A novel hypovirulence-associated Hadaka virus 1 (HadV1-LA6) in Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense [PDF]

mSphere
Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc) poses a significant threat to banana crops as a lethal fungal pathogen. The global spread of Foc underscores the formidable challenges associated with traditional management methods in combating this pathogen. This

Characterization of a Botybirnavirus Conferring Hypovirulence in the Phytopathogenic Fungus Botryosphaeria dothidea [PDF]

Viruses, 2019
A double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) virus was isolated and characterized from strain EW220 of the phytopathogenic fungus Botryosphaeria dothidea. The full-length cDNAs of the dsRNAs were 6434 bp and 5986 bp in size, respectively. The largest dsRNA encodes a cap-pol fusion protein that contains a coat protein gene and an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp ...

Testing the efficiency of natural hypovirulence for biological control of chestnut blight under field conditions. [PDF]

IMA Fungus
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 ...

The Role of Phyllosphere Microbes and Viruses in Biocontrol of Pathogenic Fungi. [PDF]

Microb Biotechnol
Foliar microbiota employ multiple ecological strategies to inhibit fungal pathogens in the phyllosphere, including resource competition, production of antifungal metabolites, contact‐dependent killing, modulation of plant innate immunity and mycovirus‐mediated suppression.

Coinfection of Two Mycoviruses Confers Hypovirulence and Reduces the Production of Mycotoxin Alternariol in Alternaria alternata f. sp. mali

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Alternaria leaf blotch caused by Alternaria alternata apple pathotype (Alternaria mali) is an important fungal disease that affects the production of apples worldwide. Mycoviruses harbored in plant pathogenic fungi can confer hypovirulence in their hosts

Hypovirulence caused by mycovirus in Colletotrichum fructicola

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
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

Canker Development and Biocontrol Potential of CHV-1 Infected English Isolates of Cryphonectria parasitica Is Dependent on the Virus Concentration and the Compatibility of the Fungal Inoculums

Viruses, 2022
Biological control of Cryphonectria parasitica fungus, causal agent of chestnut blight, by virus infection (hypovirulence) has been shown to be an effective control strategy against chestnut blight in Europe and some parts of North America.
