Recovering new viruses from New Mexico soils
Here, we utilized metagenomic and size-filtered virome sequencing to recover 4,157 medium, high, or complete quality viral genomes from soils taken from three high elevation sites in New Mexico, USA. Among recovered viral genomes, 90% were from size-filtered samples, indicating the importance of this enrichment in assessments of complex viromes.
