Exploring the Mycovirus Universe: Identification, Diversity, and Biotechnological Applications
Viruses that infect fungi are known as mycoviruses and are characterized by the lack of an extracellular phase. In recent years, the advances on nucleic acids sequencing technologies have led to a considerable increase in the number of fungi-infecting ...

A double-stranded RNA mycovirus in Botrytis cinerea [PDF]
In wild-type Botrytis cinerea CVg25 strain we have detected the presence of extrachromosomal genetic elements corresponding to double-stranded RNA molecules. These genetic elements have been designated L, M1 and M2 with molecular sizes of 8.3, 2.0 and 1.4 kb, respectively.

Hypovirulence caused by mycovirus in Colletotrichum fructicola
Colletotrichum fructicola is a pathogenic fungus causing leaf black spot and fruit rot disease in a wide variety of crops. Some mycoviruses that cause detrimental effects on fungal hosts could be useful in studying the pathogenesis of fungal hosts. In this study, we reported two mycoviruses, Colletotrichum fructicola ourmia-like virus 1- Colletotrichum

Morphological, Pathogenic and Toxigenic Variability in the Rice Sheath Rot Pathogen Sarocladium Oryzae [PDF]
Sheath rot is an emerging rice disease that leads to considerable yield losses. The main causal agent is the fungus Sarocladium oryzae. This pathogen is known to produce the toxins cerulenin and helvolic acid, but their role in pathogenicity has not been

Patulin Inhibition of Mycovirus Replication in Penicillium stoloniferum [PDF]
Penicillium stoloniferum NRRL5267 contains two electrophoretically distinct viruses (PsV-F and PsV-S). An in vivo system was developed to test whether a number of fungal metabolites had antiviral properties on PsV-F replication in O.erties on PsV-F replication in P. stoloniferum.
