😃Very happy to see this paper expending our knowledge of viral diversity in insects and crustacians 🦐🪰 👀 Watch out for nudiviruses (DNA viruses) in fleas and lice! thanks @JirkaMp @AmyL_Burgess @HerniouE M. Oers & @Jamiebojko for making this happen!
Nudiviruses in free-living and parasitic arthropods: evolutionary taxonomy @TrendsParasitol @JirkaMp @AmyL_Burgess @HerniouE M. Oers delve into the evolutionary history of nudiviruses, uncovering hidden diversity and a complex evolutionary timeline 🦀🦋 authors.elsevier.com/sd/arti…
