V: Single-stranded (-)sense RNA (Orthomyxoviruses - influenza, Rhabdoviruses, etc)
Must have a virion particle RNA directed RNA polymerase.
a) Segmented e.g. Orthomyxoviruses. First step in replication is transcription of the (-) sense RNA genome by the virion RNA-dependent RNA polymerase to produce monocistronic mRNAs, which also serve as the template for genome replication.
b) Non-segmented e.g. Rhabdoviruses. Replication occurs as above and monocistronic mRNAs are produced.
