Rhabdoviridae is a family of negative-strand RNA viruses in the order Mononegavirales.[1] Vertebrates (including mammals and humans), invertebrates, plants, fungi and protozoans serve as natural hosts.[2][3][4] Diseases associated with member viruses include rabies encephalitis caused by the rabies virus, and flu-like symptoms in humans caused by vesiculoviruses. The name is derived from Ancient Greek rhabdos, meaning rod, referring to the shape of the viral particles.[5] The family has 40 genera, most assigned to three subfamilies.[6]
