A Novel Totivirus Naturally Occurring in Two Different Fungal Genera
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019 Mycoviruses are widely distributed across different phyla of the fungal kingdom. Viruses that share significant sequence similarities have been reported in different fungi, suggesting descent from a common ancestor.

Molecular characterization of a novel mycovirus in the cultivated mushroom, Lentinula edodes [PDF]
Virology Journal, 2012 In the 1970s, mycoviruses were identified that infected the edible mushroom Lentinula edodes (shiitake), but they were not regarded as causal agents for mushroom diseases. None of their genes has been sequenced. In this study, the dsRNA genome of a mycovirus recently found in a shiitake commercial strain was sequenced and its molecular structure was ...

First Evidence for Internal Ribosomal Entry Sites in Diverse Fungal Virus Genomes
mBio, 2018 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.

Characterization of the RNA Mycovirus Infecting Allomyces arbuscula
Journal of General Virology, 1977 Summary The mycovirus infecting Allomyces arbuscula has been fractionated into two particle classes designated A and B. Particles A have a buoyant density of 1.385 g/cm3, in CsCl, a sedimentation coefficient of 75S and contain one major and two minor polypeptides with molecular weights of 34000, 31000 and 28000, respectively.

Bunyaviruses Affect Growth, Sporulation, and Elicitin Production in Phytophthora cactorum
Viruses, 2022 Phytophthora cactorum is an important oomycetous plant pathogen with numerous host plant species, including garden strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa) and silver birch (Betula pendula). P. cactorum also hosts mycoviruses, but their phenotypic effects on the

Molecular Microbiology, Volume 125, Issue 2, Page 133-144, February 2026.The mechanisms of small RNA biogenesis in fungi are diverse and multifactorial. Here, we provide an improved understanding of the processing of double‐stranded RNA in the human fungal pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus, revealing susceptibility to high levels of double‐stranded RNA and limited input of the canonical RNAi machinery on the endogenous small ...

Characterization of the mycovirus Aspergillus sulphureus partitivirus 1
Archives of VirologyAbstract Fungi are frequently infected with viruses called mycoviruses. Some mycoviruses have shown potential as biocontrol agents because they can weaken the virulence of fungal plant pathogens. Intensive research has been conducted on the diversity of viruses infecting plant pathogens and the functions of such ...
