Tibrovirus is a genus of viruses in the order Mononegavirales, in the family Rhabdoviridae. Cattle and water buffalo serve as natural hosts. There are currently only two species in this genus, including the type species Tibrogargan virus.[1][2]

Structure
Viruses in Tibrovirus are enveloped, with bullet shaped geometries. Genomes are linear, around 13.2kb in length. The genome codes for 8 proteins.[1]

Life Cycle
Viral replication is cytoplasmic. Entry into the host cell is achieved by attachment of the viral G glycoproteins to host receptors, which mediates clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Replication follows the negative stranded RNA virus replication model. Negative stranded RNA virus transcription, using polymerase stuttering is the method of transcription. The virus exits the host cell by budding, and tubule-guided viral movement. Cattle and water buffalo serve as the natural host.[1]
