Systematic profiling of nudivirus-like genes reveals conserved and differentiated roles in a domesticated endogenous virus
This work functionally characterized 24 key genes involved in DNA replication, transcriptional regulation, capsid formation, envelope formation, and viral infectivity in C. vestalis bracovirus and provides a molecular framework for understanding CvBV assembly and serves as a valuable resource for investigating bracovir...
