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

Mosquito-specific viruses (MSVs) are a subset of insect-specific viruses that are found to
infect mosquitoes or mosquito derived cells. There has been an increase in discoveries of …

The obligatory biotrophic oomycetes Plasmopara viticola is the causal agent of downy
mildew, a destructive disease of grapevine worldwide. So far, chemical fungicides are …

Endogenous viral elements (EVEs) are viral sequences integrated in host genomes. A large
number of non-retroviral EVEs was recently detected in Aedes mosquito genomes, leading …

Mutualistic plant-associated fungi are recognized as important drivers in plant evolution,
diversity, and health. The discovery that mycoviruses can take part and play important roles …

Mosquitoes are major infectious disease-carrying vectors. Assessment of current and future
risks associated with the mosquito population requires knowledge of the full repertoire of …

Aedes aegypti mosquitoes are the main vectors of arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) of
public health significance, such as the flaviviruses dengue virus (DENV) and Zika virus …

Mosquitoes are vectors of a large number of viral pathogens. In recent years, increased
urbanization and climate change has expanded the range of many vector mosquitoes. The …

Simple Summary Three small RNA pathways, representing miRNAs, siRNAs and piRNAs,
exist in insects. Of the three pathways, piRNAs and Piwi proteins appear to have the most …

Background Aedes aegypti is a vector mosquito of major public health importance,
transmitting arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) such as chikungunya, dengue, yellow …
