Diversity and Epidemiology of Mokola Virus
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2013 Mokola virus (MOKV) appears to be exclusive to Africa. Although the first isolates were from Nigeria and other Congo basin countries, all reports over the past 20 years have been from southern Africa. Previous phylogenetic studies analyzed few isolates or used partial gene sequence for analysis since limited sequence information is available for MOKV ...

Virus-derived variation in diverse human genomes [PDF]
PLOS Genetics, 2020 AbstractAcquisition of genetic material from viruses by their hosts can generate inter-host structural genome variation. We developed computational tools enabling us to study virus-derived structural variants (SVs) in population-scale whole genome sequencing (WGS) datasets and applied them to 3,332 humans.

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022 Alternaria dianthicola is a pathogenic fungus that causes serious leaf or flower blight on some medicinal plants worldwide. In this study, multiple dsRNA bands in the range of 1.2-10 kbp were found in a Alternaria dianthus strain HNSZ-1, and eleven full ...

Lassa virus diversity and feasibility for universal prophylactic vaccine
F1000Research, 2019 Lassa virus (LASV) is a highly prevalent mammarenavirus in West Africa and is maintained in nature in a persistently infected rodent host, Mastomys natalensis, which is widely spread in sub-Saharan Africa.

RNAseq Analysis Reveals Virus Diversity within Hawaiian Apiary Insect Communities
Viruses, 2019 Deformed wing virus (DWV) is the most abundant viral pathogen of honey bees and has been associated with large-scale colony losses. DWV and other bee-associated RNA viruses are generalists capable of infecting diverse hosts. Here, we used RNAseq analysis

Quantifying influenza virus diversity and transmission in humans
Nature Genetics, 2016 Influenza A virus is characterized by high genetic diversity. However, most of what is known about influenza evolution has come from consensus sequences sampled at the epidemiological scale that only represent the dominant virus lineage within each ...

HIV vaccines: mosaic approach to virus diversity [PDF]
Nature Medicine, 2010 The extraordinary diversity of HIV is a major barrier in the path of developing a vaccine. One way forward may be mosaic antigens—biometrically designed genes that maximize overlap between sequences used in the vaccine and circulating HIV-1 strains worldwide (pages 319–323 and 324–328).
