What is the longest name for virus?
The longest name for a virus is often considered to be the "Tobacco mosaic virus," which is a type of virus that infects plants, particularly tobacco. However, a more technical example is the "Pseudomonas syringae pv. tabaci," which is a strain of the bacterium Pseudomonas syringae that acts similarly to a virus in some contexts. In general, the naming conventions for viruses can vary, but they tend to be descriptive and based on the host organism or symptoms caused.
What is the scientific name of the banna virus?
The scientific name of the banana virus is Banana bunchy top virus (BBTV). It is a plant virus that infects banana plants and can cause significant damage to banana crops.
How was tobacco mosaic virus discovered?
The plant disease caused by tobacco mosaic virus is found worldwide. The virus is known to infect more than 150 types of herbaceous, dicotyledonous plants including many vegetables, flowers, and weeds. Infection by tobacco mosaic virus causes serious losses on several crops including tomatoes, peppers, and many ornamentals. Tobacco mosaic virus is one of the most common causes of virus diseases of plants in Minnesota.
How martinus beijerinck discover the first virus?
Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) is an RNA virus that infects plants, especially tobacco and other members of the family Solanaceae. The infection causes characteristic patterns (mottling and discoloration) on the leaves (hence the name). TMV was the first virus to be discovered. Although it was known from the late 19th century that an infectious disease was damaging tobacco crops, it was not until 1930 that the infectious agent was determined to be a virus. Please improve this answer if you know exactly how he discovered this virus.

A virus that infects a bacterial cell is called?
Bacteriophage is the name given to a virus that infects bacteria. The name is frequently abbreviated to 'phage'. T4 phage is subject to a wide variety of experiments because it infects E. coli, and E. coli is one of the safer, more abundant and best understood bacteria to study.

How can viruses be named?
Viruses can be named based on the first host cell that is found infected by the virus and the type of damage caused. Viruses can also be named based upon where they are first discovered geographically (e.g. Semliki Forest Virus, West Nile Virus), for the disease with which they are associated (e.g. Bovine Diarrhea Virus), or they may be given a name that has meaning in the language of the first people afflicted with the virus (e.g. Onyonyong Virus). The naming conventions for viruses are actually quite complicated, and have only recently begun to be simplified by a taxonomy that is based upon the type of nucleic acid, structure of the virion, and replication scheme.Because viruses are not considered organisms, scientists do not use traditional binomial nomenclature to name them. Currently, scientists name viruses in a variety of ways. Some viruses, such as the polio virus, are named after they disease they cause. Other viruses are named for the organisms they infect. The tobacco mosaic virus, for example, infects plants in the tobacco family. Scientists named the west nile virus after the place in Africa where it was first found. Sometimes, scientists name viruses after people. The Epstein-Barr virus, for example was named for the two scientists who first identified the virus that causes the disease known as mononucleosis, or mono.So here's the ways.1.
