Background Current estimates suggest that even in the most resourced settings, the
aetiology of encephalitis is identified in less than half of clinical cases. It is acknowledged …

While single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) was once thought to be a relatively rare genomic
architecture for viruses, modern metagenomics sequencing has revealed circular ssDNA …

The family Circoviridae contains viruses with covalently closed, circular, single-stranded
DNA (ssDNA) genomes, including the smallest known autonomously replicating, capsid …

Circovirids have a circular single-stranded DNA genome packed into a small icosahedral
capsid. They are classified within two genera, Circovirus and Cyclovirus, in the family …

Mycoviruses are usually transmitted horizontally via hyphal anastomosis and vertically via
sexual/asexual spores. Previously, we reported that a gemycircularvirus, Sclerotinia …

Here, we introduce a new family of eukaryote-infecting single-stranded (ss) DNA viruses that
was created recently by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV). The …

Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV-3) is a recently described virus belonging to the family
Circoviridae. It represents the third member of genus Circovirus able to infect swine, together …

Abstract Background The giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) is a vulnerable mammal
herbivore living wild in central China. Viral infections have become a potential threat to the …

Abstract The family Genomoviridae (phylum Cressdnaviricota, class Repensiviricetes, order
Geplafuvirales) includes viruses with circular single-stranded DNA genomes encoding two …

With the advent of metagenomics approaches, a large diversity of known and unknown
viruses has been identified in various types of environmental, plant, and animal samples …
