Lacanobia oleracea nucleopolyhedrovirus (LaolNPV): A new European species of alphabaculovirus with a narrow host range. [PDF]
During an insect sampling program in alfalfa crops near Montpellier, France in 2011, Lacanobia oleracea larvae were collected that died due to nucleopolyhedrovirus infection (LaolNPV). This virus was subjected to molecular and biological characterization.

A Nymphalid-Infecting Group I Alphabaculovirus Isolated from the Major Passion Fruit Caterpillar Pest Dione juno juno (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) [PDF]
Baculoviruses are capable of infecting a wide diversity of insect pests. In the 1990s, the Dione juno nucleopolyhedrovirus (DijuNPV) was isolated from larvae of the major passionfruit defoliator pest Dione juno juno (Nymphalidae) and described at ...

Characterization and genomic analyses of a novel alphabaculovirus isolated from the black armyworm, Spodoptera cosmioides (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae). [PDF]
The black armyworm Spodoptera cosmioides is a pest of increasing importance in Cry1Ac-Bt toxin crops and non-Bt crops of soybean and cotton in Brazil. Here we characterized a baculovirus isolated from extracts of S. cosmioides that died with symptoms of nuclear polyhedrosis.

Developments in the classification and nomenclature of arthropod-infecting large DNA viruses that contain pif genes. [PDF]
Viruses of four families of arthropod-specific, large dsDNA viruses (the nuclear arthropod large DNA viruses, or NALDVs) possess homologs of genes encoding conserved components involved in the baculovirus primary infection mechanism. The presence of such
