Major Viral Groups
Animal Viruses
Viruses circulating among Australian wildlife, livestock, domestic animals, and other hosts.
Plant Viruses
Viruses affecting agricultural and native plant species, with importance for plant health and ecosystems.
Emerging Viruses
Viruses of particular interest because of changing host associations, geographic distribution, or emergence patterns.
Research Context
Australian virus research contributes to understanding viral diversity, host–virus interactions, evolution, surveillance, and emerging infectious diseases.
