Mapping the transcriptional landscape of algal resistance to viral infection reveals a core expression program

New Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 3, Page 1368-1384, November 2025.
Summary Algal blooms and their demise by viruses drive global‐scale ecological processes in the ocean. These blooms form the foundation of marine food webs, regulate microbial communities, and shape biogeochemical cycles. Although algal populations are constantly infected by viruses, resistant subpopulations frequently emerge after the infection.

Diverse Trajectories Drive the Expression of a Giant Virus in the Oomycete Plant Pathogen Phytophthora parasitica

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Giant viruses of amoebas, recently classified in the class Megaviricetes, are a group of viruses that can infect major eukaryotic lineages. We previously identified a set of giant virus sequences in the genome of Phytophthora parasitica, an oomycete and ...

SKP1‐CUL1‐F‐box: Key molecular targets affecting disease progression

The FASEB Journal, Volume 39, Issue 2, 31 January 2025.
SCF complexes are widely involved in intracellular metabolism. In this paper, we discuss the diverse effects of SCF on crucial cellular processes such as cell cycle progression, cell migration, biological rhythms, DNA replication, cell differentiation, cell, apoptosis, immune response, and disease occurrence.

Insights Into Phylogeny, Diversity and Functional Potential of Poseidoniales Viruses

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 1, January 2025.
Our spatio‐temporal metagenomic study of a subtropical estuary successfully identified viruses and their potential hosts. Viral contigs were detected using a consensus approach comprising geNOMAD and VirSorter2. Through virus‐host predictions, we were able to identify, characterise and propose magroviruses and non‐magroviruses associated with ...

Mitigation Strategies for African Swine Fever Virus Biosecurity: From Virus Inactivation to Pig Health

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
The African swine fever virus (ASFV) is a major global threat affecting pork production and strengthening biosecurity practices is an urgent priority, especially given the paucity of effective vaccines and antiviral drugs. Mitigation strategies focused on virus inactivation play an important role in controlling ASFV and there is growing recognition ...

Influence of climate on soil viral communities in Australia on a regional scale

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 3, Issue 4, October 2024.
Abstract Viruses play a crucial role in regulating microbial communities and ecosystem functioning. However, the biogeographic patterns of viruses and their responses to climate factors remain underexplored. In this study, we performed viral size fraction metagenomes on 108 samples collected along a 2600 km transect across Australia, encompassing ...

Identification of hepatotropic viruses from plasma using deep sequencing: a next generation diagnostic tool.

PLoS ONE, 2013
We conducted an unbiased metagenomics survey using plasma from patients with chronic hepatitis B, chronic hepatitis C, autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), and patients without liver disease (control).

Viral communities in millipede guts: Insights into the diversity and potential role in modulating the microbiome

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 26, Issue 2, February 2024.
Relative abundance of the metagenome‐assembled viral genomes (bottom arch) identified in the hindgut metagenomes and metatranscriptomes of Epibolus pulchripes and Glomeris connexa. The top arch shows the coverage of each viral phylum mapped to the identified metagenome‐assembled viral genomes in transcripts per million.
