Data mining of global sequence datasets markedly expands known diversity within the Tobamovirus genus

Neža Pajek Arambašič, Katarina Bačnik, Luka Kranjc…·Denis Kutnjak

Serratus-guided Snakemake mining, expert curation, clustering and phylogenetic placement identify at least 32 putative novel tobamoviruses in public short-read data, mostly Amazon River metatranscriptomes; a random-forest classifier partly automates curation.
