An iridovirus from the Antarctic seaspider Pentanymphon antarcticum (Pycnogonida)
ANTARCTIC SCIENCE(2024)
摘要
The Antarctic seaspider Pentanymphon antarcticum is a benthic species in the Southern Ocean, but little is known about its pathogen profile. In this study, we provide a draft genome for a new iridovirus species that has been identified using metagenomic techniques. The draft genome totals 157 260 bp and encodes 188 protein-coding genes. The virus shows greatest protein similarity to a 'carnivorous sponge-associated iridovirus' from a deep-sea sponge host. This study represents the first discovery of a pycnogonid iridovirus and the first iridovirus from the Antarctic region.
