Scope note: Género de retrovirus no oncogénicos que producen infecciones crónicas en muchas especies animales, pero que no se consideran patógenos. Sus especies han sido aisladas de primates (incluido el hombre), ganado bovino, gatos, hámsteres y leones marinos. Los espumavirus tienen un aspecto espumoso o de encaje y suelen ir acompañados de la formación de sincitio. La especie tipo es el VIRUS ESPUMOSO DE LOS SIMIOS.

Scope note: Genus of non-oncogenic retroviruses which establish persistent infections in many animal species but are considered non-pathogenic. Its species have been isolated from primates (including humans), cattle, cats, hamsters, horses, and sea lions. Spumaviruses have a foamy or lace-like appearance and are often accompanied by syncytium formation. SIMIAN FOAMY VIRUS is the type species.
Annotation: infection: coordinate IM with RETROVIRIDAE INFECTIONS (IM); note HUMAN SPUMAVIRUS and CHIMPANZEE FOAMY VIRUS are entry terms to SIMIAN FOAMY VIRUS
