ENVirT: inference of ecological characteristics of viruses from metagenomic data
Abstract Background Estimating the parameters that describe the ecology of viruses,particularly those that are novel, can be made possible using metagenomic approaches. However, the best-performing existing methods require databases to first estimate an average genome length of a viral community bef...
