A Review on Viral Metagenomics in Extreme Environments [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019 Viruses are the most abundant biological entities in the biosphere, and have the ability to infect Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukaryotes. The virome is estimated to be at least ten times more abundant than the microbiome with 107 viruses per milliliter and 109 viral particles per gram in marine waters and sediments or soils, respectively. Viruses represent

Characterizing Enterotypes in Human Metagenomics: A Viral Perspective [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 The diversity and high genomic mutation rates of viral species hinder our understanding of viruses and their contributions to human health. Viral enterotypes as a description of the gut virome, its characteristics have not been thoroughly studied. Here we investigated the human gut virome composition using previously published sequencing data of 2,690 ...

454-Pyrosequencing: A Molecular Battiscope for Freshwater Viral Ecology [PDF]
, 2010 Viruses, the most abundant biological entities on the planet, are capable of infecting organisms from all three branches of life, although the majority infect bacteria where the greatest degree of cellular diversity lies.

Deciphering the Human Virome with Single-Virus Genomics and Metagenomics
Viruses, 2018 Single-cell genomics has unveiled the metabolic potential of dominant microbes inhabiting different environments, including the human body. The lack of genomic information for predominant microbes of the human body, such as bacteriophages, hinders our ...
