Tian F, Wainaina J, Howard-Varona C, Dominguez-Huerta G, Bolduc B, Gazitua M, et al.
Microbiome . 2024 Aug; 12(1):159. PMID: 39198891
Background: Prokaryotic microbes have impacted marine biogeochemical cycles for billions of years. Viruses also impact these cycles, through lysis, horizontal gene transfer, and encoding and expressing genes that contribute to...

Sun C, Pratama A, Gazitua M, Cronin D, McGivern B, Wainaina J, et al.
Environ Microbiol . 2024 Aug; 26(8):e16665. PMID: 39101434
Soil microorganisms are pivotal in the global carbon cycle, but the viruses that affect them and their impact on ecosystems are less understood. In this study, we explored the diversity,...
3.
Vik D, Bolduc B, Roux S, Sun C, Pratama A, Krupovic M, et al.
ISME Commun . 2023 Aug; 3(1):87. PMID: 37620369
Our knowledge of viral sequence space has exploded with advancing sequencing technologies and large-scale sampling and analytical efforts. Though archaea are important and abundant prokaryotes in many systems, our knowledge...

Bolduc B, Zablocki O, Guo J, Zayed A, Vik D, Dehal P, et al.
ISME Commun . 2023 Feb; 1(1):77. PMID: 36765102
Microbes drive myriad ecosystem processes, but under strong influence from viruses. Because studying viruses in complex systems requires different tools than those for microbes, they remain underexplored. To combat this,...

Dominguez-Huerta G, Zayed A, Wainaina J, Guo J, Tian F, Pratama A, et al.
Science . 2022 Jun; 376(6598):1202-1208. PMID: 35679415
DNA viruses are increasingly recognized as influencing marine microbes and microbe-mediated biogeochemical cycling. However, little is known about global marine RNA virus diversity, ecology, and ecosystem roles. In this study,...

Zayed A, Wainaina J, Dominguez-Huerta G, Pelletier E, Guo J, Mohssen M, et al.
Science . 2022 Apr; 376(6589):156-162. PMID: 35389782
Whereas DNA viruses are known to be abundant, diverse, and commonly key ecosystem players, RNA viruses are insufficiently studied outside disease settings. In this study, we analyzed ≈28 terabases of...

Gregory A, Gerhardt K, Zhong Z, Bolduc B, Temperton B, Konstantinidis K, et al.
Microbiome . 2022 Mar; 10(1):49. PMID: 35287721
Background: Microbes and their viruses are hidden engines driving Earth's ecosystems from the oceans and soils to humans and bioreactors. Though gene marker approaches can now be complemented by genome-resolved...

Pratama A, Bolduc B, Zayed A, Zhong Z, Guo J, Vik D, et al.
PeerJ . 2021 Jun; 9:e11447. PMID: 34178438
Background: Viruses influence global patterns of microbial diversity and nutrient cycles. Though viral metagenomics (viromics), specifically targeting dsDNA viruses, has been critical for revealing viral roles across diverse ecosystems, its...

Tisza M, Belford A, Dominguez-Huerta G, Bolduc B, Buck C
Virus Evol . 2021 Jan; 7(1):veaa100. PMID: 33505708
Viruses, despite their great abundance and significance in biological systems, remain largely mysterious. Indeed, the vast majority of the perhaps hundreds of millions of viral species on the planet remain...

Gazitua M, Vik D, Roux S, Gregory A, Bolduc B, Widner B, et al.
ISME J . 2020 Nov; 15(4):981-998. PMID: 33199808
Viruses play an important role in the ecology and biogeochemistry of marine ecosystems. Beyond mortality and gene transfer, viruses can reprogram microbial metabolism during infection by expressing auxiliary metabolic genes...
