Soil as an Environmental Reservoir for Baculoviruses: Persistence, Dispersal and Role in Pest Control

Soil Systems, 2023
Baculoviruses are DNA viruses that can naturally control insects and form the basis for a range of biological insecticides. These viruses are occluded in a crystalline protein matrix, the occlusion body (OB), which favors their persistence in the ...

Nucleopolyhedrovirus: scanning electron microscopy technique [PDF]

Neotropical Entomology, 2006
A simplified methodology was developed to study the geometric form of multiple Bombyx mori Nucleopolyhedrovirus by scanning electron microscopy. The virus belongs to Baculoviridae family and was isolated from the silkworm Bombyx mori (L.) (Lepidoptera: Bombycidae).
