TL;DR
This study identifies and characterizes five new viruses found in two species of mosquitoes from Réunion Island.
Contribution
The discovery of a protoambidensovirus in Aedes albopictus expands its known host range.
Findings
Five complete coding sequences of viruses were identified in mosquitoes from Réunion Island.
A protoambidensovirus was found in Aedes albopictus, belonging to a clade previously seen only in Culex pipiens.
Three microviruses were detected, adding to the known viral diversity in mosquitoes.
Abstract
We report the complete CDS of five viruses: XiangYun picorna-like virus 4 (Iflaviridae), Protoambidensovirus dipteran1 (Parvoviridae), and three microviruses (Microviridae), detected by viromics surveillance of Aedes albopictus and Culex quinquefasciatus from Réunion Island. The protoambidensovirus detected in A. albopictus belongs to a clade previously reported only in Culex pipiens.
