Smaller Fleas: Viruses of Microorganisms

Scientifica, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Life forms can be roughly differentiated into those that are microscopic versus those that are not as well as those that are multicellular and those that, instead, are unicellular. Cellular organisms seem generally able to host viruses, and this propensity carries over to those that are both microscopic and less than truly multicellular.

Taxonomic reorganization of family Partitiviridae and other recent progress in partitivirus research

Virus Research, 2014
Phylogenetic analyses have prompted a taxonomic reorganization of family Partitiviridae (encapsidated, bisegmented dsRNA viruses that infect plants, fungi, or protozoa), the focus of this review. After a brief introduction to partitiviruses, the taxonomic changes are discussed, including replacement of former genera Partitivirus, Alphacryptovirus, and ...

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

, 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).

Cherry chlorotic rusty spot and Amasya cherry diseases are associated with a complex pattern of mycoviral-like double-stranded RNAs. II : Characterization of a new species in the genus Partitivirus

, 2004
Two dsRNAs from cherry trees affected with cherry chlorotic rusty spot (CCRS) in Italy and Amasya cherry disease (ACD) in Turkey were sequenced and found to be essentially identical.

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

Biophysical 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.

Decoding the RNA virome of the tree parasite Armillaria provides new insights into the viral community of soil‐borne fungi

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 26, Issue 2, February 2024.
The soil microbiome harbours an unexplored biodiversity. We examined RNA viruses of the soil‐borne basidiomycete Armillaria and found an extremely uneven distribution of viruses, ranging from viruses found in all species or only in one isolate. Co‐infections with several viruses and re‐sampling the same virus over decades were not uncommon.

Molecular characterization of the complete genome of a novel partitivirus hosted by the saprobic mushroom Leucocybe candicans

, 2021
Virus communities of uncultivated fungi stay largely unknown. In the current study, we characterized a new partitivirus species detected in the basidiomycetous, saprobic mushroom Leucocybe candicans, named "Leucocybe candicans partitivirus 1" (LcPV1 ...

Characterization of Codon Usage Patterns and Evolutionary Relationships in Partitiviruses

, 2019
This study investigated the overall sequence characteristics and codon usage patterns of Partitiviridae viruses and applied them to viruses that are part of the family Partitiviridae but are unassigned to a genus.
