Viral Metagenomics on Cerebrospinal Fluid [PDF]
Identifying the causative pathogen in central nervous system (CNS) infections is crucial for patient management and prognosis. Many viruses can cause CNS infections, yet screening for each individually is costly and time-consuming. Most metagenomic assays can theoretically detect all pathogens, but often fail to detect viruses because of their small ...

Exploring the viral world through metagenomics [PDF]
Viral metagenomics, or shotgun sequencing of purified viral particles, has revolutionized the field of environmental virology by allowing the exploration of viral communities in a variety of sample types throughout the biosphere. The introduction of viral metagenomics has demonstrated that dominant viruses in environmental communities are not well ...

Viral Metagenomics: MetaView Software [PDF]
The purpose of this report is to design and develop a tool for analysis of raw sequence read data from viral metagenomics experiments. The tool should compare read sequences of known viral nucleic acid sequence data and enable a user to attempt to determine, with some degree of confidence, what virus groups may be present in the sample.

[Pathology and viral metagenomics, a recent history]. [PDF]
L’étude des maladies virales humaines, animales et végétales a récemment bénéficié du développement de la métagénomique en écologie. Cette approche, dite sans a priori, consiste à décrire le génome viral total, ou virome, d’une fraction d’un écosystème sans tenir compte de cibles moléculaires déjà connues.

Exploring viral diversity in fermented vegetables through viral metagenomics [PDF]
Fermented vegetables are traditionally produced using the endogenous microorganisms present in raw ingredients. While the diversity of bacteria and fungi in fermented vegetables has been relatively well studied, phage communities remain largely unexplored.

Utilizing Viral Metagenomics to Characterize Pathogenic and Commensal Viruses in Pediatric Patients with Febrile Neutropenia. [PDF]
Febrile neutropenia (FN) is one of the most common complications in pediatric oncology patients. It has a complex etiologic nature, which in the majority of cases remains unclear.

Integrating Viral Metagenomics into an Ecological Framework [PDF]
Viral metagenomics has expanded our knowledge of the ecology of uncultured viruses, within both environmental (e.g., terrestrial and aquatic) and host-associated (e.g., plants and animals, including humans) contexts. Here, we emphasize the implementation of an ecological framework in viral metagenomic studies to address questions in virology rarely ...

Gut viral metagenomics identifies viral signatures and their role in depression. [PDF]
BackgroundThe gut microbiome has been implicated in the onset and progression of depression. Yet, the role of the gut virome in depression remains unexplored, and a diagnostic model has not been satisfactorily constructed.MethodsHerein, we analysed the gut virome profiles of 29 patients with depression and 33 healthy controls using bulk metagenome ...

Challenges in the analysis of viral metagenomes [PDF]
Genome sequencing technologies continue to develop with remarkable pace, yet analytical approaches for reconstructing and classifying viral genomes from mixed samples remain limited in their performance and usability. Existing solutions generally target expert users and often have unclear scope, making it challenging to critically evaluate their ...
