Δ(1)-pyrroline-5-carboxylate/glutamate biogenesis is required for fungal virulence and sporulation. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Proline dehydrogenase (Prodh) and Δ(1)-pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase (P5Cdh) are two key enzymes in the cellular biogenesis of glutamate.

Physiological variations in hypovirus-infected wild and model long-term laboratory strains of Cryphonectria parasitica

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionForest ecosystems are highly threatened by the simultaneous effects of climate change and invasive pathogens. Chestnut blight, caused by the invasive phytopathogenic fungus Cryphonectria parasitica, has caused severe damage to European ...

Characterizing the roles of Cryphonectria parasitica RNA-dependent RNA polymerase-like genes in antiviral defense, viral recombination and transposon transcript accumulation. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
An inducible RNA-silencing pathway, involving a single Dicer protein, DCL2, and a single Argonaute protein, AGL2, was recently shown to serve as an effective antiviral defense response in the chestnut blight fungus Cryphonectria parasitica.

Transcriptome Analysis of Cryphonectria parasitica Infected With Cryphonectria hypovirus 1 (CHV1) Reveals Distinct Genes Related to Fungal Metabolites, Virulence, Antiviral RNA-Silencing, and Their Regulation

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Comprehensive transcriptome analysis was conducted to elucidate the molecular basis of the interaction between chestnut blight fungus, Cryphonectria parasitica, and single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) mycovirus Cryphonectria hypovirus 1 (CHV1), using RNA ...

Silencing of Kex2 Significantly Diminishes the Virulence of Cryphonectria parasitica

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2009
Cryphonectria parasitica is the causal agent of chestnut blight. Infection of this ascomycete with Cryphonectria hypovirus 1 (CHV1) results in reduction of virulence and sporulation of the fungus.

Characterisation and pathogenicity of Cryphonectria parasitica on sweet chestnut and sessile oak trees in Serbia

Plant Protection Science, 2019
The presence of Cryphonectria parasitica (Murrill) M.E. Barr was studied in six natural and planted stands of sweet chestnut in Serbia. The fungus was detected on the sweet chestnut in five localities and on the sessile oak in one locality.

Molecular characterization of Cryphonectria parasitica isolates from Basilicata region (Southern Italy) and mycovirus identification

Journal of Biological Research
Chestnut is a valuable species that grows widely throughout the Italian peninsula. It is susceptible to different diseases and among them chestnut blight caused by Cryphonectria parasitica is the most devastating one.

Transcriptional repression of specific host genes by the mycovirus Cryphonectria hypovirus 1 [PDF]

Journal of Virology, 1996
The hypovirus CHV1, which infects the plant-pathogenic fungus Cryphonectria parasitica, causes a distinct range of symptoms in its host that include reduced virulence expression, reduced sporulation, and reduced pigmentation. The virus, however, has little or no effect on fungal growth in culture.

First Evidence for Internal Ribosomal Entry Sites in Diverse Fungal Virus Genomes

mBio, 2018
In contrast to well-established internal ribosomal entry site (IRES)-mediated translational initiation in animals and plants, no IRESs were established in fungal viral or cellular RNAs.

Mycoreovirus genome alterations: similarities to and differences from rearrangements reported for other reoviruses

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2012
The family Reoviridae is one of the largest virus families with genomes composed of 9 to 12 double-stranded RNA segments. It includes members infecting organisms from protists to humans.
