Morphological Virus Classification

Morphological Virus Classification is a systematic framework in virology that categorizes viruses based on their structural characteristics, such as capsid symmetry, envelope presence, and virion shape, distinguishing it from other classification approaches by prioritizing observable physical traits over genetic or biochemical properties.
