The replication of Berne virus was reduced more than 1000-fold by actinomycin D, when the drug (0.1 to 1.0 µg/ml) was added during the first 8 h after infection; alpha-amanitin (25 µg/ml) produced a similar though less pronounced effect. U.v. preirradiation of the cells for ⩾ 5s led to a dramatic decrease in the production of extracellular virus. The results presented support our suggestion that Berne virus is a representative of a new family of animal viruses., UL https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/jgv/10.1099/0022-1317-65-3-645
