Discovery of novel dsRNA viral sequences by in silico cloning and implications for viral diversity, host range and evolution [PDF]
Genome sequence of viruses can contribute greatly to the study of viral evolution, diversity and the interaction between viruses and hosts. Traditional molecular cloning methods for obtaining RNA viral genomes are time-consuming and often difficult ...

RNA-Seq reveals virus–virus and virus–plant interactions in nature [PDF]
As research on plant viruses has focused mainly on crop diseases, little is known about these viruses in natural environments. To understand the ecology of viruses in natural systems, comprehensive information on virus–virus and virus–host interactions ...
