Migration of rice planthoppers and their vectored re-emerging and novel rice viruses in East Asia
This review examines recent studies of the migration of three rice planthoppers, Laodelphax striatellus, Sogatella furcifera, and Nilaparvata lugens, in East Asia. Laodelphax striatellus has recently broken out in Jiangsu province, eastern China.

A fijivirus major viroplasm protein shows RNA-stimulated ATPase activity by adopting pentameric and hexameric assemblies of dimers [PDF]
Fijiviruses replicate and package their genomes within viroplasms in a process involving RNA-RNA and RNA-protein interactions. Here, we demonstrate that the 24 C-terminal residues (C-arm) of the P9-1 major viroplasm protein of the mal de Río Cuarto virus

Characterization of Rice black-streaked dwarf virus in Maize
This study was carried out to identify the Rice black-streaked dwarf virus that infected maize plants collected from Gochang-gun in Jeollabukdo in 2005. The genomic dsRNA from infected plants was extracted and the genome pattern was analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.

Distribution and genetic diversity of Southern rice black-streaked dwarf viru s in China [PDF]
Abstract Background Rice and maize dwarf diseases caused by the newly introduced Southern rice black-streaked dwarf virus (SRBSDV) have led to severe economic losses in South China in recent years. The distribution and diversity of SRBSDV have not been investigated in the main rice and maize growing areas in China. In
