Verticillium albo‐atrum partitivirus 1 Is a Highly Prevalent and Stably Maintained Cryptic Virus of Hop‐Associated Verticillium nonalfalfae

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.
Verticillium albo‐atrum partitivirus 1 (VaaPV1) infects Verticillium nonalfalfae isolates from hop. Comparative analyses of virus‐infected and isogenic virus‐free isolates revealed no effect on fungal growth or virulence, indicating a latent (cryptic) infection. ABSTRACT The soilborne plant‐pathogenic fungus Verticillium nonalfalfae causes Verticillium

Phenotypic and Molecular Investigations on Hypovirulent Cryphonectria parasitica in Italy [PDF]

Plant Disease, 2018
Chestnut blight is caused by the fungus Cryphonectria parasitica. As one of the most ecologically important diseases of Castanea spp., C. parasitica can rapidly kill trees. In Europe, mitigation of disease severity took place spontaneously through colonization of C. parasitica by mycoviruses, which reduced the virulence of the fungus. In the framework

Viral Transmission Between Heterobasidion parviporum Strains in Wood Billets and Decaying Stumps

Forest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The combined use of Heterobasidion partitiviruses HetPV13‐an1 and HetPV15‐pa1 is considered a promising biocontrol approach against Heterobasidion root and butt rot. Both viruses mediate debilitating effects in many Heterobasidion isolates and are transmitted efficiently in laboratory conditions.

Discovery of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum Hypovirulence-Associated Virus-1 in Urban River Sediments of Heathcote and Styx Rivers in Christchurch City, New Zealand [PDF]

, 2013
In samples of benthic and bank river sediments of two urban rivers in Christchurch city (New Zealand), we identified and recovered isolates of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum hypovirulence-associated virus-1 (SsHADV-1), a fungus-infecting circular single ...

Characterization and Incidence of the First Member of the Genus Mitovirus Identified in the Phytopathogenic Species Fusarium oxysporum

Viruses, 2020
A novel mycovirus named Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. dianthi mitovirus 1 (FodMV1) has been identified infecting a strain of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. dianthi from Colombia. The genome of FodMV1 is 2313 nt long, and comprises a 172-nt 5’-UTR, a 2025-nt

Demographic and genetic factors affect the use of translocation for evolutionary rescue: A case study of American chestnut using simulation

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 3, March 2026.
These findings underscore the importance, complexity and flexibility of strategic translocations for ensuring the recovery of plant species limited by adaptive genetic diversity. Abstract For many plant species at risk, recovery depends on supplementing populations with adaptive genetic diversity through translocations but specific introduction ...

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 ...

Mixed Impacts of the Mycovirus Fusarium Culmorum Phenuivirus 1 on Fusarium culmorum: Laboratory and In Planta Investigations

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Fusarium culmorum phenuivirus 1 caused no changes in laboratory‐based assays and shows mild hypovirulence in a susceptible wheat cultivar under semifield conditions. It is highly transmissible both via spores and hyphal contact. ABSTRACT The mycovirus Fusarium culmorum phenuivirus 1 (FcPV1) infects the wheat pathogen Fusarium culmorum, a causal agent ...
