Indentifying and modeling the distribution of cryptic reservoirs of Ebola virus using artificial intelligence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Fruit bats (Megachiroptera) have been found to be the principal reservoirs  of Ebola virus (EBOV) to humans. However, bats do not appear to be the primary reservoir in the environment and between outbreaks.

Guarani Virophage, a New Sputnik-Like Isolate From a Brazilian Lake [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Virophages are critical regulators of viral population dynamics and potential actors in the stability of the microbial networks. These small biological entities predate the replicative cycle of giant viruses, such as the members of the Mimiviridae family

Acanthamoeba polyphaga mimivirus and other giant viruses: an open field to outstanding discoveries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In 2003, Acanthamoeba polyphaga mimivirus (APMV) was first described and began to impact researchers around the world, due to its structural and genetic complexity. This virus founded the family Mimiviridae.

A Microbiomic Approach to the Characterization of the Impacts and Influences of Viral, Bacterial, and Harmful Algal Bloom Toxins on the Bottlenose Dolphin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
As apex predators that display high site fidelity Tursiops truncatus (bottlenose dolphin) are indicators of marine ecosystem health. Bottlenose dolphins, additionally, display pathogenesis and immune response similar to that of humans. Humans and coastal

Replication strategies of newly discovered giant viruses of amoebas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Giant viruses are a group of viruses with genome composed of double-stranded DNA molecule. They are characterized by the creation of giant viral particles, the size of which varies between 150-1500 nm. Also, their genomes are huge reaching sizes of up to
