#Viruses A 20-year metagenomic time series unveils evolutionary dynamics of giant viruses in a freshwater ecosystem @jgi.doe.gov #metagenomics #microbiology

Vicennial metagenomic time series unveils evolutionary dynamics of giant viruses in a freshwater ecosystem - Nature Communications

The role of giant viruses in freshwater habitats is less well studied. Here, using metagenomes collected over 20 years in Lake Mendota, the authors show that giant virus genomes adapt to environmental change via gene duplication and horizontal gene transfer, revealing genomic stability and increased virus-host interactions.

This photograph shows the entrance to Stordalen Mire, Sweden, near the Abisko Scientific Research Station in the margin of the permafrost zone. As rising temperatures thaw the underlying permafrost, ecological transitions in plant and microbial communities across the landscape are shifting the site from net carbon sink to net carbon source.
