Mirusviruses link herpesviruses to giant viruses

DNA viruses have a major influence on the ecology and evolution of cellular organisms 1 – 4 , but their overall diversity and evolutionary trajectories remain elusive 5 . Here we carried out a phylogeny-guided genome-resolved metagenomic survey of the sunlit oceans and discovered plankton-infecting...
