Genes are categorized based on their functions during virus replication. The 37 baculovirus core genes [6] are shown in bold.
1
The replication gene v-trex is absent in ChroNPV genome. Also missing in both ChocNPV and ChroNPV are genes involved in DNA repair system and nucleotide metabolism.
2
Highlighted in grey are auxiliary genes ctl-2 and elf-5 present in ChroNPV genome, but not in other Choristoneura NPVs.
