Mycoviruses in Entomopathogenic Fungi [PDF]

Viruses
Mycoviruses are widely distributed among different groups of filamentous fungi. An awareness of infections caused by mycoviruses was highlighted in the 1980s and 1990s, when the impact of these agents on phenotypes of agriculturally and medically important fungi was reported.

Can plants use entomopathogens as bodyguards? [PDF]

, 2000
For 20 years, ecologists have been gathering evidence in support of the hypothesis that plants can use insect natural enemies such as predators and parasitoids as bodyguards to protect themselves from herbivory, but entomopathogens have escaped this ...
