Class II viruses. The genome of these simple viruses is single stranded DNA and they have an icosahedral nucleocapsid. The autonomous parvoviruses have a negative strand DNA and include viruses of vertebrates and arthropods. The defective Adeno-associated viruses cannot replicate in the absence of helper adenoviruses and have both positive and negative stranded genomes, but packaged in separate virions.
