Gyrovirus (GyV) is small, single-stranded circular DNA viruses that has recently been
assigned to the family Anelloviridae. In the last decade, many GyVs that have an apparent …

G-quadruplexes contribute to the regulation of key molecular processes. Their utilization for
antiviral therapy is an emerging field of contemporary research. Here we present …

Birds, notably wild ducks, are reservoirs of pathogenic and zoonotic viruses such as
influenza viruses and coronaviruses. In the current study, we used metagenomics to detect …

Viral infection is a major cause of ill health in wild chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes), but most
evidence to date has come from conspicuous disease outbreaks with high morbidity and …

Sequence-independent amplification techniques have become important tools for virus
discovery, metagenomics, and exploration of viral diversity at the global scale, especially in …

For energetically limited organisms, life‐history theory predicts trade‐offs between
reproductive effort and somatic maintenance. This is especially true of female mammals, for …

Yellow-eyed penguins (Megadyptes antipodes), or hoiho in te reo Māori, are predicted to
become extinct on mainland Aotearoa New Zealand in the next few decades, with infectious …

In humans, senescence increases susceptibility to viral infection. However, comparative
data on viral infection in free-living non-human primates—even in our closest living relatives …

Chicken anemia virus (CAV) and Gyrovirus homsa 1 (GyH1) are members of the Gyrovirus
genus. The two viruses cause similar clinical manifestations in chickens, aplastic anemia …

Abstract Background Gyrovirus homsa1 (GyH1)(also known as Gyrovirus 3, GyV3) is a non-
enveloped, small, single-stranded DNA virus, which was first identified in children with acute …
