Archaeal viruses: living fossils of the ancient virosphere?

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences - 1 Apr 2015

Prangishvili David

Abstract excerpt

Studies on viruses parasitizing archaea reveal their specific nature and complete the tripartite division of the biosphere, indicating that each of the three domains of life-Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya-has its own set of associated DNA viruses. I argue that the remarkable morphotypical diversity of archaea-specific viruses could have originated from diverse viral archetypes that predated the divergence of the...
