Evolutionary history of ssDNA bacilladnaviruses features horizontal acquisition of the capsid gene from ssRNA nodaviruses
Abstract
Bacilladnaviruses have single-stranded (ss) DNA genomes and infect diatoms, a major group of unicellular algae widespread in aquatic habitats. Despite their ecological importance, the provenance and relationships of bacilladnaviruses to other eukaryotic viruses remain unclear. Accordingly, they are currently classified into the ‘floating’ genus Bacilladnavirus. Here we present three new bacilladnavirus genomes recovered from a mollusc Amphibola...
