Characterisation of the faecal virome of captive and wild Tasmanian devils using virus-like particles metagenomics and meta-transcriptomics

2018-10-15

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> The Tasmanian devil is an endangered carnivorous marsupial threatened by devil facial tumour disease (DFTD). While research on DFTD has been extensive, little is known about the viruses present in devils, and whether any of these are of potential conservation relevance for this endangered species. <h4>Methods</h4> Using both metagenomics based on virus-like particle (VLP) enrichment and seque...
