Genotypic variation among wild isolates of Heliothis spp nuclear polyhedrosis viruses from different geographical regions.
TL;DR: Ten nuclear polyhedrosis viruses infecting insect hosts in the genus Heliothis and isolated in different geographical regions of the world were characterized using restriction endonuclease analysis, resulting in fragmentation profiles which separated the wild-type isolates into two major genotypes, corresponding with the morphology of the virion.

Biochemical and biological characterization of four isolates of Spodoptera exigua nuclear polyhedrosis virus
TL;DR: Restriction endonuclease analysis of the viral genomes revealed limited restriction fragment length polymorphism and indicated that these viruses contained distinct, but closely related, genotypes (variants).

Characteristically distinct isolates of the nuclear polyhedrosis virus from Spodoptera litura.
TL;DR: More than 100 isolates were plaque-purified to examine the genetic variations in four wild stocks of Spodoptera litura nuclear polyhedrosis virus collected in Japan, and the advantage of having a mixture of different NPV groups in the same wild virus stocks was discussed.

Insect viruses as control agents
TL;DR: Improvements in virus production, formulation and a better understanding of virus epizootiology should lead to an increasing role for this group of insect pathogens in biological control.

DNA restriction polymorphism in wild isolates of Spodoptera frugiperda nuclear polyhedrosis virus.
TL;DR: Nucleotide sequence divergence values indicated that genetic variation among isolates foreign to Louisiana (Ohio, Ecuador, Mexico, Georgia, Colombia, and Venezuela) was greater than that among the Louisiana isolates, however, certain foreign isolates were similar to or identical with Louisiana isolate.

Characterization of the nuclear polyhedrosis virus DNA of Adoxophyes orana and of Barathra brassicae.
TL;DR: Circular double-stranded DNA was isolated from nuclear polyhedrosis virus (NPV) of Adoxophyes orana and Barathra brassicae and showed that both genomes do not contain repetitive sequences.

Recherches sur la spécificité de trois virus a polyèdres nucléaires vis-a-vis deMamestra brassicae, scotia segetum, trichoplusia ni etSpodoptera exigua
TL;DR: By surface spray on artificial food medium the comparative activity of three nuclear polyedrosis viruses, using formulations prepared in an identical way, has been studied on newly hatched larvae of four noctuid species to emphasize the importance in microbial control of quantitative approaches when studying host ranges in insect viruses.
