Virseqimprover: an integrated pipeline for viral contig error correction, extension, and annotation [PDF]
Despite the recent surge of viral metagenomic studies, it remains a significant challenge to recover complete virus genomes from metagenomic data. The majority of viral contigs generated from de novo assembly programs are highly fragmented, presenting ...

Functional Constraint Profiling of a Viral Protein Reveals Discordance of Evolutionary Conservation and Functionality. [PDF]
Viruses often encode proteins with multiple functions due to their compact genomes. Existing approaches to identify functional residues largely rely on sequence conservation analysis.

Error correction and diversity analysis of population mixtures determined by NGS [PDF]
The impetus for this work was the need to analyse nucleotide diversity in a viral mix taken from honeybees; the methods are illustrated using honeybee viral samples. The paper has two findings. First, a method for correction of next generation sequencing

Sequence analysis of the small (s) RNA segment of viruses in the genus Orthobunyavirus [PDF]
Viruses in the genus Orthobunyavirus (family Bunyaviridae) are classified serologically into 18 serogroups. The viruses have a tripartite genome of negative sense RNA composed of large (L), medium (M) and small (S) segments.

Applications of viral metagenomics in the veterinary field [PDF]
Viral metagenomics provide a powerful technology to investigate the viral flora of healthy and sick animals. Using these methodologies, we gain a better understanding in the etiology of diseases, as well as deepen our knowledge into the viruses ...

Tomato marchitez virus, a new plant picorna-like virus from tomato related to tomato torrado virus [PDF]
A new virus was isolated from a tomato plant from the state of Sinaloa in Mexico. This plant showed symptoms locally known as `marchitez disease¿: severe leaf necrosis, beginning at the base of the leaflets, and necrotic rings on the fruits.

The nucleotide sequence and genome organization of
Background Only very few viruses of Oomycetes have been studied in detail. Isometric virions were found in different isolates of the oomycete Plasmopara halstedii, the downy mildew pathogen of sunflower. However, complete nucleotide sequences and data on
