Genes of viral origin in the Fopius arisanus genome

Published by Agricultural Research Service | Department of Agriculture | Metadata Last Checked: January 27, 2026 | Last Modified: 2024-02-08
Fopius arisanus (Sonan) is a braconid wasp (subfamily Opiinae) and biological control agent of a broad range of tephritid fruit fly species, including the global pests Mediterranean fruit fly Ceratitis capitata and the Oriental fruit fly Bactrocera dorsalis. In an effort to create foundational genomic resources for this species, the complete genome and transcriptomes for several wasp life stages have been recently generated. Manual annotation of 55 viral genes and phylogenetic analysis revealed that F. arisanus has independently acquired a symbiotic virus related to alpha-nudiviruses. Resources in this dataset:Resource Title: FARI_manual_annotations_1-19-2018_gburke. File Name: FARI_manual_annotations_1-19-2018_gburke.tar.gzResource Description: This set of data contains three fasta files (coding sequences, peptide sequences, and transcript sequences) from genes of viral origin annotated in the F. arisanus genome. A single gff3 file contains the annotations in tab delimited format.
