ICTV Virus Taxonomy Profile: Baculoviridae [PDF]

Journal of General Virology, 2018
The family Baculoviridae comprises large viruses with circular dsDNA genomes ranging from 80 to 180 kbp. The virions consist of enveloped, rod-shaped nucleocapsids and are embedded in distinctive occlusion bodies measuring 0.15–5 µm. The occlusion bodies consist of a matrix composed of a single viral protein expressed at high levels during infection ...

Behavioural manipulation of insect hosts by Baculoviridae as a process of niche construction [PDF]

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2013
Niche construction has received increasing attention in recent years as a vital force in evolution and examples of niche construction have been identified in a wide variety of taxa, but viruses are conspicuously absent. In this study we explore how niche construction can lead to viruses engineering their hosts (including behavioural manipulation) with ...

Baculoviruses: General Features (Baculoviridae)

, 2021
Baculoviruses are insect-specific viruses with double-stranded DNA genomes. This article covers the nomenclature, morphology and genome organization of these viruses. The evolutionary origin is reviewed, along with the infection cycle, transmission pathways and host behavioral manipulation.

The ac53 , ac78 , ac101 , and ac103 Genes Are Newly Discovered Core Genes in the Family Baculoviridae [PDF]

Journal of Virology, 2012
ABSTRACT The family Baculoviridae is a large group of insect viruses containing circular double-stranded DNA genomes of 80 to 180 kbp, which have broad biotechnological applications. A key feature to understand and manipulate them is the recognition of orthology.

Genome sequence of Perigonia lusca single nucleopolyhedrovirus: insights into the evolution of a nucleotide metabolism enzyme in the family Baculoviridae [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2016
AbstractThe genome of a novel group II alphabaculovirus, Perigonia lusca single nucleopolyhedrovirus (PeluSNPV), was sequenced and shown to contain 132,831 bp with 145 putative ORFs (open reading frames) of at least 50 amino acids. An interesting feature of this novel genome was the presence of a putative nucleotide metabolism enzyme-encoding gene ...

Protein composition of the occlusion bodies of Epinotia aporema granulovirus. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2019
Within family Baculoviridae, members of the Betabaculovirus genus are employed as biocontrol agents against lepidopteran pests, either alone or in combination with selected members of the Alphabaculovirus genus.

Chapter 21 Baculoviridae

, 1987
Publisher Summary Baculoviruses are complex viruses that cause diseases in invertebrates, notably insects. The virus particles are enveloped rod-shaped entities. The envelope surrounds a nucleocapsid containing a deoxyribonucleoprotein complex. In the case of nuclear polyhedrosis virus (NPV) or granulosis virus (GV) the virus, particles may be ...

Baculoviruses: Molecular Biology and Replication (Baculoviridae)

, 2021
An overview is presented of crucial biological processes in the baculovirus replication cycle, encompassing viral entry, gene expression, DNA replication, and virus particle assembly and release. Special attention is paid to the functions of the encoded viral proteins in the processes mentioned above.

Diets for in vivo inoculation of Spodoptera frugiperda multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (SfMNPV) (Lefavirales: Baculoviridae)

Acta Scientiarum: Biological Sciences
The Spodoptera frugiperda multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (SfMNPV) has been studied and applied in controlling the fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda. This pest serves as the primary host for in vivo replication of this biological control agent.

Characterisation of extracellular vesicles in baculovirus infection of Spodoptera frugiperda cells

Journal of Extracellular Biology
Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) is an enveloped DNA virus of the Baculoviridae family. This baculovirus is widely exploited for the biological control of insect pest species and as an expression platform to produce ...
