Unveiling the biodiversity of large DNA viruses in intertidal mudflats via metagenomics.

Nature communications - 24 Mar 2026

Abstract excerpt

Large DNA viruses (LDVs) are unique members of the Earth's virosphere, remarkable for their extra-large genome sizes and broad metabolic potential. However, our knowledge of this viral group remains very limited, particularly in complex dynamic habitats. In this study, 237 metagenome-assembled LDV genomes are comprehensively recovered from intertidal mudflats using multiple sampling and sequencing strategies...
