“…The automated VirusDetect package has already been used to identify viruses in grapevine, soybean, sweet potato, cherry tree, and lettuce [ 49 , 50 , 51 , 52 ]. Also, the highest number of viruses was detected in contigs assembled with k-mer = 15 in Velvet, which is consistent with previous studies [ 53 , 54 ]. Therefore, when more than one assembler or k-mer was used, the chance of identifying viruses with low concentrations or those that do not have many reads in the library increased [ 55 ].…”
