Diverse, Novel Mycoviruses From the Virome of a Hypovirulent Sclerotium rolfsii Strain

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Sclerotium rolfsii, which causes southern blight in a wide variety of crops, is a devastating plant pathogen worldwide. Mycoviruses that induce hypovirulence in phytopathogenic fungi are potential biological control resources against fungal plant ...

Comparative Analysis of Mycoviral Curing Techniques for Evaluating Fungal Host Fitness

JTPP: Journal of Tropical Plant Protection
The viruses that infect fungi are called mycoviruses, and they were initially discovered in mushrooms. The prevalence of new mycoviruses has increased due to breakthroughs in sequencing methods.

A biocontrol perspective on mycoviruses in fungal pathogen management [PDF]

Mycoviruses, viruses that infect fungi, have been identified across nearly every fungal taxon. Despite their widespread presence, the ecological effects of mycoviruses remain poorly understood.

Structure and assembly of double-stranded RNA mycoviruses

, 2020
Mycoviruses are a diverse group that includes ssRNA, dsRNA, and ssDNA viruses, with or without a protein capsid, as well as with a complex envelope. Most mycoviruses are transmitted by cytoplasmic interchange and are thought to lack an extracellular ...

Mycoviral Population Dynamics in Spanish Isolates of the Entomopathogenic Fungus Beauveria bassiana

Viruses, 2018
The use of mycoviruses to manipulate the virulence of entomopathogenic fungi employed as biocontrol agents may lead to the development of novel methods to control attacks by insect pests.

[Mycoviruses and importance in mycology].

Mikrobiyoloji bulteni, 2018
Opportunistic fungal infections like invasive candidiasis and aspergillozis have high mortality rate particularly in immunosupressive patients. The rate of therapy success with antifungal agents is usually low. Although immunotherapy methods have been developed to increase the host response against antifungals, there has been a need for new antifungal ...

Mycoviruses infecting Fusarium culmorum (W.G. Smith) Sacc.

, 2016
Fusarium culmorum is a plant pathogenic fungus that causes foot and root rot and ‘Fusarium head blight’ diseases in cereals and particular on wheat and barley. The fungus is also responsible for mycotoxins accumulation on grain. In the last years several

Mycoviruses Increase the Attractiveness of Fusarium graminearum for Fungivores and Suppress Production of the Mycotoxin Deoxynivalenol [PDF]

RNA viruses of the genera Ambivirus, Mitovirus, Sclerotimonavirus, and Partitivirus were found in a single isolate of Fusarium graminearum. The genomes of the mitovirus, sclerotimonavirus, and partitivirus were assigned to previously described viruses ...

Survey of Early-Diverging Lineages of Fungi Reveals Abundant and Diverse Mycoviruses

, 2020
Mycoviruses are widespread and purportedly common throughout the fungal kingdom, although most are known from hosts in the two most recently diverged phyla, Ascomycota and Basidiomycota, together called Dikarya.
