Novel Single-Stranded DNA Virus Genomes Recovered from Chimpanzee Feces Sampled from the Mambilla Plateau in Nigeria [PDF]
Genome Announcements, 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 ...

Highly divergent CRESS DNA and picorna-like viruses associated with bleached thalli of the green seaweed Ulva [PDF]
Microbiology spectrum, 2023 Marine macroalgae (seaweeds) are important primary producers and foundation species in coastal ecosystems around the world. Seaweeds currently contribute to an estimated 51% of the global mariculture production, with a long-term growth rate of 6% per ...

Metagenomic Identification of a Novel Zoonotic Gemykibivirus in a Diarrheic Pig in China. [PDF]
Transbound Emerg DisGemykibiviruses are circular, replication‐associated protein (REP) encoding single‐stranded DNA (ssDNA) viruses classified within the genus Gemykibivirus of the family Genomoviridae. In recent years, several gemykibiviruses have been detected in humans presenting with clinical symptoms, such as encephalitis, respiratory illness, sepsis, pericarditis ...

Occurrence of diverse circoviruses in wild birds in Hungary [PDF]
Veterinary ResearchCircoviruses (CVs) infect a wide range of avian hosts, including domestic, ornamental and wild birds. The immunosuppressive effect of these viruses could make the host more susceptible to other pathogens.

Genomic Diversity of CRESS DNA Viruses in the Eukaryotic Virome of Swine Feces
Microorganisms, 2021 Replication-associated protein (Rep)-encoding single-stranded DNA (CRESS DNA) viruses are a diverse group of viruses, and their persistence in the environment has been studied for over a decade.
