#VirID: Beyond Virus #Discovery - An Integrated #Platform for Comprehensive #RNA #Virus Characterization, BioRxIV: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2024.07.05.602175v2

We developed VirID, a #software tool specifically designed for discovery & characterization of RNA viruses from #metagenomic data. Basis of VirID is a comprehensive RNA-dependent RNA #polymerase (RdRP) database to enhance a workflow that includes RNA virus discovery, phylogenetic analysis, and phylogeny-based virus characterization.

I'm looking forward to the @nf_core hackathon and #Nextflow Summit in Barcelona in October!

Is anyone here on Mastodon coming as well (or joining remotely)?

I'll be giving a talk during the summit giving an overview of the #metagenomic and #MicrobialEcology pipeline 'offerings' of #nfcore :)

#VIRAL #METAGENOMIC #SURVEY OF #CASPIAN #SEALS, BioRxIV: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2024.07.14.603418v1

Sequencing libraries from 35 seals sampled 2009-2020 were analysed, finding sequences from viral families #Picornaviridae, #Adenoviridae, #Circoviridae, #Herpesviridae, #Papillomaviridae, #Caliciviridae, #Orthomyxoviridae, #Anelloviridae, #Smacoviridae, #Cruciviridae & #Parvoviridae... Among seq. recovered were partial contigs for #influenza B, representing only 2nd molecular identification in marine mammals.

The #fungi fanatics at #Hackuarium are back. And this time joining forces with the #honeybees lovers and those who are all about a good #metagenomic analysis with some sequencing action.

The #MycelialBiodiversity4Bees project needs your help 💰🤑 https://experiment.com/projects/participatory-research-to-explore-fungal-biodiversity-and-its-importance-to-bees
