Tudor-SN Promotes Early Replication of Dengue Virus in the Aedes aegypti Midgut
Summary: Diseases caused by mosquito-borne viruses have been on the rise for the last decades, and novel methods aiming to use laboratory-engineered mosquitoes that are incapable of carrying viruses have been developed to reduce pathogen transmission ...

Insights Into Insect Vector Transmission and Epidemiology of Plant-Infecting Fijiviruses
Viruses in genus Fijivirus (family Reoviridae) have caused serious damage to rice, maize and sugarcane in American, Asian, European and Oceanian countries, where seven plant-infecting and two insect-specific viruses have been reported.

Plants, plant viruses, and their vectors are co-evolving actors that co-exist and interact in nature. Insects are the most important vectors of plant viruses, serving as both carriers and hosts for the virus.

Apoptosis in a Whitefly Vector Activated by a Begomovirus Enhances Viral Transmission
Apoptosis is generally considered the first line of defense against viral infection. However, the role of apoptosis in the interactions between plant viruses and their insect vectors has rarely been investigated.

The Metagenomic Analysis of Viral Diversity in Colorado Potato Beetle Public NGS Data
The Colorado potato beetle (CPB) is one of the most serious insect pests due to its high ecological plasticity and ability to rapidly develop resistance to insecticides.

Regions identity between the genome of vertebrates and non-retroviral families of insect viruses
Background The scope of our understanding of the evolutionary history between viruses and animals is limited. The fact that the recent availability of many complete insect virus genomes and vertebrate genomes as well as the ability to screen these ...

Invisible invaders: Insect-transmitted viruses threaten agriculture
The vast movement of people and agricultural products between distant geographical regions has created unprecedented opportunities for introducing plant viruses and the insects that carry them (vectors) to new areas.
