A new species of nucleo-cytoplasmic large DNA virus (NCLDV) associated with mortalities in Manitoba lake sturgeon Acipenser fulvescens [PDF]

Diseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2013
A newly discovered virus, Namao virus, associated with morbidity and mortality, was detected among juvenile lake sturgeon Acipenser fulvescens being propagated by a conservation stocking program for this endangered species in Manitoba, Canada. The outbreaks resulted in cumulative mortalities of 62 to 99.6% among progeny of wild Winnipeg River or Nelson

Metatranscriptomics reveals a shift in microbial community composition and function during summer months in a coastal marine environment

Environmental DNA, Volume 5, Issue 5, Page 920-933, September 2023., 2023
The composition and microbial activity of marine water is expected to vary with seasons and abiotic variables. To characterize both the microbial compositional and functional changes associated with abiotic factors such as pH, temperature, alkalinity, aragonite, calcite and pCO2, here we generate a reference metatranscriptome from the Strait of Georgia,

Tracing the Origin of Genotype II African Swine Fever Virus in China by Genomic Epidemiology Analysis

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
The pandemic spread of African swine fever (ASF) has caused serious effects on the global pig industry. Virus genome sequencing and genomic epidemiology analysis play an important role in tracking the outbreaks of the disease and tracing the transmission of the virus.

Bacteriophages pass through candle‐shaped porous ceramic filters: Application for the collection of viruses in soil water

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 11, Issue 5, October 2022., 2022
This study proposes to use porous candles as a new tool for collecting soil water viruses. In the first step, the passage of model viruses through the ceramic part of the candles was investigated. Regarding the field application, the experiments carried out showed a successful recovery of viruses, demonstrating the relevance and efficiency of such a ...

A comparative study of flow cytometry‐sorted communities and shotgun viral metagenomics in a Singapore municipal wastewater treatment plant

iMeta, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2022., 2022
This study elucidates the practical protocol of applying fluorescence‐activated cell sorting (FACS) and metagenomics on DNA and RNA viromes. This is the first systematic analysis of viral metagenomics in a municipal wastewater treatment plant with the Modified Ludzack–Ettinger (MLE) process.

Adaptive evolution of viruses infecting marine microalgae (haptophytes), from acute infections to stable coexistence

Biological Reviews, Volume 97, Issue 1, Page 179-194, February 2022., 2022
ABSTRACT Collectively known as phytoplankton, photosynthetic microbes form the base of the marine food web, and account for up to half of the primary production on Earth. Haptophytes are key components of this phytoplankton community, playing important roles both as primary producers and as mixotrophs that graze on bacteria and protists.

Viral suppressor of RNA silencing in vascular plants also interferes with the development of the bryophyte Physcomitrella patens

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 45, Issue 1, Page 220-235, January 2022., 2022
Abstract Plant viruses are important pathogens able to overcome plant defense mechanisms using their viral suppressors of RNA silencing (VSR). Small RNA pathways of bryophytes and vascular plants have significant similarities, but little is known about how viruses interact with mosses. This study elucidated the responses of Physcomitrella patens to two

Hidden evolutionary complexity of Nucleo-Cytoplasmic Large DNA viruses of eukaryotes

Virology Journal, 2012
Background The Nucleo-Cytoplasmic Large DNA Viruses (NCLDV) constitute an apparently monophyletic group that consists of at least 6 families of viruses infecting a broad variety of eukaryotic hosts.

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

A vertically transmitted amalgavirus is present in certain accessions of the bryophyte Physcomitrium patens

The Plant Journal, Volume 108, Issue 6, Page 1786-1797, December 2021., 2021
Summary In the last few years, next‐generation sequencing techniques have started to be used to identify new viruses infecting plants. This has allowed to rapidly increase our knowledge on viruses other than those causing symptoms in economically important crops. Here we used this approach to identify a virus infecting Physcomitrium patens that has the
