Diverse Microvirus Genomes Identified in the Stomach of a Sharp-Spined Notothen (Trematomus pennellii) from the Ross Sea (East Antarctica)

Sharp-spined notothen ( Trematomus pennellii ) is an icefish endemic to the southern ocean. From the stomach of an individual, we identified the genomes of 51 microviruses (family Microviridae ). The major capsid proteins of most of these share the closest similarities to those identified in other m...

Description
Summary:Sharp-spined notothen ( Trematomus pennellii ) is an icefish endemic to the southern ocean. From the stomach of an individual, we identified the genomes of 51 microviruses (family Microviridae ). The major capsid proteins of most of these share the closest similarities to those identified in other marine organisms.
