A kingdom-specific infection refers to the manner in which viruses can only infect specific types of host cells. For example, a virus that infects a plant cannot infect a dog or a human, because plants are members of a different kingdom. Likewise, a virus that infects a bacteria (bacteriophages) cannot infect a plant or a bird.
