===Double-stranded RNA viruses=== {{Further|Double-stranded RNA viruses}} [[File:Structure of the reovirus virion.png|thumb|Structure of the reovirus virion]] The [[Double-stranded RNA viruses|double-stranded (ds)RNA viruses]] represent a diverse group of viruses that vary widely in host range (humans, animals, plants, [[fungi]],{{efn|The majority of fungal viruses are double-stranded RNA viruses. A small number of positive-strand RNA viruses have been described. One report has suggested the possibility of a negative stranded virus.<ref name=Kondo2012>{{cite journal | vauthors = Kondo H, Chiba S, Toyoda K, Suzuki N | title = Evidence for negative-strand RNA virus infection in fungi | journal = Virology | volume = 435 | issue = 2 | pages = 201β09 | date = January 2013 | pmid = 23099204 | doi = 10.1016/j.virol.2012.10.002 | doi-access = free }}</ref>}} and [[bacteria]]), [[genome]] segment number (one to twelve), and [[virion]] organization ([[Capsid#Triangulation number|Triangulation number]], [[capsid]] layers, spikes, turrets, etc.). Members of this group include the [[rotavirus]]es, which are the most common cause of [[gastroenteritis]] in young children, and [[picobirnavirus]]es, which are the most common virus in fecal samples of both humans and animals with or without signs of diarrhea. [[Bluetongue virus]] is an economically important pathogen that infects cattle and sheep. In recent years, progress has been made in determining atomic and subnanometer resolution structures of a number of key viral proteins and virion capsids of several dsRNA viruses, highlighting the significant parallels in the structure and replicative processes of many of these viruses.<ref name=Pattonrnav>{{cite book |editor = Patton JT | title = Segmented Double-stranded RNA Viruses: Structure and Molecular Biology | publisher = Caister Academic Press | year = 2008 | url=http://www.horizonpress.com/rnav | isbn = 978-1-904455-21-9}}</ref>{{page needed|date=March 2020}}
