Identification of an RNA Silencing Suppressor Encoded by a Symptomless Fungal Hypovirus, Cryphonectria Hypovirus 4 [PDF]
Biology, 2021 Previously, we have reported the ability of a symptomless hypovirus Cryphonectria hypovirus 4 (CHV4) of the chestnut blight fungus to facilitate stable infection by a co-infecting mycoreovirus 2 (MyRV2)—likely through the inhibitory effect of CHV4 on RNA

A Viral RNA Silencing Suppressor Modulates Reactive Oxygen Species Levels to Induce the Autophagic Degradation of Dicer‐Like and Argonaute‐Like Proteins [PDF]
Advanced ScienceMounting evidence indicates that viruses exploit elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels to promote replication and pathogenesis, yet the mechanistic underpinnings of this viral strategy remain elusive for many viral systems.

A Novel Hypovirus Species From Xylariaceae Fungi Infecting Avocado [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 The white rot root disease caused by Rosellinia necatrix is a major concern for avocado cultivation in Spain. Healthy escapes of avocado trees surrounded by diseased trees prompted us to hypothesize the presence of hypovirulent R.

Identification of a Novel Hypovirulence-Inducing Hypovirus From Alternaria alternata [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019 Mycoviruses are wide spread throughout almost all groups of fungi but only a small number of mycoviruses can attenuate the growth and virulence of their fungal hosts.

Molecular and Biological Characterization of the First Hypovirus Identified in Fusarium oxysporum [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 A novel mycovirus named Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. dianthi hypovirus 2 (FodHV2) has been identified infecting isolates Fod 408 and Fod 409 of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. dianthi from Morocco. The genome of FodHV2 is 9,444 nucleotides long excluding the poly(

Genetic and Phenotypic Characterization of Cryphonectria hypovirus 1 from Eurasian Georgia [PDF]
Viruses, 2018 Cryphonectria hypovirus 1 (CHV-1) infects the chestnut blight fungus Cryphonectria parasitica and acts as a biological control agent against this harmful tree disease. In this study, we screened the recently characterized C.

Comparative acetylomic analysis reveals differentially acetylated proteins regulating fungal metabolism in hypovirus-infected chestnut blight fungus. [PDF]
Mol Plant Pathol, 2023 Comparison of Cryphonectria parasitica with or without hypovirus found differentially acetylated proteins were enriched in metabolic processes; the acetylation of citrate synthase lysine‐55 plays a vital role in its activity. Abstract Cryphonectria parasitica, the chestnut blight fungus, and hypoviruses are excellent models for examining fungal ...
