Biodiversity and distribution of polar freshwater DNA viruses [PDF]

, 2015
Viruses constitute the most abundant biological entities and a large reservoir of genetic diversity on Earth. Despite the recent surge in their study, our knowledge on their actual biodiversity and distribution remains sparse.

RNA-Sequencing-Based Virome Discovery in Florida Citrus Pests

Phytobiomes Journal
The widespread devastation from Huanglongbing, also known as citrus greening, and several damaging insect pests continues to hamper Florida citrus growers and requires environmentally harmful insecticides for adequate control. Repeated applications of these insecticides for sufficient control spurred research interest in insect-specific viruses (ISVs).

Identification of shared viral sequences in peat moss metagenomes reveals elements of a possible Sphagnum core virome

Environmental Microbiome
Background Viruses are an understudied component of plant microbiomes. Identifying viruses that are shared between individual plants, or members of the “core virome”, could reveal stable viral populations with the potential to modulate the composition ...

Comparative metagenomic analyses reveal viral-induced shifts of host metabolism towards nucleotide biosynthesis [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND: Viral genomes often contain metabolic genes that were acquired from host genomes (auxiliary genes). It is assumed that these genes are fixed in viral genomes as a result of a selective force, favoring viruses that acquire specific metabolic ...

Metagenomic approaches to assess bacteriophages in various environmental niches [PDF]

, 2017
Bacteriophages are ubiquitous and numerous parasites of bacteria and play a critical evolutionary role in virtually every ecosystem, yet our understanding of the extent of the diversity and role of phages remains inadequate for many ecological niches ...

Shared and Distinct Features of Human Milk and Infant Stool Viromes. [PDF]

, 2018
Infants acquire many of their microbes from their mothers during the birth process. The acquisition of these microbes is believed to be critical in the development of the infant immune system.

Pan-viral serology implicates enteroviruses in acute flaccid myelitis. [PDF]

, 2019
Since 2012, the United States of America has experienced a biennial spike in pediatric acute flaccid myelitis (AFM)1-6. Epidemiologic evidence suggests non-polio enteroviruses (EVs) are a potential etiology, yet EV RNA is rarely detected in cerebrospinal

The gut virome:the ‘missing link’ between gut bacteria and host immunity? [PDF]

, 2019
The human gut virome includes a diverse collection of viruses that infect our own cells as well as other commensal organisms, directly impacting on our well-being. Despite its predominance, the virome remains one of the least understood components of the
