La polyédrose est ainsi nommée parce que le virus est contenu dans un «corps d'inclusion» polyédrique de nature protéinique, décelable au microscope optique. On distingue deux sortes de «maladies à polyèdres», dues à des virus très différents selon que la réplication a lieu dans le noyau (polyédrose nucléaire) ou dans le cytoplasme de la cellule hôte (polyédrose cytoplasmique). 3, record 1, French, - poly%C3%A9drie%20nucl%C3%A9aire
