A Viral Double-Stranded RNA Up Regulates the Fungal Virulence of Nectria radicicola
Double-stranded RNAs (dsRNAs) are widespread in plant pathogenic fungi, but their functions in fungal hosts remain mostly unclear, with a few exceptions. We analyzed dsRNAs from Nectria radicicola, the causal fungus of ginseng root rot. Four distinct sizes of dsRNAs, 6.0, 5.0, 2.5, and 1.5 kbp, were...
