The food–gut axis: the phyllosphere virome of fresh vegetables is diverse, abundant, and transmitted to the human gut virome

2024-09-10

Abstract excerpt

Fresh vegetables harbor diverse microorganisms on leaf surfaces, yet their viral communities remain unexplored. We investigated the diversity and ecology of phyllosphere viromes of six leafy green vegetables using virus-like particle (VLP) enrichment and shotgun metagenome sequencing. On average, 9.2 × 10 7 viruses were present per gram of leaf tissue. The majority (93.1 ± 6.2%) of these viruses were taxonomicall...
