Abstract

Only a few human and animal pathogenic viruses are known that have a single-stranded DNA genome. The members of the family Parvoviridae have a linear genome, whereas the genome of the members of the family Circoviridae and that of the recently created family Anelloviridae have a circular structure. The members of the family Geminiviridae are also characterized by a circular, single-stranded DNA genome, but they infect only plants. Circoviruses are pathogens in both plants and various animal species (monkeys, swine, poultry, etc.). A circular, single-stranded DNA virus, torque teno virus, was first isolated from humans in 1997. Several types of torque teno virus have been detected and classified into the family Anelloviridae; all persist, like the later discovered torque teno mini viruses and the torque teno midi viruses, in most people and various animals without causing any apparent disease.
