Mycovirus prevalence is linked to increased virulence benefits in the fungal entomopathogen Beauveria bassiana.
Numerous studies have reported the occurrence of mycoviruses in fungal strains of medical-veterinary, phytopathological, and entomological relevance, with an expanding literature on their phenotypic effects. However, their prevalence within fungal populations remains poorly understood. If mycoviral infections were to c...
