Residual Effects Caused by a Past Mycovirus Infection in Fusarium circinatum [PDF]
Mycoviruses are known to be difficult to cure in fungi but their spontaneous loss occurs commonly. The unexpected disappearance of mycoviruses can be explained by diverse reasons, from methodological procedures to biological events such as posttranscriptional silencing machinery. The long-term effects of a virus infection on the host organism have been

Fusarium circinatum and pitch canker of Pinus in Colombia [PDF]
Pitch canker, caused by the ascomycete fungus Fusarium circinatum, infects a wide range of Pinus species. The pathogen has a global distribution and limits plantation productivity wherever susceptible Pinus species are commercially cultivated. During 2005–2007, symptoms typical of those associated with F. circinatum were observed in Colombia on nursery
