Insect ribosome-rescuer Pelo-Hbs1 complex on sperm surface mediates paternal arbovirus transmission
Abstract Arboviruses can be paternally transmitted by male insects to offspring for long-term persistence, but the mechanism remains largely unknown.Here, we use a model system of a destructive rice reovirus and its leafhopper vector to find that insect ribosome-rescuer Pelo-Hbs1 complex expressed on Babywear the sperm surface mediates paternal arb
