The genus Nucleopolyhedrovirus (NPV) of the family Baculoviridae can be subdivided phylogenetically into two groups. The same division can be made on the basis of their budded virus (BV) envelope fusion protein. Group I NPVs are characterized by the presence of a GP64-like major envelope fusion protein, which is involved in viral attachment and the ...

Baculovirus Nuclear Import: Open, Nuclear Pore Complex (NPC) Sesame
Baculoviruses are one of the largest viruses that replicate in the nucleus of their host cells. During infection, the rod-shape, 250-nm long nucleocapsid delivers its genome into the nucleus.

Genomic sequence analysis of granulovirus isolated from the tobacco cutworm, Spodoptera litura. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Spodoptera litura is a noctuid moth that is considered an agricultural pest. The larvae feed on a wide range of plants and have been recorded on plants from 40 plant families (mostly dicotyledons). It is a major pest of many crops.

Comparative genome sequence analysis of Choristoneura occidentalis Freeman and C. rosaceana Harris (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) alphabaculoviruses. [PDF]
The complete genome sequences of Choristoneura occidentalis and C. rosaceana nucleopolyhedroviruses (ChocNPV and ChroNPV, respectively) (Baculoviridae: Alphabaculovirus) were determined and compared with each other and with those of other baculoviruses ...

Granulovirus GP37 Facilitated ODVs Cross Insect Peritrophic Membranes and Fuse with Epithelia
The Cydia pomonella granulovirus (CpGV) GP37 has synergistic effects on the infectivity of nucleopolyhedroviruses (NPVs), however, the mechanism employed is unclear. In this study, in vitro and in vivo binding assays indicated that GP37 efficiently bound

The combined application of a baculovirus (Trichoplusia ni Hübner (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), T. ni single nucleopolyhedrovirus, TniSNPV) and Beauveria bassiana against the cabbage looper Trichoplusia ni was not more effective compared to singly applied TniSPNV.

Role of Nucleopolyhedroviruses (NPVs) in the Management of Lepidopteran Pests in Asia [PDF]
The use of synthetic insecticides has been the major approach in modern agriculture for controlling insect pests on different crops in most of the developing countries. Chemical control is one of the effective and quicker methods in reducing pest population, where farmer obtains spectacular results within a short period.
