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

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

The Transmissibility of the Human Skin Virome: Potential Forensic Implications

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 6, December 2025.
To robustly establish the forensic potential of the human skin virome, continuous research and investigation across diverse ethnic groups are necessary. This study evaluated the stability and transmissibility of the skin virome in Koreans. Our results show that the skin virome is stable over time and can be shared through contact with objects ...

Variations of the Virome in Raw and Treated Water: A One‐Year Follow‐Up at Six Different Drinking Water Treatment Plants

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 6, December 2025.
This paper describes monitoring of outgoing water from drinking water treatment plants, geographically spread over half of Sweden and sampled every other month for 1 year. We found differences in the virome from the different water sources from each plant as well as differences in virus size and seasonal variation, where we also could detect viruses in

Chloroviruses

Viruses, 2019
Chloroviruses are large dsDNA, plaque-forming viruses that infect certain chlorella-like green algae; the algae are normally mutualistic endosymbionts of protists and metazoans and are often referred to as zoochlorellae.

Exploring Viral Diversity in a Unique South African Soil Habitat [PDF]

, 2018
The Kogelberg Biosphere Reserve in the Cape Floral Kingdom in South Africa is known for its unique plant biodiversity. The potential presence of unique microbial and viral biodiversity associated with this unique plant biodiversity led us to explore the ...

Variation in the Genetic Repertoire of Viruses Infecting Micromonas pusilla Reflects Horizontal Gene Transfer and Links to Their Environmental Distribution

Viruses, 2017
Prasinophytes, a group of eukaryotic phytoplankton, has a global distribution and is infected by large double-stranded DNA viruses (prasinoviruses) in the family Phycodnaviridae.

Commensal Viruses Promote Intestinal Stem Cell Regeneration Following Radiation Damage by Inhibiting Hyperactivation of RIG‐I and Notch Signals

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 37, October 6, 2025.
Ionizing radiation disrupts gut virome and bacteriome. Gut commensal viruses protect against intestinal damage and promote stem cell regeneration by inhibiting hyperactivation of RIG‐I and Notch signaling in stem cells. Fecal virome transplantation (FVT) from healthy donors can serve as a potential therapeutic intervention by enriching phages targeting

Virus communities are associated with the degradation of recalcitrant carbon during the corpse decay of plateau pika (Ochoton curzoniae)

Grassland Research, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 281-293, September 2025.
Abstract Background It has been reported that bacteria and fungi play a vital role in soil biogeochemical cycles during the decomposition of animal corpses. However, it is poorly understood how the viral composition and function of grassland soil change during the decay of wild mammal corpses.

Exposure to Mimivirus collagen promotes arthritis [PDF]

, 2014
Collagens, the most abundant proteins in animals, also occur in some recently described nucleocytoplasmic large DNA viruses such as Mimiviridae, which replicate in amoebae.
