RNA interference-based antiviral immune response against the salivary gland hypertrophy virus in Glossina pallidipes

Abstract Background Glossina pallidipes salivary gland hypertrophy virus (GpSGHV; Hytrosaviridae) is a non-occluded dsDNA virus that specifically infects the adult stages of the hematophagous tsetse flies (Glossina species, Diptera: Glossinidae).
