Women in the European Virus Bioinformatics Center

open access: yesViruses, 2022
Viruses are the cause of a considerable burden to human, animal and plant health, while on the other hand playing an important role in regulating entire ecosystems. The power of new sequencing technologies combined with new tools for processing “Big Data”

Variability in P1 gene redefines phylogenetic relationships among cassava brown streak viruses

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2017
Background Cassava brown streak disease is emerging as the most important viral disease of cassava in Africa, and is consequently a threat to food security.

Natural Populations from the Phytophthora palustris Complex Show a High Diversity and Abundance of ssRNA and dsRNA Viruses

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2022
We explored the virome of the “Phytophthora palustris complex”, a group of aquatic specialists geographically limited to Southeast and East Asia, the native origin of many destructive invasive forest Phytophthora spp. Based on high-throughput sequencing (

Comparison of SARS-CoV-2 Evolution in Paediatric Primary Airway Epithelial Cell Cultures Compared with Vero-Derived Cell Lines

open access: yesViruses, 2022
SARS-CoV-2 can efficiently infect both children and adults, albeit with morbidity and mortality positively associated with increasing host age and presence of co-morbidities.

Dating the Emergence of Human Endemic Coronaviruses

open access: yesViruses, 2022
Four endemic coronaviruses infect humans and cause mild symptoms. Because previous analyses were based on a limited number of sequences and did not control for effects that affect molecular dating, we re-assessed the timing of endemic coronavirus ...

Recombination and Positive Selection Differentially Shaped the Diversity of Betacoronavirus Subgenera

open access: yesViruses, 2020
The Betacoronavirus genus of mammal-infecting viruses includes three subgenera (Sarbecovirus, Embecovirus, and Merbecovirus), in which most known human coronaviruses, including SARS-CoV-2, cluster.

A virus responds instantly to the presence of the vector on the host and forms transmission morphs

open access: yeseLife, 2013
Many plant and animal viruses are spread by insect vectors. Cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) is aphid-transmitted, with the virus being taken up from specialized transmission bodies (TB) formed within infected plant cells.

Unveiling Crucivirus Diversity by Mining Metagenomic Data

open access: yesmBio, 2020
The discovery of cruciviruses revealed the most explicit example of a common protein homologue between DNA and RNA viruses to date. Cruciviruses are a novel group of circular Rep-encoding single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) (CRESS-DNA) viruses that encode capsid

Immunoinformatic Analysis Reveals Antigenic Heterogeneity of Epstein-Barr Virus Is Immune-Driven

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Whole genome sequencing of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) isolates from around the world has uncovered pervasive strain heterogeneity, but the forces driving strain diversification and the impact on immune recognition remained largely unknown.
