The first head‐tailed virus, MFTV1 , infecting hyperthermophilic methanogenic deep‐sea archaea
6 Oct 2020
Abstract excerpt
Deep-sea hydrothermal vents are inhabited by complex communities of microbes and their viruses. Despite the importance of viruses in controlling the diversity, adaptation and evolution of their microbial hosts, to date, only eight bacterial and two archaeal viruses isolated from abyssal ecosystems have been described. Thus, our efforts focused on gaining new insights into viruses associated with deep-sea...
