from
Wikipedia
A DNA virus is a virus that has DNA as its genetic material and replicates using a DNA-dependent DNA polymerase.
The nucleic acid is usually double-stranded DNA ( dsDNA ) but may also be single-stranded DNA ( ssDNA ).
DNA viruses belong to either Group I or Group II of the Baltimore classification system for viruses.
Although Group VII viruses such as hepatitis B contain a DNA genome, they are not considered DNA viruses according to the Baltimore classification, but rather reverse transcribing viruses because they replicate through an RNA intermediate.
