| Method |
"To investigate the origin and nature of human viral populations,
[researchers] carried out a detailed study of a single human gut viral community. Ultra-deep longitudinal analysis of DNA sequences from
the viral community, combined with characterization of the host bacteria, revealed rapid change over time and begins to specify some of the mechanisms involved." |
| Comments |
"[Researchers] report a study of longitudinal variation in the human
gut virome and some of the mechanisms responsible for change
over time. Loss and acquisition of viral types was uncommon:
Fully ~80% of viral forms persisted over the 2.5-y time course
studied, as is consistent with previous studies of shorter duration
(primary sources)." |
