Impact of Virus‐Mediated Modifications in Bacterial Communities on the Accumulation of Soil Organic Carbon

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 30, August 14, 2025.
This study illustrates the impact of viruses on carbon cycling in soils with different availabilities of carbon. In conditions of low carbon availability, viruses adopt a lysogenic lifestyle, integrate into the host genomes and facilitate the degradation of carbon.

Broadly neutralizing human immunodeficiency virus type 1 antibody gene transfer protects nonhuman primates from mucosal simian-human immunodeficiency virus infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs) can prevent lentiviral infection in nonhuman primates and may slow the spread of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). Although protection by passive transfer of human bnAbs has been demonstrated in monkeys,

In-depth study of tomato and weed viromes reveals undiscovered plant virus diversity in an agroecosystem

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2023
Background In agroecosystems, viruses are well known to influence crop health and some cause phytosanitary and economic problems, but their diversity in non-crop plants and role outside the disease perspective is less known. Extensive virome explorations

The oral microbiome – an update for oral healthcare professionals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
For millions of years, our resident microbes have coevolved and coexisted with us in a mostly harmonious symbiotic relationship. We are not distinct entities from our microbiome, but together we form a 'superorganism' or holobiont, with the microbiome ...

Beneficial microorganisms: Regulating growth and defense for plant welfare

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 3, Page 986-998, March 2025.
Summary Beneficial microorganisms (BMs) promote plant growth and enhance stress resistance. This review summarizes how BMs induce growth promotion by improving nutrient uptake, producing growth‐promoting hormones and stimulating root development. How BMs enhance disease resistance and help protect plants from abiotic stresses has also been explored ...

Beyond cells – The virome in the human holobiont

open access: yesMicrobial Cell, 2019
Viromics, or viral metagenomics, is a relatively new and burgeoning field of research that studies the complete collection of viruses forming part of the microbiota in any given niche.

The porcine virome and xenotransplantation [PDF]

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2017
The composition of the porcine virome includes viruses that infect pig cells, ancient virus-derived elements including endogenous retroviruses inserted in the pig chromosomes, and bacteriophages that infect a broad array of bacteria that inhabit pigs. Viruses infecting pigs, among them viruses also infecting human cells, as well as porcine endogenous ...

Insights Into Phylogeny, Diversity and Functional Potential of Poseidoniales Viruses

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 1, January 2025.
Our spatio‐temporal metagenomic study of a subtropical estuary successfully identified viruses and their potential hosts. Viral contigs were detected using a consensus approach comprising geNOMAD and VirSorter2. Through virus‐host predictions, we were able to identify, characterise and propose magroviruses and non‐magroviruses associated with ...
