Interferon γ (IFN–γ) is now considered to be one of the key molecules in the regulation of innate and adaptive immunity. The function of IFN–γ is best described in humans, but less of IFN–γ in fish species ha...
Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) is one of the most hazardous viruses, which causes huge economic losses in the cattle industry around the world. In recent years, there has been a continuous increase in the diversity of pestivirus worldwide. As a m...
Fanleaf degeneration is a complex viral disease of Vitis spp. that detrimentally impacts fruit yield and reduces the productive lifespan of most vineyards worldwide. In France, its main causal agent is grapevine fanleaf virus (GFLV). In the past, fie...
An adequate SARS-CoV-2 genomic surveillance strategy has proven to be essential for countries to obtain a thorough understanding of the variants and lineages being imported and successfully established within their borders. During 2020, genomic surve...
In this work, we describe a novel temperate bacteriophage, Bacillus phage B13. Bacillus-infecting phages are widespread and abundant, though often overlooked including because of their temperate lifestyle. B13 was isolated from its bacterial host via...
Solid organ transplant recipients (SOTRs) show higher rates of COVID-19 breakthrough infection than the general population, and nowadays, vaccination is the key preventative strategy. Nonetheless, SOTRs show lower vaccine efficacy for the prevention...
Viruses, as intracellular parasites, rely on the host organism to complete their life cycle. Although over 70% of plant viruses are transmitted by insect vectors, the role of vector energy metabolism on the infection process of insect-borne plant vir...
An emerging virus isolated from papaya (Carica papaya) crops in northwestern (NW) Argentina was sequenced and characterized using next-generation sequencing. The resulting genome is 6667-nt long and encodes five open reading frames in an arrangement...
It has been argued that vaccine-breakthrough infections of SARS-CoV-2 would likely accelerate the emergence of novel variants with immune evasion. This study explored the evolutionary patterns of the Delta variant in countries/regions with relatively...
Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is associated with vascular endothelial cell tumor, Kaposi’s sarcoma (KS) and lymphoproliferative disorder, multicentric Castleman’s disease (MCD), primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) and K...
