Abstract

This article reviewed the species of mycovirus infecting Botrytis spp. and their effects on the host fungi. In addition, the morphology and genomic structure of five species of Botrytis viruses were described. Based on the current research situation of Botrytis mycoviruses, the direction for the further research were proposed, which provides reference for the study of Botrytis mycoviruses and using mycoviruses for biocontrol.

Key words: Botrytis spp.; mycovirus; dsRNA
