Hadaka Virus 1: a Capsidless Eleven-Segmented Positive-Sense Single-Stranded RNA Virus from a Phytopathogenic Fungus, Fusarium oxysporum [PDF]
The search for viruses infecting fungi, or mycoviruses, has extended our knowledge about the diversity of RNA viruses, as exemplified by the discovery of polymycoviruses, a phylogenetic group of multisegmented RNA viruses with unusual forms.

Host-pathogen interactions in a segregating population of BC2F2 hybrid Castanea dentata and other chesnut hybirds after exposure to hypovirus-containing and hypvirus-free strains of Cryphonectria parasitica [PDF]
An F2 population of second backcross interspecific hybrid chestnut trees (BC2F2) and the progeny of the Chattanooga Chestnut Tree Project (CCTP) breeding program were exposed to three isogenic strains of Cryphonectria parasitica. Strain Ep155 (virus-free)

Optimization of engineered super donor strains of Cryphonectria parasitica to reduce canker expansion in a forest setting [PDF]
Chestnut blight, caused by the non-native fungus Cryphonectria parasitica, has decimated American chestnut (Castanea dentata) populations throughout the eastern U.S. over the last century.

IDENTIFYING HIGHLY CONSERVED PATHOGENICITY GENES IN CHESTNUT BLIGHT AND POWDERY MILDEW FUNGI AS TARGETS FOR NOVEL FORMS OF HOST RESISTANCE [PDF]
A bioinformatic search of the genomes of chestnut blight fungus, Cryphonectria parasitica (Cp), and the Arabidopsis powdery mildew fungus, Golovinomyces cichoracearum (Gc), yielded six suspected pathogenicity genes with homologues in both species ...

FUNCTIONAL CHARACTERIZATION OF PAPAIN-LIKE PROTEASE p48 REQUIRED FOR REPLICATION OF HYPOVIRUS CHV-1 RESPONSIBLE FOR VIRULENCE-ATTENTUATION OF THE CHESTNUT BLIGHT FUNGUS [PDF]
The prototypic hypovirus CHV-1/EP713, responsible for virulence attenuation (hypovirulence) of the chestnut blight fungus Cryphonectria parasitica, encodes two leader papain-like proteases, p29 and p48, at the N-terminus of ORF A and ORF B, respectively.

Small stem assay for chestnut blight resistance in segregating half-sib and full-sib families of F2 and backcross hybrid chestnut trees [PDF]
Chestnut breeders routinely screen hybrid chestnut seedling progeny for resistance to chestnut blight in an orchard setting – a process that takes five to seven years.

A Comparison of the Growth and Asexual Reproduction by Cryphonectria parasitica Isolates Infected with Hypoviruses CHV3-County Line, CHV1-Euro7, and CHV1-Ep713 [PDF]
The impact of chestnut blight, caused by the fungal pathogen Cryphonectria parasitica, has diminished in Europe due to a natural biological control caused by hypovirus infection.
