Botrytis virus X ORF2 suppresses RNA silencing in a trigger-restricted manner and is associated with altered Dicer-like gene expression in Botrytis cinerea
RNA interference (RNAi) is a central antiviral defence mechanism in fungi, yet relatively few mycoviral suppressors of RNA silencing (VSRs) have been functionally characterized, particularly in phytopathogenic hosts. Botrytis virus X (BV...

A high-quality telomere-to-telomere lumpy skin disease virus genome assembly
Lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV) is an emerging livestock capripoxvirus (CaPV) that continues to cause substantial economic losses across Africa, Asia and Europe. However, important uncertainties remain regarding LSDV genome structure, pa...

Into the wild: a long-term study of begomovirus community dynamics in a natural landscape
Begomoviruses have been the subject of many evolutionary studies that explored their temporal dynamics; however, most of the studies relied on sequences retrieved from public repositories rather than hypothesis-driven sampling. These dat...

Molecular characterization and infectious clone construction of beet capulavirus 1 infecting tomato in Germany
Capulavirus betae (beet capulavirus 1, BCV1) is a recently described species of the genus Capulavirus (family Geminiviridae ) that was first identified in sugar beet in France. Capulaviruses are new group of geminiviruses because they ar...

ORF2 of hepatitis E virus: genetic and antigenic variation across genotypes and implications for immunity, diagnostics and vaccine development
Hepatitis E virus (HEV) causes over 19 million infections annually, yet the molecular determinants governing its diverse clinical phenotypes and cross-genotype immunity remain incompletely synthesized. The ORF2 capsid protein is the sole...

Herpes simplex virus type 2 induces S-phase entry and arrest to regulate the cell cycle for efficient replication
Viruses often hijack core host cell processes to optimize their replication. In the current study, we conducted comparative proteomics analyses of epithelial cells infected by the prevalent human pathogen herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV...

First isolation of a novel tottorivirus from wild boar faeces in Japan
Viruses of the genus Tottorivirus (family Picornaviridae ) have been identified in pigs but no isolates have been reported to date. In this study, a novel tottorivirus strain, designated Tottori/tc/Wild Boar/Japan/Ishi-6/2020 (Ishi-6), w...

Snake kolmiovirus encodes a single form of delta antigen and shows no evidence of translation from ORF2
Hepatitis D virus (HDV) is a satellite virus that utilizes hepatitis B virus (HBV) as a helper for infectious particle formation. HDV was originally identified as a novel antigen in liver biopsies of HBV patients, and later studies showe...

Sensitive reverse transcription-digital droplet PCR-based discrimination of hepatitis delta virus RNAs reveals differential effects of interferon-α on viral RNA species
Hepatitis delta virus (HDV) replication relies on the production of distinct viral RNA species, including genomic (HDV-G), antigenomic (HDV-AG) and mRNAs (HDV mRNAs), which differ in abundance and function. However, the lack of sensitive...

An in silico study of tymovirus virocells
We used computational tools to study the tymoviral proteome. Past gene sequence comparisons had shown that tymovirus genomes encode five proteins already identified in other viruses; however, our AlphaFold3 modelling found, in addition t...
