Decoding Huge Phage Diversity: A Taxonomic Classification of Lak Megaphages [PDF]

High-throughput sequencing for uncultivated viruses has accelerated the understanding of global viral diversity and uncovered viral genomes substantially larger than any that have so far been cultured.

Marseilleviruses: An Update in 2021

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
The family Marseilleviridae was the second family of giant viruses that was described in 2013, after the family Mimiviridae. Marseillevirus marseillevirus, isolated in 2007 by coculture on Acanthamoeba polyphaga, is the prototype member of this family ...

Virus viability in spiked swine bone marrow tissue during above‐ground burial method and under in vitro conditions

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 69, Issue 5, Page 2987-2995, September 2022., 2022
Abstract The emergence of high consequence animal diseases usually requires managing significant mortality. A desirable aspect of any carcass management method is the ability to contain and inactivate the target pathogen. The above‐ground burial (AGB) technique was recently developed and proposed as an alternative carcass management method.

The common ancestor of archaea and eukarya was not an archaeon. [PDF]

Archaea, 2013
It is often assumed that eukarya originated from archaea. This view has been recently supported by phylogenetic analyses in which eukarya are nested within archaea. Here, I argue that these analyses are not reliable, and I critically discuss archaeal ancestor scenarios, as well as fusion scenarios for the origin of eukaryotes.

Comparative Genomics and Environmental Distribution of Large dsDNA Viruses in the Family Asfarviridae

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
The family Asfarviridae is a group of nucleo-cytoplasmic large DNA viruses (NCLDVs) of which African swine fever virus (ASFV) is well-characterized. Recently the discovery of several Asfarviridae members other than ASFV has suggested that this family ...

Reclassification of Giant Viruses Composing a Fourth Domain of Life in the New Order <b><i>Megavirales</i></b> [PDF]

Intervirology, 2012
Interest in giant viruses has risen sharply since 2003, following the discovery of the Mimivirus and four other protist-infecting giant viruses that are linked to the nucleocytoplasmic large DNA viruses (NCLDVs). Despite considerable heterogeneity in hosts and genome sizes, the NCLDVs have been shown to be monophyletic based on analyses of their ...

Exploring nucleo-cytoplasmic large DNA viruses in Tara Oceans microbial metagenomes [PDF]

, 2013
Nucleo-cytoplasmic large DNA viruses (NCLDVs) constitute a group of eukaryotic viruses that can have crucial ecological roles in the sea by accelerating the turnover of their unicellular hosts or by causing diseases in animals. To better characterize the
