The pollen virome of wild plants and its association with variation in floral traits and land use

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Pollen is a unique vehicle for viral spread. Pollen-associated viruses hitchhike on or within pollen grains and are transported to other plants by pollinators. They are deposited on flowers and have a direct pathway into the plant and next generation via

Characterization of a new partitivirus strain in Verticillium dahliae provides further evidence of the spread of the highly virulent defoliating pathotype through new introductions

open access: yesPhytopathologia Mediterranea, 2015
The soilborne pathogen Verticillium dahliae, causal agent of Verticillium wilt, has a worldwide distribution and many hosts of agronomic value. The worldwide spread of a highly virulent defoliating (D) pathotype has greatly increased the threat posed by ...

Mycoviruses of an endophytic fungus can replicate in plant cells: evolutionary implications

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
So far there is no record of a specific virus able to infect both fungal and plant hosts in nature. However, experimental evidence shows that some plant virus RdRPs are able to perform replication in trans of genomic or DI RNAs in the yeast Saccharomyces

A novel partitivirus conferring hypovirulence by affecting vesicle transport in the fungus Colletotrichum

open access: yesmBio
Colletotrichum spp. are economically important phytopathogenic fungi that cause anthracnose in a variety of plant species worldwide. Hypovirulence-associated mycoviruses provide new options for the biological control of plant fungal diseases.

Unmapped RNA Virus Diversity in Termites and Their Symbionts

open access: yesViruses, 2020
Despite their ecological importance, nothing is known about the diversity and abundance of RNA viruses in termites (Termitoidae). We used a metatranscriptomics approach to determine the RNA virome structure of 50 diverse species of termite that differ in

Seven new mycoviruses identified from isolated ascomycetous macrofungi

open access: yesVirus Research
Mycoviruses have been described in all major fungal taxonomic groups. There has been much focus on commercially cultivated basidiomycetous macrofungi, while attention to viruses from ascomycetous macrofungi is lacking.

Atkinsonella hypoxylon virus capsid structure highlights the diversity of capsid proteins among the Partitiviridae

open access: yes
Abstract Atkinsonella hypoxylon virus (AhV) is a fungi-infecting betapartitivirus and the typical member of the Partitiviridae, a family of persistent viruses that infects a broad range of organisms. Partitiviruses have been largely overlooked following their designation as cryptic viruses.

Novel mycoviruses discovered in a single strain of Pleurotus ostreatus

open access: yesPhytopathology Research
Pleurotus ostreatus (oyster mushroom) is a globally cultivated and highly nutritious mushroom. However, viral infections posed significant challenges to its cultivation, causing tremendous loss of quality and yield.
