Drivers of Viral Diversity and Sharing in Marine Mammals. [PDF]
Mol EcolABSTRACT Knowledge of viral infection in marine mammals, a group severely threatened by human activity, is largely limited to the pathology and epidemiology of few endemic viruses. The recent emergence in marine mammals of high‐consequence viruses, such as H5N1 avian influenza and rabies, underscores the importance of understanding ...

Non-random patterns in viral diversity [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2015 AbstractIt is currently unclear whether changes in viral communities will ever be predictable. Here we investigate whether viral communities in wildlife are inherently structured (inferring predictability) by looking at whether communities are assembled through deterministic (often predictable) or stochastic (not predictable) processes.

The diversity of endogenous viral elements in insects
Current Opinion in Insect Science, 2022 We provide an overview of the currently known diversity of viral sequences integrated into insect genomes. Such endogenous viral elements (EVE) have so far been annotated in at least eight insect orders and can be assigned to at least three families of large double-stranded (ds) DNA viruses, at least 22 families of RNA viruses, and three families of ...

Special Issue: “Viral Genetic Diversity”
Viruses, 2022 Some say that small is beautiful, and if beauty could be measured by levels of diversity and complexity, we could definitely say that viruses are beautiful [...]

RNA Viruses in Aquatic Ecosystems through the Lens of Ecological Genomics and Transcriptomics
Viruses, 2022 Massive amounts of data from nucleic acid sequencing have changed our perspective about diversity and dynamics of marine viral communities. Here, we summarize recent metatranscriptomic and metaviromic studies targeting predominantly RNA viral communities.

Immunology and Allergy Clinics of North America, 2010 Asthma exacerbations are precipitated primarily by respiratory virus infection and frequently require immediate medical intervention. Studies of childhood and adult asthma have implicated a wide variety of respiratory viruses in exacerbations. By focusing on both RNA and DNA respiratory viruses and some newly identified viruses, this review illustrates

Viral sensors: diversity in pathogen recognition [PDF]
Immunological Reviews, 2008 Summary: Innate sensors of viral infection detect viral products and initiate the signal cascades that lead to the antiviral response. Several proteins have been identified to play a role in this process, mostly members of the Toll‐like receptor and retinoic acid‐inducible gene I‐like receptor families.

Microbiome, 2019 Background Mosquitoes are the most important invertebrate viral vectors in humans and harbor a high diversity of understudied viruses, which has been shown in many mosquito virome studies in recent years.

Viral Metagenomic Analysis of the Fecal Samples in Domestic Dogs (Canis lupus familiaris)
Viruses, 2023 Canine diarrhea is a common intestinal illness that is usually caused by viruses, bacteria, and parasites, and canine diarrhea may induce morbidity and mortality of domestic dogs if treated improperly.
