Biodiversity, Evolution and Ecological Specialization of Baculoviruses: A Treasure Trove for Future Applied Research

open access: yesViruses, 2018
The Baculoviridae, a family of insect-specific large DNA viruses, is widely used in both biotechnology and biological control. Its applied value stems from millions of years of evolution influenced by interactions with their hosts and the environment. To

Abundance of Phasi-Charoen-like virus in Aedes aegypti mosquito populations in different states of India.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Mosquitoes are known to harbor a large number of insect specific viruses (ISV) in addition to viruses of public health importance. These ISVs are highly species specific and are non-pathogenic to humans or domestic animals.

Bombyx mori UFL1 facilitates BmNPV proliferation by regulating host cell apoptosis through PERK

open access: yesArchives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, Volume 116, Issue 3, July 2024.
1. BmUFL1 promotes Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) proliferation. 2. BmUFL1‐modulated PERK activity and cell apoptosis are involved in regulating BmNPV proliferation. Abstract Ubiquitin‐fold modifier 1 (UFM1) is attached to protein substrates through the sequential activity of an E1 (UBA5)‐E2 (UFC1)‐E3 (UFL1) cascade. UFL1 is the E3 ligase for

Morphological and molecular evidence that Culex nigripalpus baculovirus is an unusual member of the family Baculoviridae

open access: yesJournal of General Virology, 2001
We present evidence that a newly discovered mosquito virus fromCulex nigripalpusis an unusual member of the familyBaculoviridae. Development of this virus was restricted to nuclei of midgut epithelial cells in the gastric caeca and posterior stomach.

Identification of the Lymantria dispar Nucleopolyhedrovirus Envelope Fusion Protein Provides Evidence for a Phylogenetic Division of the Baculoviridae [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2000
ABSTRACT The complete genome sequences of a number of diverse members of the Baculoviridae including both nucleopolyhedroviruses (NPVs) and granuloviruses (GVs) revealed that they lack a homolog of GP64, the envelope fusion protein of the budded form of Autographa californica ...

Baculovirus: Molecular Insights on Their Diversity and Conservation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The Baculoviridae is a large group of insect viruses containing circular double-stranded DNA genomes of 80 to 180 kbp. In this study, genome sequences from 57 baculoviruses were analyzed to reevaluate the number and identity of core genes and to ...

The Complete Sequence of the First Spodoptera frugiperda Betabaculovirus Genome: A Natural Multiple Recombinant Virus

open access: yesViruses, 2015
Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is a major pest in maize crops in Colombia, and affects several regions in America. A granulovirus isolated from S. frugiperda (SfGV VG008) has potential as an enhancer of insecticidal activity of previously

Update of the list of qualified presumption of safety (QPS) recommended microbiological agents intentionally added to food or feed as notified to EFSA 20: Suitability of taxonomic units notified to EFSA until March 2024

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 22, Issue 7, July 2024.
Abstract The qualified presumption of safety (QPS) process was developed to provide a safety assessment approach for microorganisms intended for use in food or feed chains. In the period covered by this statement, no new information was found that would change the status of previously recommended QPS TUs. The TUs in the QPS list were updated based on a

The Operophtera brumata Nucleopolyhedrovirus (OpbuNPV) Represents an Early, Divergent Lineage within Genus Alphabaculovirus

open access: yesViruses, 2017
Operophtera brumata nucleopolyhedrovirus (OpbuNPV) infects the larvae of the winter moth, Operophtera brumata. As part of an effort to explore the pesticidal potential of OpbuNPV, an isolate of this virus from Massachusetts (USA)—OpbuNPV-MA—was ...
