Novel virus discovery and genome reconstruction from field RNA samples reveals highly divergent viruses in dipteran hosts.

Novel virus discovery and genome reconstruction from field RNA samples reveals highly divergent viruses in dipteran hosts.

We investigated whether small RNA (sRNA) sequenced from field-collected mosquitoes and chironomids (Diptera) can be used as a proxy signature of viral prevalence within a range of species and viral groups, using sRNAs sequenced from wild-caught specimens, to inform total RNA deep sequencing of sampl...
