Rhizomania: Hide and Seek of and the Beet Necrotic Yellow Vein Virus with .

The molecular interactions between , the protist vector of sugar beet viruses, beet necrotic yellow vein virus (BNYVV), the causal agent of rhizomania, and have not been extensively studied. Here, the transmission of BNYVV to sugar beet by zoospores was optimized using genetically characterized organisms. Molecular interactions of aviruliferous and viruliferous protist infection on sugar beet were highlighted by transcriptomic analysis.

Metagenomics approach for Polymyxa betae genome assembly enables comparative analysis towards deciphering the intracellular parasitic lifestyle of the plasmodiophorids.

Genomic knowledge of the tree of life is biased to specific groups of organisms. For example, only six full genomes are currently available in the rhizaria clade. Here, we have applied metagenomic techniques enabling the assembly of the genome of Polymyxa betae (Rhizaria, Plasmodiophorida) RES F41 isolate from unpurified zoospore holobiont and comparison with the A26-41 isolate.

Genomic and biological characterization of a novel partitivirus infecting Fusarium equiseti.

This study describes a new mycovirus infecting a strain from the Fusarium incarnatum-equiseti species complex. Based on phylogenetic and genomic analyses, this virus belongs to the recently proposed genus "Zetapartitivirus" in the family Partitiviridae. The name "Fusarium equiseti partitivirus 1″ (FePV1) is therefore suggested for this novel viral species.

RNA silencing machinery contributes to inability of BSBV to establish infection in : evidence from characterization of agroinfectious clones of .

(BSBV) is a sugar beet pomovirus frequently associated with , the causal agent of the rhizomania disease. BSBV has been detected in most of the major beet-growing regions worldwide, yet its impact on this crop remains unclear. With the aim to understand the life cycle of this virus and clarify its putative pathogenicity, agroinfectious clones have been engineered for each segment of its tripartite genome.

Full genome sequence of a new polymycovirus infecting Fusarium redolens.

By screening a collection of Fusarium spp. for the presence of dsRNA, the Fusarium redolens strain A63-1 was found harboring a pattern of multiple dsRNA bands when analyzed by agarose gel electrophoresis. Using NextSeq Illumina sequencing, the full sequences of eight dsRNA molecules were determined, compared to databases, and gathered into a new viral genome.
