The Rudivirus(members of the family Rudiviridae) are unenveloped, stiff-rod-shaped viruses with linear dsDNA genomes, that infect hyperthermophilic archaea of the kingdom Crenarchaeota.[1][2] The study of crenarchaeal viruses is still incipient. Our knowledge of their Biology and basic molecular processes, including infection, virus-host interactions, DNA replication and packaging, as well as transcription regulation, is somewhat limited.

Are helical viruses rod shaped?
Yes, helical viruses have a rod-shaped structure. These viruses consist of a cylindrical or helical capsid that encloses the viral genetic material, which can be DNA or RNA. The helical capsid gives these viruses their rod-shaped appearance.

What are the effect of bacilli viruses?
Bacilli viruses are simply viruses that have a rod-like shape to them. Recently, one of the bacilli viruses has become very famous; Bacillus anthracis which is a bacterium that is commonly known anthrax. This deadly bacteria is dangerous because of its ability to produce endospores which is how bacteria protect themselves, giving them a longer life. Many bio-weapons use bacilli viruses and these can kill humans in various ways.
What is the general shape of viruses?
A virus can have one of two structures. These are: •Helical virus. A helical virus is rod- or thread-shaped. The virus that causes rabies is a helical virus. •Icosahedral virus. An icosahedral virus is spherically shaped. Viruses that cause poliomyelitis and herpes simplex are icosahedral viruses.
