Previously a genus of the family RETROVIRIDAE consisting of oncogenic exogenous retroviruses that contain type D particles. It included the MASON-PFIZER MONKEY VIRUS. Now it represents one of the two kinds of viruses in the genus BETARETROVIRUS. The core of the type D viruses is the intracytoplasmic type A particle and its mechanism of budding from the cell membrane is similar to the type B oncoviruses.
Previously a genus of the family RETROVIRIDAE consisting primarily of a few exogenous, vertically transmitted and endogenous viruses of mice. Now it represents one of the two kinds of viruses in the genus BETARETROVIRUS.
