PEONY: a global reference database of DNA viral (vOTU) sequences from viral size-fractionated metagenomes (viromes)
We present an update to the Phages and Integrated Genomes Encapsidated or Not reference database of DNA viral sequences (viral operational taxonomic units [vOTUs], mostly dsDNA bacteriophages) from global ecosystems. To reflect the inclusion of only virus size-fractionated metagenome- (virome-)derived vOTUs, we reintroduce the database as Phages Encapsidated ONlY.
