Abstract excerpt
Mimiviruses have been detected in various habitats. Analyses of single nucleotide substitutions (SNSs) have revealed that SNSs are mainly localized on both ends of the mimivirus genome, and mimivirus lineage A has been split into three genotype groups; therefore, mimiviruses may be classified into lineages and genotype groups based on SNSs. We isolated 9 mimiviruses from Japan and analyzed SNSs. These isolates...
