Ubiquiter circovirus sequences raise challenges in laboratory diagnosis: The case of honey bee and bee mite, reptiles, and free living amoebae [PDF]
Circoviruses of pigs and birds are established pathogens, however, the exact role of other, recently described circoviruses and circovirus-like viruses remains to be elucidated.

Current Understanding of the Pathogenesis of Porcine Circovirus 3
Circoviruses are closed, circular, single-stranded DNA viruses belonging to the family Circoviridae and the genus Circovirus. To date, at least four porcine circoviruses (PCVs) have been recognized, including PCV1 to PCV4, respectively.

Drivers of Viral Diversity and Sharing in Marine Mammals
ABSTRACT Knowledge of viral infection in marine mammals, a group severely threatened by human activity, is largely limited to the pathology and epidemiology of few endemic viruses. The recent emergence in marine mammals of high‐consequence viruses, such as H5N1 avian influenza and rabies, underscores the importance of understanding the ecology of viral

First Molecular Detection of Torque Teno Canis Virus in Apparently Healthy Dogs in Southern Italy
•Torque teno canis virus has been detected in dogs from southern Italy. •Detection of TTCaV DNA was more frequent in dogs with an altered faecal score, mixed‐breed and belonging to kennels. ABSTRACT Background Torque teno viruses are viruses with unclear pathogenic potential, as conflicting evidence has classified this family of viruses as harmless and

Extension of the viral ecology in humans using viral profile hidden Markov models. [PDF]
When human samples are sequenced, many assembled contigs are "unknown", as conventional alignments find no similarity to known sequences. Hidden Markov models (HMM) exploit the positions of specific nucleotides in protein-encoding codons in various ...

Emerging Challenges and Advances in Porcine Circovirus: A Decade in Review
Over the past decade, porcine circoviruses (PCVs) have continued to pose a significant threat to global swine health, and pivotal discoveries have significantly reshaped our understanding of their biology and control. Extensive genomic surveillance has expanded porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2) genotyping from four to at least eight lineages, with PCV2d now ...

Discordant transmission of bacteria and viruses from mothers to babies at birth [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The earliest microbial colonizers of the human gut can have life-long consequences for their hosts. Precisely how the neonatal gut bacterial microbiome and virome are initially populated is not well understood.
