1. Who discovered virus? - Dmitri Iwanowski(1982)- The very first virus discovered is credited to the St. Petersburg Academy of Science on the 12th February 1892.
This is generally accepted as the beginning of Virology.

Six years later, 1898, Martinus Beijernick (1851-1931) confirmed Iwanowski's results on tobacco mosaic virus.
