Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 1, January/February 2026.The Cryphonectria parasitica hypovirus CHV1 efficiently replicates in the heterologous host Fusarium oxysporum, inducing clear hypovirulence, and has the potential to persist and spread in this pathogen by constant infections and re‐infections through hyphal anastomosis.

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.

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 22, Issue 12, December 2025.ABSTRACT The fungi Fusarium guttiforme and Phytophthora palmivora were cultivated in four different media (Potato Dextrose Agar, Czapek, rice, and ISP2) and co‐cultured to stimulate fungal interactions and enhance secondary metabolite production. Promising extracts were fractionated, yielding compounds such as the iron complex of fusaric acid (1 ...

Speed Breeding Transgenic American Chestnut Trees Toward Restoration
Plant Direct, Volume 9, Issue 12, December 2025.ABSTRACT The American chestnut (Castanea dentata) was a dominant, foundational forest canopy tree in eastern North America until an imported chestnut blight (caused by Cryphonectria parasitica) rendered it functionally extinct across its native range. Biotechnological approaches have the potential to help restore the species, but field‐based breeding ...

Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 2542-2583, December 2025.ABSTRACT Biological invasions are one of the major drivers of biodiversity decline and have been shown to have far‐reaching consequences for society and the economy. Preventing the introduction and spread of alien species represents the most effective solution to reducing their impacts on nature and human well‐being.

Transmission of Fusarium boothii mycovirus via protoplast fusion causes hypovirulence in other phytopathogenic fungi. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 There is increasing concern regarding the use of fungicides to control plant diseases, whereby interest has increased in the biological control of phytopathogenic fungi by the application of hypovirulent mycoviruses as a possible alternative to ...
