Diverged and Active Partitiviruses in Lichen

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
The lichen is a microbial consortium that mainly consists of fungi and either algae (Viridiplantae) or cyanobacteria. This structure also contains other bacteria, fungi, and viruses.

Evaluation of Virus-Free and Wild-Type Isolates of Pseudogymnoascus destructans Using a Porcine Ear Model

open access: yesmSphere, 2022
White-nose syndrome (WNS), responsible for the mass mortality of North American bats, lacks economically viable and practical in vitro models for Pseudogymnoascus destructans infection, the causative agent of WNS.

Discovery and characterization of novel Aspergillus fumigatus mycoviruses. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
In the last few years, increasing numbers of viruses infecting fungi have been identified. In this study, we used an in silico approach for the analysis of deep RNA sequencing data in order to discover and characterize putative genomic ssRNA or dsRNA ...

Establishment of a novel virus‐induced virulence effector assay for the identification of virulence effectors of plant pathogens using a PVX‐based expression vector

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 21, Issue 12, Page 1654-1661, December 2020., 2020
The VIVE assay uses the potato virus X vector to transiently express candidate effectors in Nicotiana benthamiana leaves, and could be used for rapid identification of putative virulence effectors in various plant pathogens. Abstract Plant pathogens deliver virulence effectors into plant cells to modulate plant immunity and facilitate infection ...

Backbone Trace of Partitivirus Capsid Protein from Electron Cryomicroscopy and Homology Modeling [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2010
Most dsRNA viruses have a genome-enclosing capsid that comprises 120 copies of a single coat protein (CP). These 120 CP subunits are arranged as asymmetrical dimers that surround the icosahedral fivefold axes, forming pentamers of dimers that are thought to be assembly intermediates.

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

open access: yesViruses, 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.

Profile and functional analysis of small RNAs derived from Aspergillus fumigatus infected with double-stranded RNA mycoviruses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background: Mycoviruses are viruses that naturally infect and replicate in fungi. Aspergillus fumigatus, an opportunistic pathogen causing fungal lung diseases in humans and animals, was recently shown to harbour several different types of mycoviruses. A

Facing Rose rosette virus: A risk to European rose cultivation

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 69, Issue 9, Page 1603-1617, December 2020., 2020
In this review we describe current knowledge about Rose rosette virus, the molecular and serological methods available for its detection, pathways to entry, and the possible impact if it establishes and spreads in Europe. Abstract Roses (Rosa) are one of the most valuable ornamental flowering shrubs around the globe.

Evidence for a Novel Partitivirus Isolated From Entomopathogenic Nematode Steinernema Ceratophorum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Abstract Nematodes are abundant, yet little is known about their viruses. In this study, we report a novel partitivirus isolated from Entomopathogenic nematode specie “Steinernema ceratophorum, named as Steinernema ceratophorum Partiti-like Virus 1 (ScPV1).
