A Mycovirus VIGS Vector Confers Hypovirulence to a Plant Pathogenic Fungus to Control Wheat FHB
Advanced Science, 2023 Mycovirus‐mediated hypovirulence has the potential to control fungal diseases. However, the availability of hypovirulence‐conferring mycoviruses for plant fungal disease control is limited as most fungal viruses are asymptomatic. In this study, the virus‐
