A Comparison of the Vertical Transmission of High- and Low-Virulence Nucleopolyhedrovirus Strains in <i>Lymantria Dispar</i> L.

Baculoviruses can persist in insect host organisms after infection and may be vertically transmitted to the next generation, in which they may be reactivated. The goal of the present study was to compare the efficiency of the vertical transmission of high- and low-virulence strains and the subsequen...
