Molecular characterization of four novel mycoviruses in entomopathogenic and nematophagous fungi
Overview The world of mycoviruses—viruses that infect fungi—has long been dominated by studies on plant-associated fungi. Recent work, however, has begun to illuminate viruses that inhabit fungi with ecological roles in animal health and pest control. A new study reports the molecular characterization of four novel mycoviruses isolated from entomopathogenic and nematophagous fungi, shedding light…
