This table contains all of baculoviruses used in bioinformatic studies, sorted by genus (and within them by alphabetical order). MNPV is the abbreviation of multicapsid nucleopolyhedrovirus; NPV is the abbreviation of nucleopolyhedrovirus; SNPV is the abbreviation of single nucleopolyhedrovirus; GV is the abbreviation of granulovirus. The accession numbers are from National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI, http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/) and correspond to the sequences of complete genomes. Code is an acronym used for practicality. U: unpublished.
