Advancing the field of viroporins—Structure, function and pharmacology: IUPHAR Review 39
Viroporins possess important potential as antiviral targets due to their critical roles during virus life cycles, spanning from virus entry to egress. Although the antiviral amantadine targets the M2 viroporin of influenza A virus, successful progression of other viroporin inhibitors into clinical use remains challenging.

Rice Black-streaked Dwarf Virus Preparation and Infection on Rice
Rice black-streaked dwarf virus (RBSDV), a member of genus Fijivirus in the family Reoviridae, infects rice, maize, barley and wheat, and can seriously affect crop yields. RBSDV is transmitted by the small brown planthopper (Laodelphax striatellus, SBPH)

The role of cellular adhesion molecules in virus attachment and entry [PDF]
As obligate intracellular parasites, viruses must traverse the host-cell plasma membrane to initiate infection. This presents a formidable barrier, which they have evolved diverse strategies to overcome.

Development of nanobodies against the coat protein of maize chlorotic mottle virus
Accurate detection of plant diseases is crucial for their effective control, and nanobodies are an attractive alternative for the development of sensitive and accurate diagnostic plant pathogen tools. We developed and tested the use of nanobodies for the detection of maize chlorotic mottle virus, which causes maize lethal necrosis disease. Maize lethal

Detection of Human Group a and C Rotaviruses in Pediatric Patients with Acute Gastroenteritis by Real TIME RT-PCR Assay: a Preliminary Study [PDF]
Rotavirus causes 25–55% of all hospital admissions for diarrhea and approximately 611.000 deaths every year in developing countries. Clinically, it is not possible to recognize the diarrhea caused by rotavirus and other infections.

Structural constraints in the packaging of bluetongue virus genomic segments. [PDF]
The mechanism used by bluetongue virus (BTV) to ensure the sorting and packaging of its 10 genomic segments is still poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the packaging constraints for two BTV genomic segments from two different serotypes ...
