A heritable antiviral RNAi response limits Orsay virus infection in Caenorhabditis elegans N2.

Orsay virus (OrV) is the first virus known to be able to complete a full infection cycle in the model nematode species Caenorhabditis elegans. OrV is transmitted horizontally and its infection is limited by antiviral RNA interference (RNAi). However, we have no insight into the kinetics of OrV repli...
