It is just over 20 years since the landmark discovery was made by Baltimore et al.(1970) that
vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) packages within the mature virion the vital RNA-dependent …

Bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV) infection is the major cause of respiratory disease
in calves during the first year of life. The study of the virus has been difficult because of its …

Borna disease virus is a neurotropic negative-strand RNA virus that infects a wide range of

Background Post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS) by short interfering RNA has
opened up new directions in the phenotypic mutation of cellular genes. However, its efficacy …

Mycoviruses are an important component of the virosphere, but our current knowledge of
