We found that the majority of viruses in this lake belonged to the family of Siphouiridae or were untailed, with capsid sizes ranging from 30 to 60 nm, and exhibited genome sizes ranging from 15 to 45 kb. On average, 12 different genotypes dominated each of the PFGE fingerprints. The highest genomic viral richness was recorded in summer (mean = 14 bands per PFGE fingerprint) and in the epilimnion (mean = 13 bands per PFGE fingerprint). Among the physico-chemical and biological variables considered, the availability of the hosts appeared to be the main factor regulating the variations in the viral diversity.展开更多

Along with various high-throughput genome sequencing projects, rice genomics has been making great headway toward direct ?eld applications of basic research advances in understanding the molecular mechanisms of agronomical traits and utilizing diverse germplasm resources.
