Cydia pomonella granulovirus

Baculoviruses are generally named after the insect from which they were first isolated. For example, Cydia pomonella granulovirus (CpGV) was isolated initially from codling moth larvae and Anagrapha falcifera nuclear polyhedrovirus (AfNPV) was isolated from the alfalfa looper. This nomenclature is now widely accepted but it often conceals the number of insects that can be infected and the preferred insect host of the virus.
