Eukaryotic circular rep-encoding single-stranded DNA (CRESS DNA) viruses: ubiquitous viruses with small genomes and a diverse host range
While single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) was once thought to be a relatively rare genomic
architecture for viruses, modern metagenomics sequencing has revealed circular ssDNA …

Ecology and evolution of viruses infecting uncultivated SUP05 bacteria as revealed by single-cell-and meta-genomics
Viruses modulate microbial communities and alter ecosystem functions. However, due to
cultivation bottlenecks, specific virus–host interaction dynamics remain cryptic. In this study …
