Article Synopsis
- A team of over 180 researchers from more than 40 countries is addressing the issues related to "phantom agents," which are proposed pathogenic agents that are listed without concrete evidence of their existence.
- These phantom agents, identified only through symptoms and lacking proper isolates or genetic data, create obstacles for trade and plant certification, making effective detection and risk assessment difficult.
- The researchers recommend removing these agents from regulatory lists and updating standards in line with modern diagnostic methods to facilitate germplasm exchange and support global agriculture.
Viruses in the include monopartite and bipartite genomes, suggesting the possibility to study members of this family to experimentally address evolutionary transitions resulting in multipartitism. Torradoviruses are bipartite members of the family characterized by a genus-specific 5' open reading frame, named P21, encoded by RNA2. Here, in a study originally intended to verify if P21 can function , we attempted to provide P21 from a third P21-expressing construct under control of the 35S promoter and containing the 5'- and 3'-untranslated regions (UTRs) of wild-type (WT) RNA2.

Methods: In this single-center, prospective, randomized, double-blind trial, we consented 92 adult patients scheduled for elective major abdominal or thoracic surgery. These patients either had isolated iron deficiency (plasma ferritin <100 ng/mL or transferrin saturation < 20 %) or iron deficiency anemia (hemoglobin (Hb) 100-130 g/L with plasma ferritin <100 ng/mL or transferrin saturation < 20 %).
Article Synopsis
- - The family discussed consists of viruses that have either a mono- or multi-segmented positive-sense RNA genome and primarily infect plants and filamentous fungi.
- - This family includes several genera of plant viruses and fungal viruses.
- - The information is sourced from the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) Report on the family, which can be accessed online.
The functional relevance of plant-associated microorganisms is theoretically framed within the holobiont concept. The role of viruses in plant holobionts is being recognized both for their direct effects when hosted in plants (cryptic plant viruses) and for their indirect effects when infecting microorganisms associated with plants in tripartite interactions (e.g.
