At the final stretch of 2023, our latest publication came out: an experimental virus evolution study in fruit flies:
Parallel evolution and enhanced virulence upon in vivo passage of an RNA virus in Drosophila melanogaster academic.oup.com/ve/article/….

We investigated whether absence or presence of RNAi affected RNA virus evolution. We find slightly more polymorphisms in the absence of RNAi, but a much stronger effect was the parallel evolution of capsid mutations leading to enhanced virulence.

First authors Jurgen Moonen, Michelle Schinkel, en Tom van der Most painstakingly dug through 175 papers to define the most abundant insect specific viruses in Culex, Anopheles, Aedes mosquitoes and their distribution.

The paper includes a searchable database. We hope this will be a useful resource for anyone interested in mosquito-associated viruses. Thanks to editors @BarryRockx @ReinaSikkema @MarionKoopmans en Maarten Schrama for editing the special issue.
