Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014 Here we report a biological and molecular characterization of a novel positive-sense RNA virus isolated from a field isolate (NW10) of a filamentous phytopathogenic fungus, the white root rot fungus that is designated as Rosellinia necatrix fusarivirus 1

Hypovirus Virulence and Vegetative Incompatibility in Populations of the Chestnut Blight Fungus [PDF]
Phytopathology®, 2012 Cryphonectria hypovirus 1 hyperparasitizes the chestnut blight fungus Cryphonectria parasitica and acts as a biocontrol agent for this serious tree disease. The virus is transmitted cytoplasmatically between fungal individuals. However, highly virulent viruses strongly debilitate their host and, thus, reduce their own transmission probability ...

Hypovirulence of Sclerotium rolfsii Caused by Associated RNA Mycovirus
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 Mycoviruses associated with hypovirulence are potential biological control agents and could be useful to study the pathogenesis of fungal host pathogens. Sclerotium rolfsii, a pathogenic fungus, causes southern blight in a wide variety of crops.

First Evidence for Internal Ribosomal Entry Sites in Diverse Fungal Virus Genomes
mBio, 2018 In contrast to well-established internal ribosomal entry site (IRES)-mediated translational initiation in animals and plants, no IRESs were established in fungal viral or cellular RNAs.

Δ(1)-pyrroline-5-carboxylate/glutamate biogenesis is required for fungal virulence and sporulation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Proline dehydrogenase (Prodh) and Δ(1)-pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase (P5Cdh) are two key enzymes in the cellular biogenesis of glutamate.

cpubi4 Is Essential for Development and Virulence in Chestnut Blight Fungus
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 Ubiquitination plays key roles in eukaryotic growth, stress adaptation, and metabolic regulation. In our previous work, ubiquitin was found to be secreted in the hypovirus-infected strain of Cryphonectria parasitica, a phytopathogenic filamentous fungus ...
