In this study, we determined the complete genome sequence of a novel totivirus, tentatively named "Mangifera indica totivirus 1" (MiTV1), identified in 'Apple' mango in China. The double-stranded RNA genome of MiTV1 is 4800 base pairs (bp) in length and contains two open reading frames (ORFs) encoding a putative coat protein (CP) and an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp). Phylogenetic analysis based on RdRp and CP amino acid sequences showed that MiTV1 is closely related to members of the genus Totivirus in the family Totiviridae. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a totivirus found in Mangifera indica.

Conidiobolus sensu lato, a genus within the family Ancylistaceae, encompasses a diverse range of fungal species that are widely distributed in plant debris and soil. In this study, we identified three double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) viruses coinfecting a strain of Conidiobolus taihushanensis. These viruses were identified as Conidiobolus taihushanensis totivirus 1 (CtTV1), Conidiobolus nonsegmented RNA virus 1-2 (CNRV1-2), and Conidiobolus taihushanensis virus 1 (CtV1).

The mass rearing of animals in close quarters can be highly conducive to microbe transmission, including pathogens. This has been shown multiple times in the case of important industrial insects such as crickets, silkworms, and honeybees. One industrial insect of increasing importance is the black soldier fly (Diptera: ), as it can convert organic waste into high-quality protein and fatty acids.

A novel totivirus, named "birch toti-like virus" (BTLV), was discovered in European white birch (Betula pendula) plants. The genome of BTLV is 4,967 nucleotides long and contains two overlapping open reading frames (ORFs) coding for the capsid protein (CP) and an RNA-dependent RNA-polymerase (RdRP). The encoded CP and RdRP proteins shared 46.

Chinese bayberry is a fruit that is appreciated for its taste. A novel totivirus associated with rolling, disfiguring, chlorotic and vein-clearing symptoms on the leaf apices of Chinese bayberry was identified by transcriptome sequencing and reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR). The complete genome of the virus was determined to be 4959 nucleotides long, and it contains two open reading frames (ORFs).
