Viral metagenomic analysis of fecal samples from <i>Bos grunniens</i> on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau reveals novel picornaviruses and diverse CRESS-DNA viruses. [PDF]
Front Cell Infect MicrobiolIntroductionThe Qinghai–Tibet Plateau (QTP), one of the most extreme environments on Earth, provides a unique natural setting for exploring viral diversity and evolution under conditions of high altitude, hypoxia, and intense ultraviolet radiation.

Exploring the recombinant evolution and hosts of crucivirus based on novel oyster-associated viruses. [PDF]
Front Microbiol“Crucivirus” represents a group of viruses with chimeric genomes, significant for viral evolution and recombination studies. Their capsid proteins share homology with the RNA virus tombusvirus, while their replicase-associated proteins are homologous to ...

Novel Single-Stranded DNA Virus Genomes Recovered from Chimpanzee Feces Sampled from the Mambilla Plateau in Nigeria [PDF]
, 2017 Metagenomic approaches are rapidly expanding our knowledge of the diversity of viruses. In the fecal matter of Nigerian chimpanzees we recovered three gokushovirus genomes, one circular replication-associated protein encoding single-stranded DNA virus ...

Strand-Specific Patterns of Codon Usage Bias Across Cressdnaviricota
Frontiers in Virology, 2022 The rapidly expanding phylum Cressdnaviricota contains circular, Rep-encoding single-stranded (CRESS) DNA viruses that are organized within seven established families, but many CRESS DNA virus sequences are not taxonomically defined. We hypothesized that
