Determinants of Virus Variation, Evolution, and Host Adaptation [PDF]
Virus evolution is the change in the genetic structure of a viral population over time and results in the emergence of new viral variants, strains, and species with novel biological properties, including adaptation to new hosts.

Loss-of-Function of Two PD-Associated Proteins Confers Resistance to Rice Stripe Virus. [PDF]
Rice importin α4 and flotillin 1, as proteins associated with plasmodesmata (PD), facilitate the enlargement of PD apertures by diminishing callose deposition at these structures, thereby promoting the intercellular translocation of RSV. ABSTRACT Plant viruses usually exploit plasmodesmata (PDs) to achieve cellular infection in host plants. Although PD‐

JA-responsive R2R3-type MYB transcription factor OsMYB4P confers broad-spectrum antiviral immunity in rice. [PDF]
Summary Jasmonic acid (JA) plays a critical role in antiviral defence in rice, where viral infection activates JA signalling by degrading Jasmonate ZIM domain (JAZ) proteins, thereby releasing transcription factors (TFs) to drive JA‐mediated defence gene expression. While the JA‐responsive TF OsMYC2 has been extensively studied in rice, the involvement

The speed of tubule formation of two fijiviruses corresponds with their dissemination efficiency in their insect vectors [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Rice black-streaked dwarf virus (RBSDV) and Southern rice black-streaked dwarf virus (SRBSDV) are two closely related fijiviruses transmitted by the small brown planthopper (SBPH) and white-backed planthopper (WBPH), respectively.

Bacterial endosymbiont Cardinium cSfur genome sequence provides insights for understanding the symbiotic relationship in Sogatella furcifera host [PDF]
Background: Sogatella furcifera is a migratory pest that damages rice plants and causes severe economic losses. Due to its ability to annually migrate long distances, S.furcifera has emerged as a major pest of rice in several Asian countries.

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.
