A usurper is an illegitimate or controversial claimant to power, often but not always in a monarchy. This may include a person who succeeds in establishing himself as a monarch without inheriting the throne or any other person exercising authority unconstitutionally. It may also be applied to an official acting ultra vires, outside his authority or jurisdiction.
Some historical people considered usurpers are
- Pope Leo IX
- Henry IV of England
- Catherine II of Russia
- Miguel of Portugal
- Habibullah Ghazi of Afghanistan.
- Napoleon I.

To counteract host defense, plant viruses encode viral suppressors of RNA silencing (VSRs) that target different effector molecules in the RNA silencing pathway. Evidence has shown that plants also encode endogenous suppressors of RNA s
