Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Based on a global scale eukaryotic metatranscriptomic data, we revealed that giant viruses actively infect their hosts everywhere at every depth examined. Newly designed PCR primers were used to reveal the existence of over 6,000 genotypes for giant viruses (Megaviridae) in a single water sample collected at Osaka Bay. Developed bioinformatics tools are made publicly accessible through internet (http://www.genome.jp/viptree/, http://www.genome.jp/virushostdb/).
