“…The Shelduck parvovirus described here is of particular interest as it is a member of the genus Chapparvovirus. Metagenomic analyses have recently identified members of this genus in a large number of vertebrates [55], and are known agents of severe disease [56].…”

Virome heterogeneity and connectivity in waterfowl and shorebird communities

et al. 2019

Models of host-microbe dynamics typically assume a single-host population infected by a single pathogen. In reality, many hosts form multi-species aggregations and may be infected with an assemblage of pathogens. We used a meta-transcriptomic approach to characterize the viromes of nine avian species in the Anseriformes (ducks) and Charadriiformes (shorebirds). This revealed the presence of 27 viral species, of which 24 were novel, including double-stranded RNA viruses (Picobirnaviridae and Reoviridae), single-stranded RNA viruses (Astroviridae, Caliciviridae, Picornaviridae), a retro-transcribing DNA virus (Hepadnaviridae), and a single-stranded DNA virus (Parvoviridae). These viruses comprise multi-host generalist viruses and those that are host-specific, indicative of both virome connectivity (host sharing) and heterogeneity (host specificity). Virome connectivity was apparent in two well described multi-host virus species -avian coronavirus and influenza A virus- and a novel Rotavirus species that were shared among some Anseriform species, while virome heterogeneity was reflected in the absence of viruses shared between Anseriformes and Charadriiformes, as well as differences in viral abundance and alpha diversity among species. Overall, we demonstrate complex virome structures across host species that co-exist in multi-species aggregations.

“…Papillomaviruses (PVs), which are also dsDNA viruses, have also been reported in diverse bats species [17][18][19], but so far, they have not been reported in bats in Brazil. Parvoviruses, a family of single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) viruses that exhibits the highest mutation rate among DNA viruses [9] have been reported worldwide, including in Brazil [20] and have been shown to be related to human-infecting parvoviruses [21][22][23].…”

“…In Brazil, adenoviruses, anelloviruses, circoviruses, coronaviruses, polyomaviruses, parvoviruses and rhabdoviruses have already been detected in different bat species [16,20,[27][28][29][30]. However, previous studies were performed using traditional genome amplification methods.…”

Detection of adenovirus, papillomavirus and parvovirus in Brazilian bats of the species Artibeus lituratus and Sturnira lilium

et al. 2019

Bats play a significant role in maintaining their ecosystems through pollination, dispersal of seeds, and control of insect populations, but they are also known to host many microorganisms and have been described as natural reservoirs for viruses with zoonotic potential. The diversity of viruses in these animals remains largely unknown, however, because studies are limited by species, location, virus target, or sample type. Therefore, the aim of this study was to detect fragments of viral genomes in bat samples. We performed high-throughput sequencing analysis and specific PCR and RT-PCR on pools of anal and oropharyngeal swabs from Artibeus lituratus and Sturnira lilium collected in southern Brazil. As a result, a member of the family Adenoviridae related to human adenovirus C was detected in anal swabs from S. lilium. In addition, we detected a papillomavirus in an anal swab from A. lituratus. Our analyses also allowed the detection of adenoviruses and parvoviruses in oropharyngeal swabs collected from A. lituratus. These results increase our knowledge about viral diversity and illustrate the importance of conducting virus surveillance in bats.

“…Sequences with highest similarity to Desmodus rotundus parvovirus strain DRA25 (, Parvoviridae ) were used in de novo assembly, resulting in chapparvovirus 2014‐ON_consensus. This consensus sequence was not closely related to the Desmodus rotundus parvovirus strain DRA25 genome or three other parvoviruses with similar structure (, , and ) (Figure d) (De Souza et al., ). Sequences with highest similarity to gyrovirus Tu243 (, Circoviridae ) had segments with 100% identity to gyrovirus Tu243 VP1 and VP2 genes, as well as 63% identity to the VP1 gene of gyrovirus 4.…”

Prevalence of fecal viruses and bacteriophage in Canadian farmed mink (Neovison vison)

et al. 2018

Recent viral metagenomic studies have demonstrated the diversity of eukaryotic viruses and bacteriophage shed in the feces of domestic species. Although enteric disease is a major concern in the commercial mink farming industry, few etiologic agents have been well characterized. This study aimed to identify viruses shed in the fecal matter of clinically healthy commercial mink from 40 southern Ontario farms. Viral RNA was extracted from 67 pooled fecal samples (30 adult female mink and 37 kit) and amplified for Illumina sequencing on the NextSeq platform, and the resulting contigs were trimmed and assembled using Trimmomatic 0.36.0 and Spades 3.8.0 in iVirus (CyVerse, AZ, USA) and SeqMan NGen 12 (DNAStar, WI, USA). Identification of assembled sequences >100 bp (Geneious 10.1.3) showed an abundance of bacteriophage sequences, mainly from families Siphoviridae (53%), Podoviridae (22%), Myoviridae (20%), Inoviridae (1%), Leviviridae (0.04%), Tectiviridae (0.01%), and Microviridae (0.01%). A diverse range of vertebrate viruses were detected, of which posavirus 3, mink bocavirus, gyroviruses, and avian-associated viruses were most abundant. Additionally, sequences from nonvertebrate viruses with water and soil-associated amebal and algal hosts were also highly prevalent. The results of this study show that viruses shed in the fecal matter of healthy commercial mink are highly diverse and could be closely associated with diet, and that more research is necessary to determine how the detected viruses may impact mink health.
