Interaction of Viruses with the Insect Intestine.

Annual Review of Virology, 2021
In nature, insects face a constant threat of infection by numerous exogeneous viruses, and their intestinal tracts are the predominant ports of entry. Insects can acquire these viruses orally during either blood feeding by hematophagous insects or sap ...

Viruses of Insects

International Journal of Tropical Insect Science, 1987
Viruses have been identified in a large number of insect species and many have been shown to have a regulating effect on natural populations of insects. Increasing dissatisfaction with the use of chemical pesticides has resulted in a search for biological control agents such as viruses.

Insect Viruses: Serological Relationships

1976
Publisher Summary This chapter reviews the serological characterization of insect pathogenic viruses from the following five pathogenic and morphologic groups: (1) nucleopolyhedrosis viruses (NPV), (2) granulosis viruses, (3) cytoplasmic polyhedrosis viruses (CPV), (4) poxlike viruses now called “Entomopoxviruses,” and (5) the nonoccluded group that ...

Insect Iridescent Viruses

1985
Insects act as hosts to a variety of viruses, some of which are also able to infect plants, some of which are also able to infect animals other than insects, and some which apparently multiply exclusively in insects. The latter group comprises the granulosis and nuclear polyhedrosis viruses (Bellett 1969), the cytoplasmic polyhedrosis viruses (Xeros ...

Viruses and insects

Palaeoentomology, 2020
Living under severe confinement and global state of war imposed by the emergence and worldwide very rapid spreading of the viral epidemic of zoonotic origin—coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, the world is yet again experiencing a weird period. The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is the defining global health crisis of our time and the greatest ...

Localizing Viruses in Their Insect Vectors

Annual Review of Phytopathology, 2014
The mechanisms and impacts of the transmission of plant viruses by insect vectors have been studied for more than a century. The virus route within the insect vector is amply documented in many cases, but the identity, the biochemical properties, and the structure of the actual molecules (or molecule domains) ensuring compatibility between them remain

Viruses and Parasitism in Insects

1979
Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on viruses and parasitism in insects. In recent years, virus-like particles have been observed in the reproductive tracts of a large number of endoparasitic hymenoptera (i.e., wasps whose larvae develop inside host larvae), belonging to the families of braconidae and ichneumonidae.

Insect-transmitted vertebrate viruses: Alphatogaviruses

In Vitro Cellular & Developmental Biology - Animal, 1993
Alphatogaviruses, of which Sindbis virus (SV) is the prototype, replicate to high titer in the laboratory both in mosquito cells and in vertebrate cells. By studying the replication of SV in mosquito cells as well as in vertebrate cells, we were able to obtain several viral mutants which have novel phenotypes and have contributed to our basic knowledge

Viruses of Insects

1958
The beginning of research on insect viruses is marked by the discovery and description of polyhedral bodies in the silkworm by Maestri (1856) and Cornalia (1856) just 100 years ago. Since then reports of several hundred investigations that deal with insect viruses have been published.

Plant Pathogenic Viruses in Insects

1968
Until recently plant virus diseases have been studied mainly by plant pathologists, and the causative agents have been considered solely as disease agents of plants. Although the host range of most plant-pathogenic viruses is limited to plants, a small number of viruses are now known to infect not only plants but also insects that act as vectors and ...
