Diversity of dsDNA Viruses in a South African Hot Spring Assessed by Metagenomics and Microscopy.

Viruses - 18 Nov 2017

Zablocki Olivier, van Zyl Leonardo Joaquim, Kirby Bronwyn, Trindade Marla

Abstract excerpt

The current view of virus diversity in terrestrial hot springs is limited to a few sampling sites. To expand our current understanding of hot spring viral community diversity, this study aimed to investigate the first African hot spring (Brandvlei hot spring; 60 °C, pH 5.7) by means of electron microscopy and sequencing of the virus fraction. Microscopy analysis revealed a mixture of regular- and 'jumbo'-sized...
