Molecular Characterization of the First Partitivirus from a Causal Agent of Salvia miltiorrhiza Dry Rot [PDF]
Root rot as a result of Salvia miltiorrhiza is a common root disease caused by Fusarium spp., which has become one of the main diseases affecting the production of S. miltiorrhiza. Currently, several hypovirulence-related mycoviruses have been identified

Cannabis Virome Reconstruction and Antiviral RNAi Characterization through Small RNA Sequencing
Viral infections pose an emerging threat to hemp (Cannabis sativa) cultivation. We used Illumina small (s)RNA sequencing for virome reconstruction and characterization of antiviral RNA interference (RNAi) in monoecious and dioecious hemp varieties, which

Metatranscriptomic Analysis Uncovers RNA Virus Diversity in Ticks From the China-Russia-North Korea Border Region. [PDF]
Ticks serve as critical viral vectors, and border regions, acting as convergence zones of complex ecosystems, provide diverse habitats for ticks and their hosts, thereby underscoring the need to investigate the tick‐borne virome composition in such areas. In this study, metatranscriptomic analysis of five tick species, namely Haemaphysalis longicornis,

Discovery of novel dsRNA viral sequences by in silico cloning and implications for viral diversity, host range and evolution. [PDF]
Genome sequence of viruses can contribute greatly to the study of viral evolution, diversity and the interaction between viruses and hosts. Traditional molecular cloning methods for obtaining RNA viral genomes are time-consuming and often difficult ...

ICTV Virus Taxonomy Profile: Partitiviridae
The Partitiviridae is a family of small, isometric, non-enveloped viruses with bisegmented double-stranded (ds) RNA genomes of 3–4.8 kbp. The two genome segments are individually encapsidated. The family has five genera, with characteristic hosts for members of each genus: either plants or fungi for genera Alphapartitivirus and Betapartitivirus, fungi ...
