The coat protein region, particularly scrutinized in the genus of Ilarvirus phylogroups, actively shapes the regional and host-specific dispersion. Within this chapter, assorted insights pertaining to the roles undertaken by coat proteins of frequently encountered Ilarviruses in their evolutionary processes are consolidated. Nonetheless, it is discerned that the availability of genomic data for RNA1 and RNA2 remains markedly limited, impeding the provision of lucid elucidations in this domain. Hence, to comprehensively delineate the evolution of Ilarviruses, a requisite exists for supplementary nucleotide sequence data, with a particular emphasis on taxa that have received lesser attention in research endeavors. © 2024eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessCoat proteinEvolutionIlarvirusesBook Chapter10.1016/bs.ctm.2024.05.002937584391815782-s2.0-85195104205N/A
