Rhizidiovirus !
Rhizidiovirus is a genus of viruses that primarily infects stramenopiles, specifically those from the Hyphochytridiomycota group. There is currently only one known species within this genus: Rhizidiomyces virus.
These viruses are significant in their interaction with their host group, Rhizidiomyces, a genus of fungi-like organisms in the stramenopiles, which play roles in various ecological processes. The exact details about the structure, life cycle, and other biological features of Rhizidiomyces virus are not as well-studied as those of other more widely researched viruses, but they represent an interesting area for study in the realm of viral infections in aquatic or soil ecosystems.
Rhizidiomyces virus is likely to be involved in the regulation of its host populations and potentially impacts nutrient cycling and microbial dynamics in its habitat.
