Individual bat virome analysis reveals co-infection and spillover among bats and virus zoonotic potential
Abstract Bats are reservoir hosts for many zoonotic viruses. Despite this, relatively little is known about the diversity and abundance of viruses within individual bats, and hence the frequency of virus co-infection and spillover among them. We characterize the mammal-associated viruses in 149 indi...
