï Forest ebolaviruses) are to be capitalized, are not italicized, and used without articles.〔 The species was introduced in 1998 as ''Cote d'Ivoire Ebola virus''. In 2002, the name was changed to ''Cote d'Ivoire ebolavirus'' (both times misspelling "Côte"). The name was proposed to be changed to ''Taï Forest ebolavirus'' in 2010,〔 and this proposal was immediately accepted by the ICTV. A virus of the genus ''Ebolavirus'' is a member of the species ''Taï Forest ebolavirus'' if:〔 * it is endemic in Côte d'Ivoire * it has a genome with three gene overlaps (''VP35''/''VP40'', ''GP''/''VP30'', ''VP24''/''L'') * it has a genomic sequence different from Ebola virus by ≥30% but different from that of Taï Forest virus by <30%. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Taï Forest ebolavirus」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
