First Evidence for Internal Ribosomal Entry Sites in Diverse Fungal Virus Genomes
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]
Proline dehydrogenase (Prodh) and Δ(1)-pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase (P5Cdh) are two key enzymes in the cellular biogenesis of glutamate.

Multiple viral infections in Agaricus bisporus - characterisation of 18 unique RNA viruses and 8 ORFans identified by deep sequencing [PDF]
Thirty unique non-host RNAs were sequenced in the cultivated fungus, Agaricus bisporus, comprising 18 viruses each encoding an RdRp domain with an additional 8 ORFans (non-host RNAs with no similarity to known sequences).

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.

Comparative Secretome Analysis Reveals Perturbation of Host Secretion Pathways by a Hypovirus [PDF]
AbstractTo understand the impact of a hypovirus infection on the secretome of the chestnut blight fungus, Cryphonectria parasitica, a phytopathogenic filamentous fungus, two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) and isobaric tag for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) technology were employed to identify and quantify the secreted proteins.

cpubi4 Is Essential for Development and Virulence in Chestnut Blight Fungus
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 ...

Transcriptional repression of specific host genes by the mycovirus Cryphonectria hypovirus 1 [PDF]
The hypovirus CHV1, which infects the plant-pathogenic fungus Cryphonectria parasitica, causes a distinct range of symptoms in its host that include reduced virulence expression, reduced sporulation, and reduced pigmentation. The virus, however, has little or no effect on fungal growth in culture.

Small RNA populations for two unrelated viruses exhibit different biases in strand polarity and proximity to terminal sequences in the insect host Homalodisca vitripennis [PDF]
Next generation sequence analyses were used to assess virus-derived small RNA (vsRNA) profiles for Homalodisca coagulata virus-1 (HoCV-1), family Dicistroviridae, and Homalodisca vitripennis reovirus (HoVRV), family Reoviridae, from virus-infected H ...
