This study compares the replication of three Kolmioviridae viruses in vitro and in vivo, revealing differences in host range and replication efficiency.

This study investigates reptarenavirus co- and superinfection in cell cultures, finding no competition between closely related viruses but reduced replication of closely related segments in persistently infected cells.

This study shows that neuropilin-1 enhances SARS-CoV-2 infectivity and facilitates viral entry into the central nervous system via the olfactory pathway.

This study experimentally infects pythons and boas with reptarenavirus via different routes, finding infection without inclusion bodies and suggesting other factors contribute to BIBD pathogenesis.

The paper identifies novel reptarenaviruses, hartmaniviruses, and a chuvirus in Brazilian captive boas with Boid Inclusion Body Disease using metatranscriptomic analysis.

This study shows snake deltavirus can use various helper viruses or viral glycoproteins to generate infectious particles, expanding the known range of helper viruses beyond hepatitis B virus.

The paper identifies a novel deltavirus, sHDV, in Boa constrictor, showing it replicates independently of HBV and spreads via vertical and horizontal transmission.
