昆虫痘病毒（EPV）纺锤体（缺乏病毒体的包涵体）的生物学功能尚未阐明。我们的特点的功能，EPV纺锤体的铜金龟子，异常铜金龟子（鞘翅目：金龟子科）。经口给药铜斑蛇EPV的球状体或球状体与纺锤体的混合体。铜铝合金在球状体中加入纺锤体可显著提高感染力，这强烈表明纺锤体在宿主昆虫的感染中起重要作用。
The biological function of entomopoxvirus (EPV) spindles (inclusion bodies that lack virions), has not been elucidated. We characterized the function of EPV spindles in the cupreous chafer,Anomala cuprea(Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae). Spheroids or spheroids mixed with spindles ofAnomala cupreaEPV were administeredper osto theA. cuprealarvae. A significant increase in infectivity was induced by the addition of spindles to the spheroids, strongly suggesting that the spindles play an important role in the infection of the host insect.
