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

Silencing of Kex2 Significantly Diminishes the Virulence of Cryphonectria parasitica
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.

The in Vitro Control by Hipovirulence of Chestnut Blight Caused by Cryphonectria Parasitica [PDF]
In this study it has been attempted to characterize some isolates of Cryphonectria parasitica both virulent and hypovirulent and to test the efficiency of the hypovirulent isolate as a biocontrol agent.

Verticillium albo‐atrum partitivirus 1 (VaaPV1) infects Verticillium nonalfalfae isolates from hop. Comparative analyses of virus‐infected and isogenic virus‐free isolates revealed no effect on fungal growth or virulence, indicating a latent (cryptic) infection. ABSTRACT The soilborne plant‐pathogenic fungus Verticillium nonalfalfae causes Verticillium

Viral Transmission Between Heterobasidion parviporum Strains in Wood Billets and Decaying Stumps
ABSTRACT The combined use of Heterobasidion partitiviruses HetPV13‐an1 and HetPV15‐pa1 is considered a promising biocontrol approach against Heterobasidion root and butt rot. Both viruses mediate debilitating effects in many Heterobasidion isolates and are transmitted efficiently in laboratory conditions.
