Morphological and Taxonomic Properties of Tokyovirus, the First Marseilleviridae Member Isolated from Japan.

open access: yesMicrobes and environments, 2016
Members of the Marseilleviridae family are large DNA viruses with icosahedral particle structures that infect Acanthamoeba cells. The first Marseillevirus to be discovered was isolated in 2009. Since then, several other members of the Marseilleviridae family have been reported, including Lausannevirus, Senegalvirus, Cannes 8 virus, Insectomime virus ...

Pithovirus sibericum, a new bona fide member of the Fourth TRUC club

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Nucleocytoplasmic large DNA viruses, or representatives of the proposed order Megavirales, include giant viruses of Acanthamoeba that were discovered over the last 12 years and are bona fide microbes.

Virus communities are associated with the degradation of recalcitrant carbon during the corpse decay of plateau pika (Ochoton curzoniae)

open access: yesGrassland Research, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 281-293, September 2025.
Abstract Background It has been reported that bacteria and fungi play a vital role in soil biogeochemical cycles during the decomposition of animal corpses. However, it is poorly understood how the viral composition and function of grassland soil change during the decay of wild mammal corpses.

Covering the bases: Population genomic structure of Lemna minor and the cryptic species L. japonica in Switzerland

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2024.
We investigated the genetic diversity and population structure of the common duckweed Lemna minor. Through whole‐genome sequencing of 23 natural populations in Switzerland, we identified two genetic clusters, including a cryptic species, L. japonica. While L. minor showed a well‐defined population structure, L.

Complete Genome Sequence of a New Member of the Marseilleviridae Recovered from the Brackish Submarine Spring in the Cassis Port-Miou Calanque, France

open access: yesGenome Announcements, 2015
ABSTRACT Marseilleviridae is a rapidly expanding family of Acanthamoeba -infecting large DNA viruses distributed worldwide. We report here the complete 349-kbp genome sequence of Port-Miou virus, which is surprisingly close to that of Lausannevirus (isolated from the Seine River upstream from ...

Eukaryotic core histone diversification in light of the histone doublet and DNA topo II genes of Marseilleviridae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Abstract While eukaryotic and archaean genomes encode the histone fold domain, only eukaryotes encode the core histones H2A, H2B, H3, and H4. Core histones assemble into a hetero-octamer rather than the homo-tetramer of Archaea. Thus it was unexpected that core histone “doublets” were identified in the cytoplasmic replication factories ...
