The insecticidal potency of a nucleopolyhedrovirus population (SfNIC) that infects Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera) is greater than the potency of any of the component genotypes alone. Occlusion bodies (OBs) produced ...

Expression of a peroral infection factor determines pathogenicity and population structure in an insect virus

Simón de Goñi, Oihane; Williams, Trevor; Cerutti, Martine; Caballero Murillo, Primitivo; López Ferber, Miguel (Public Library of Science, 2013) info:eu-repo/semantics/article,

A Nicaraguan isolate of Spodoptera frugiperda multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus is being studied as a possible biological insecticide. This virus exists as a mixture of complete and deletion genotypes; the latter depend on ...
