American chestnut
The American chestnut (Castanea dentata) is a large, fast-growing deciduous tree of the beech family native to eastern North America.
See Hypovirus and American chestnut
Anastomosis
An anastomosis (anastomoses) is a connection or opening between two things (especially cavities or passages) that are normally diverging or branching, such as between blood vessels, leaf veins, or streams.
Blight
Blight is a specific symptom affecting plants in response to infection by a pathogenic organism.
Chestnut
The chestnuts are the deciduous trees and shrubs in the genus Castanea, in the beech family Fagaceae.
Chestnut blight
The pathogenic fungus Cryphonectria parasitica (formerly Endothia parasitica) is a member of the Ascomycota (sac fungi).
See Hypovirus and Chestnut blight
Cytoplasm
In cell biology, the cytoplasm describes all material within a eukaryotic cell, enclosed by the cell membrane, except for the cell nucleus.
Double-stranded RNA viruses
Double-stranded RNA viruses (dsRNA viruses) are a polyphyletic group of viruses that have double-stranded genomes made of ribonucleic acid.
See Hypovirus and Double-stranded RNA viruses
Fungus
A fungus (fungi or funguses) is any member of the group of eukaryotic organisms that includes microorganisms such as yeasts and molds, as well as the more familiar mushrooms.
Helicase
Helicases are a class of enzymes thought to be vital to all organisms.
Hyperparasite
A hyperparasite, also known as a metaparasite, is a parasite whose host, often an insect, is also a parasite, often specifically a parasitoid.
See Hypovirus and Hyperparasite
Hypha
A hypha (hyphae) is a long, branching, filamentous structure of a fungus, oomycete, or actinobacterium.
International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses
The International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) authorizes and organizes the taxonomic classification of and the nomenclature for viruses.
See Hypovirus and International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses
MEROPS
MEROPS is an online database for peptidases (also known as proteases, proteinases and proteolytic enzymes) and their inhibitors.
N-terminus
The N-terminus (also known as the amino-terminus, NH2-terminus, N-terminal end or amine-terminus) is the start of a protein or polypeptide, referring to the free amine group (-NH2) located at the end of a polypeptide.
Open reading frame
In molecular biology, reading frames are defined as spans of DNA sequence between the start and stop codons.
See Hypovirus and Open reading frame
Papain
Papain, also known as papaya proteinase I, is a cysteine protease enzyme present in papaya (Carica papaya) and mountain papaya (Vasconcellea cundinamarcensis).
Protease
A protease (also called a peptidase, proteinase, or proteolytic enzyme) is an enzyme that catalyzes proteolysis, breaking down proteins into smaller polypeptides or single amino acids, and spurring the formation of new protein products.
RNA-dependent RNA polymerase
RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) or RNA replicase is an enzyme that catalyzes the replication of RNA from an RNA template.
See Hypovirus and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase
Virulence
Virulence is a pathogen's or microorganism's ability to cause damage to a host.
Virus
A virus is a submicroscopic infectious agent that replicates only inside the living cells of an organism.
