Schrödinger’s Cheshire Cat: Are Haploid Emiliania huxleyi Cells Resistant to Viral Infection or Not?
Viruses, 2017 Emiliania huxleyi is the main calcite producer on Earth and is routinely infected by a virus (EhV); a double stranded DNA (dsDNA) virus belonging to the family Phycodnaviridae. E. huxleyi exhibits a haplodiploid life cycle; the calcified diploid stage is

Gene Gangs of the Chloroviruses: Conserved Clusters of Collinear Monocistronic Genes
Viruses, 2018 Chloroviruses (family Phycodnaviridae) are dsDNA viruses found throughout the world’s inland waters. The open reading frames in the genomes of 41 sequenced chloroviruses (330 ± 40 kbp each) representing three virus types were analyzed for evidence of ...

Seasonal Dynamics of Algae-Infecting Viruses and Their Inferred Interactions with Protists
Viruses, 2019 Viruses are a highly abundant, dynamic, and diverse component of planktonic communities that have key roles in marine ecosystems. We aimed to reveal the diversity and dynamics of marine large dsDNA viruses infecting algae in the Northern Skagerrak, South

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.This study identified DNA viruses from Qiangyong proglacial lake sediments on the Tibetan Plateau, revealing a highly diverse and previously uncharacterized viral community. These viruses influence microbial community structure and function by infecting key nutrient‐transforming taxa and encoding auxiliary metabolic genes that modulate host metabolism.

High‐throughput generic single‐entity sequencing using droplet microfluidics
iMeta, Volume 4, Issue 6, December 2025.We present Generic Single Entity Sequencing (GSE‐Seq), a droplet‐based workflow that generates monoclonal barcodes by one‐step PCR, performs dissolvable hydrogel‐enabled reactions for genome processing, and attaches barcodes during in‐droplet library preparation. Barcoded fragments are pooled and sequenced with PacBio long‐read sequencing. Barcodes are
