title = "History and classification of Aigai virus (formerly Crimean- Congo haemorrhagic fever virus genotype VI)",
abstract = "Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) is the medically most important member of the rapidly expanding bunyaviral family Nairoviridae. Traditionally, CCHFV isolates have been assigned to six distinct genotypes. Here, the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) Nairoviridae Study Group outlines the reasons for the recent decision to re-classify genogroup VI (aka Europe-2 or AP-92- like) as a distinct virus, Aigai virus (AIGV).",
