Theory of Aging Related to Bacteria, Fungi, and Viruses The theory of aging related to the impact of bacteria, fungi, and viruses is known as the „Microbial Theory of Aging.“ This theory

Ophiocordyceps unilateralis, commonly known as zombie-ant fungus, [2] is an insect-pathogenic fungus, discovered by the British naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace in 1859. Zombie ants, Mycoviruses, as components of the endohyphal microbiome, have been extensively identified in major fungal and oomycetous groups. While most mycoviral infections are asymptomatic, quite Virions of „Sclerotinia sclerotiorum negative-stranded RNA virus 1“ (SsNSRV-1), a mycovirus of family „Mymonaviridae“. Mycoviruses (Ancient Greek: μύκης mykes („fungus“) + Latin virus),

Fungal viruses, called mycovirus, are widespread in the Fungi domain and are usually associated with symptomless infections [1]. In the current scientific literature, viromes encoding satellite viruses rely on helper virus genes for their maintenance and replication in the fungal host cell. (c) Fungi process a preprotoxin that is encoded on the satellite virus genome. 2. Manipulation of host phenotypes Parasitic organisms have evolved manipulation strategies to enhance their fitness. Evidence suggests that at least some species

Fungal virulence in plant pathogenic fungi can be modulated by viruses that infect fungi, also known as mycoviruses. However, their impact on fungal pathogenesis in mammals has Keywords: evolved manipulation strategies to enhance Mycovirus, Fungal endophytes, High-throughput sequencing, Fungi, Mycobiome, Endophyte virus Fungal endophytes and mycoviruses Fungi that reside inside living organisms

There are countless examples of plant, animal and bacterial viruses that cause severe symptoms of disease, sometimes with considerable socio-economic consequences. Viruses of fungi, Plant-associated fungi are infected by viruses at the incidence rates from a few % to over 90%. Multiple viruses often coinfect fungal hosts, and occasionally alter their phenotypes, but most of

Here, we present a framework for categorizing virus phenotypes that encompasses both virion and virocell stages and considers functional and performance traits of A huge number of mycoviruses have been identified in this genus; some of these viruses are reported to have a hypovirulent effect on the fitness of their fungal hosts. Viruses are genetic elements that parasitize self-replicating cells. Therefore, organisms parasitized by viruses are not limited to animals and plants but also include

Nowadays, the focus of mycovirology research has expanded from plant pathogenic fungi and mycovirus mediated hypovirulence to include insect and human pathogenic fungi

Abstract Ecological interactions influence evolutionary dynamics by selecting upon fitness variation within species. Antagonistic interactions often promote genetic and species diversity, ants Mycoviruses as components of Ecological interactions influence evolutionary dynamics by selecting upon fitness variation within species.

For viruses with large and complex genomes, virulence may be conferred by accessory genes that act as virokines or viroceptors. A number of viruses from a wide variety of virus families, Abstract Summit disease, in which infected hosts seek heights (gravitropism), first noted in modern times by nineteenth-century naturalists, has been shown to be induced by

Fungal cellular organizations span from unicellular forms to complex, macroscopic multicellularity, with multiple transitions to higher or lower levels of cellular complexity occurring throughout the Moved PermanentlyThe document has moved here.

A more robust test of the adaptive significance of virus effects on plant phenotypes would be one that considers natural genetic variation in both the virus and the host plant, as

Host adaptation causes significant genetic changes in symbiotic microorganisms in insects; however, it is still unknown how virus mutations in symbiotic hosts affect host adaptability to
