Burke G, Sharanowski B
Curr Biol . 2024 May; 34(10):R483-R488. PMID: 38772331
Parasitoids - insects that parasitize other insects - have fascinating biologies that have made them darlings of the science fiction genre, owing to their wide array of innovative and often...

Lorenzi A, Legeai F, Jouan V, Girard P, Strand M, Ravallec M, et al.
PLoS Pathog . 2024 Apr; 20(4):e1011980. PMID: 38662774
Thousands of endoparasitoid wasp species in the families Braconidae and Ichneumonidae harbor "domesticated endogenous viruses" (DEVs) in their genomes. This study focuses on ichneumonid DEVs, named ichnoviruses (IVs). Large quantities...

Lorenzi A, Arvin M, Burke G, Strand M
J Virol . 2023 Oct; 97(11):e0081723. PMID: 37877717
Understanding how bracoviruses (BVs) function in wasps is of broad interest in the study of virus evolution. This study characterizes most of the bracovirus (MdBV) genes whose products are nucleocapsid...

Dial D, Weglarz K, Brunet B, Havill N, von Dohlen C, Burke G
G3 (Bethesda) . 2023 Sep; 14(1). PMID: 37766465
The adelgids (Adelgidae) are a small family of sap-feeding insects, which, together with true aphids (Aphididae) and phylloxerans (Phylloxeridae), make up the infraorder Aphidomorpha. Some adelgid species are highly destructive...

Mao M, Simmonds T, Stouthamer C, Kehoe T, Geib S, Burke G
G3 (Bethesda) . 2023 Jun; 13(10). PMID: 37345948
The parasitoid wasp Venturia canescens is an important biological control agent of stored products moth pests and serves as a model to study the function and evolution of domesticated endogenous...

Coffman K, Hankinson Q, Burke G
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2022 Apr; 119(16):e2120048119. PMID: 35412888
Heritable symbionts display a wide variety of transmission strategies to travel from one insect generation to the next. Parasitoid wasps, one of the most diverse insect groups, maintain several heritable...

Mao M, Strand M, Burke G
J Virol . 2022 Jan; 96(5):e0157321. PMID: 34985997
Bracoviruses (BVs) are endogenized nudiviruses in parasitoid wasps of the microgastroid complex (family Braconidae). Microgastroid wasps have coopted nudivirus genes to produce replication-defective virions that females use to transfer virulence...

Drezen J, Bezier A, Burke G, Strand M
Curr Opin Insect Sci . 2021 Dec; 49:93-100. PMID: 34954138
Animal genomes commonly contain genes or sequences that have been acquired from different types of viruses. The vast majority of these endogenous virus elements (EVEs) are inactive or consist of...

Lorenzi A, Strand M, Burke G, Volkoff A
Curr Opin Insect Sci . 2021 Nov; 49:63-70. PMID: 34839031
Bracoviruses (BVs) and ichnoviruses (IVs) evolved from different endogenized viruses but through convergence have been coopted by parasitoids in the families Braconidae and Ichneumonidae for similar functions in parasitizing hosts....

Dial D, Weglarz K, Aremu A, Havill N, Pearson T, Burke G, et al.
ISME J . 2021 Sep; 16(3):642-654. PMID: 34508228
Many plant-sap-feeding insects have maintained a single, obligate, nutritional symbiont over the long history of their lineage. This senior symbiont may be joined by one or more junior symbionts that...
