Molecular genetic variability of Cryphonectria hypovirus 1 associated with Cryphonectria parasitica in South Tyrol (northern Italy) [PDF]
Cryphonectria hypovirus 1 (CHV-1) has been widely studied and used as a biocontrol agent because of its ability to infect the chestnut blight fungus, Cryphonectria parasitica, and to reduce its virulence.

Mycoviruses as Biocontrol Agents: Potential Applications for Managing Pests and Diseases of Oilseed Rape (Brassica napus). [PDF]
ABSTRACT Oilseed rape (Brassica napus) production faces a wide range of biotic threats. Pests typically pose a greater threat than diseases to oilseed rape, yet both vary considerably across the major cultivating regions. Management strategies often rely heavily on the use of chemical pesticides which may have harmful effects on the environment, thus ...

Thyreophagus corticalis as a vector of hypovirulence in Cryphonectria parasitica in chestnut stands
The natural spread of hypovirulence in Cryphonectria parasitica (Murr.) Barr. occurs in chestnut (Castanea sativa Mill) stands and orchards in Italy and other European countries, leading to spontaneous recovery of the diseased trees.

Testing the efficiency of natural hypovirulence for biological control of chestnut blight under field conditions. [PDF]
Global increases in connectivity have greatly accelerated the frequency of biological invasions across most of Earth’s ecosystems, including forests. Once invasive organisms become established in a naïve environment, they are difficult to eradicate or ...

Hypovirulence caused by mycovirus in Colletotrichum fructicola
Colletotrichum fructicola is a pathogenic fungus causing leaf black spot and fruit rot disease in a wide variety of crops. Some mycoviruses that cause detrimental effects on fungal hosts could be useful in studying the pathogenesis of fungal hosts. In this study, we reported two mycoviruses, Colletotrichum fructicola ourmia-like virus 1- Colletotrichum
