HzNV-2 is most closely related to the nudiviruses, a sister group of the insect baculoviruses. Several putative ORFs that share homology with the baculovirus core genes were identified in the viral genome. However, HzNV-2 lacks several key genetic features of baculoviruses including the late transcriptional regulation factor, LEF-1 and the palindromic hrs, which serve as origins of replication. The HzNV-2 genome was found to code for three ORFs that had significant sequence homology to cellular genes which are not generally found in viral genomes. These included a presumed juvenile hormone esterase gene, a gene coding for a putative zinc-dependent matrix metalloprotease, and a major facilitator superfamily protein gene; all of which are believed to play a role in the cellular proliferation and the tissue hypertrophy observed in the malformation of reproductive organs observed in HzNV-2 infected corn earworm moths, Helicoverpa zea.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22355451?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Burand, John P</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kim, Woojin</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Welch, Anna</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Elkinton, Joseph S</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Identification of a nucleopolyhedrovirus in winter moth populations from Massachusetts.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">J Invertebr Pathol</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">J.

We identified O. brumata nucleopolyhedrovirus (OpbuNPV) in winter moth larvae collected from field sites in Massachusetts by using PCR to amplify a 482 bp region of the baculovirus polyhedrin gene. Viral sequences were also detected in winter moth pupae that failed to emerge, suggesting that these insects may have died as a result of viral infection. This represents the first report of OpbuNPV in winter moth populations in the US.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21893065?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Garcia-Maruniak, Alejandra</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Abd-Alla, Adly M M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Salem, Tamer Z</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Parker, Andrew G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lietze, Verena-Ulrike</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">van Oers, Monique M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Maruniak, James E</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kim, Woojin</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Burand, John P</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cousserans, François</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Robinson, Alan S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vlak, Just M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bergoin, Max</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Boucias, Drion G</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Two viruses that cause salivary gland hypertrophy in Glossina pallidipes and Musca domestica are related and form a distinct phylogenetic clade.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">J Gen Virol</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">J.

They share general characteristics with the non-occluded insect nudiviruses, such as being insect-pathogenic, having enveloped, rod-shaped virions, and large circular double-stranded DNA genomes. MdSGHV measures 65x550 nm and contains a 124 279 bp genome (approximately 44 mol% G+C content) that codes for 108 putative open reading frames (ORFs). GpSGHV, measuring 50x1000 nm, contains a 190 032 bp genome (28 mol% G+C content) with 160 putative ORFs. Comparative genomic analysis demonstrates that 37 MdSGHV ORFs have homology to 42 GpSGHV ORFs, as some MdSGHV ORFs have homology to two different GpSGHV ORFs. Nine genes with known functions (dnapol, ts, pif-1, pif-2, pif-3, mmp, p74, odv-e66 and helicase-2), a homologue of the conserved baculovirus gene Ac81 and at least 13 virion proteins are present in both SGHVs. The amino acid identity ranged from 19 to 39 % among ORFs. An (A/T/G)TAAG motif, similar to the baculovirus late promoter motif, was enriched 100 bp upstream of the ORF transcription initiation sites of both viruses. Six and seven putative microRNA sequences were found in MdSGHV and GpSGHV genomes, respectively. There was genome. Collinearity between the two SGHVs, but not between the SGHVs and the nudiviruses. Phylogenetic analysis of conserved genes clustered both SGHVs in a single clade separated from the nudiviruses and baculoviruses. Although MdSGHV and GpSGHV are different viruses, their pathology, host range and genome composition indicate that they are related.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pt 2</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19141442?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Burand, John P</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tan, Weijia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kim, Woojin</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nojima, Satoshi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Roelofs, Wendell</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Infection with the insect virus Hz-2v alters mating behavior and pheromone production in female Helicoverpa zea moths.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">J Insect Sci</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">J.

In the absence of males, infected females exhibited calling behavior and called as often but for shorter periods on average than control females. As expected, control females mated with males for extend periods when they were present and did not call after mating, while virus-infected females made many frequent contacts with males and continued to call even after these contacts. Virus-infected females were found to produce five to seven times more pheromone than control females and attracted twice as many males as did control females in flight tunnel experiments. The ability of Hz-2V to alter the physiology and behavior of infected females observed here may serve to facilitate the transmission of virus in insect populations.</style></abstract><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16299596?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record></records></xml>
