PLoS Pathogens: Polydnaviruses as Symbionts and Gene Delivery Systems - 5 views

  •  
    This paper describes the fascinating replication cycle of brachoviruses, which integrate their genomes (or portions of their genomes) into both wasp and caterpillar hosts, to benefit the parasitic wasp. In this role, these viruses function as endosymbionts, challenging the traditional view of all viruses as parasites.

    Please read this paper for the course. I don't plan to discuss it much more in the course, but there may be questions on this story on your exam.
