| Summary: | Trabajo presentado en el VIII International Veterinary Congress: >One world - one health>, celebrado en Moscú (Rusia), del 23 al 25 de abril de 2018 Viruses are an integral part of the ecosystem and exist anywhere life is present. In total there are now 1031 viral particles on the planet. Viruses are highly abundant in the sea waters exceeding a million particles per milliliter, and in the human gut there may be 1,200 distinct viruses. The number of viral particles per milliliter ranged from 60,000 deep beneath Barents sea to 254 million from the surface waters of Germany’s lake Plussee. Mathematical models with some experimental support suggest that there are more than 300,000 new viruses that remain to be discovered.
