Cocadviroid (genus)
The genus includes several viroids similar to the coconut cadang-cadang viroid (CCCVd). It is related to the genus Pospiviroid and like in that genus the members have a central conserved region (CCR) and lack the ability to self-cleave through hammerhead structures when the circular RNA molecules are formed.
The genus is defined by the nuleotide sequence in the CCR and members share at least 90% of that sequence with CCCVd. The circular, single stranded RNA molecule contains 245-285 nucleotides.
The following species are currently entered under Cocadviroid (genus):
