High-throughput virome analyses with various fungi, from cultured or uncultured sources,
have led to the discovery of diverse viruses with unique genome structures and even neo …

Abstract Knowledge of mycovirus diversity, evolution, horizontal gene transfer and shared
ancestry with viruses infecting distantly related hosts, such as plants and arthropods, has …

Our current understanding of plant viruses stems largely from those affecting economically
important plants. Yet plant species in cultivation represent a small and biased subset of the …

Prior to 2017, the family Bunyaviridae included five genera of arthropod and rodent viruses
with tri-segmented negative-sense RNA genomes related to the Bunyamwera virus. In 2017 …

The globally distributed basidiomycete genus Armillaria includes wood decomposers that
can act as opportunistic parasites, causing deadly root rot on woody plants. To test whether …

Phytophthora castaneae, an oomycete pathogen causing root and trunk rot of different tree
species in Asia, was shown to harbor a rich diversity of novel viruses from different families …

Heterobasidion annosum sensu lato comprises some of the most devastating pathogens of
conifers. Exploring virocontrol as a potential strategy to mitigate economic losses caused by …

Marine oomycetes have recently been shown to be concurrently infected by (−) ssRNA
viruses of the order Bunyavirales. In this work, even higher virus variability was found in a …

Phytophthora cactorum is an important oomycetous plant pathogen with numerous host
plant species, including garden strawberry (Fragaria× ananassa) and silver birch (Betula …

The native Japanese population of the fungus Hymenoscyphus fraxineus, the causal agent
of ash dieback in Europe, was screened for viruses using a high-throughput sequencing …
