Natural Cross-Kingdom Spread of Apple Scar Skin Viroid from Apple Trees to Fungi
Cells, 2022 Viroids are the smallest known infectious agents that are thought to only infect plants. Here, we reveal that several species of plant pathogenic fungi that were isolated from apple trees infected with apple scar skin viroid (ASSVd) carried ASSVd ...

Mycovirus-induced hypovirulence in notorious fungi Sclerotinia: a comprehensive review. [PDF]
Braz J Microbiol, 2023 Members of the genus Sclerotinia are notorious plant pathogens with a diverse host range that includes many important crops. A huge number of mycoviruses have been identified in this genus; some of these viruses are reported to have a hypovirulent effect on the fitness of their fungal hosts.

Characterization of chestnut bark fungal communities in healthy trees and blight recovered through natural or introduced hypovirulence [PDF]
, 2023 Various fungal species together with Cryphonectria parasitica (Murr.) Barr. have been isolated from chestnut tissues with blight symptoms. Microfungi remain in cankers during tissue healing, which occurs by transmitting hypovirulence by Cryphonectria ...
