  "summary": "Bombyx mori latent virus (BmLV) is a persistent RNA virus frequently detected in silkworm-derived cell lines and has been reported to interact with B. mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV). However, whether previous BmLV exposure alters subsequent BmNPV infection in silkworm larvae remains unclear. Here, we examined how BmLV exposure history affects subsequent BmNPV infection in cultured cells and…",
