Synthetic recovery of Yada Yada virus expands insect-specific alphavirus knowledge and facilitates production of chimeric viruses

Abstract Few insect-specific alphaviruses (ISA) have been discovered, with even fewer culturable to facilitate full characterisation. Here, we report the recovery of an infectious clone of Yada Yada virus (YYV)—a virus previously only detected by metagenomic sequencing of mosquito homogenates. Using...
