Deciphering viral presences: two novel partial giant viruses detected in marine metagenome and in a mine drainage metagenome
Abstract Nucleo-cytoplasmic large DNA viruses are doubled stranded DNA viruses capable of infecting eukaryotic cells. Since the discovery of Mimivirus and Pandoravirus, there has been no doubt about their extraordinary features compared to “classic” viruses. Recently, we reported the expansion of th...
