Experimental evolution of an RNA virus in Caenorhabditis elegans

This study evolves two Orsay virus strains in C. elegans, finding slight infectivity changes, non-synonymous mutations, and non-random distribution of minor variants in polymorphic regions.

Accumulation dynamics of defective genomes during experimental evolution of two betacoronaviruses

This study tracks defective viral genome (DVG) dynamics in two betacoronaviruses under different MOI conditions, showing increased diversity and abundance with specific deletion patterns.

Phenotypic and genomic changes during Turnip mosaic virus adaptation to Arabidopsis thaliana mutants lacking epigenetic regulatory factors

This study shows RNA viruses adapt to epigenetic plant defenses by increasing infectivity, virulence, and viral load, with adaptation primarily targeting the VPg protein.
