Qing Zhang, Xiaojie Jiang, Yuan Xi, Xiao Ma, Wen Zhang

TL;DR
This paper reports the discovery of two new DNA viruses in the respiratory tract of forest musk deer in China, highlighting the importance of wildlife virus surveillance.
Contribution
The study identifies two unclassified Cressdnaviricota viruses in forest musk deer, expanding the known viral diversity in wildlife.
Findings
Two circular single-stranded DNA viruses were identified in forest musk deer respiratory samples.
Phylogenetic analysis suggests these viruses belong to unclassified Cressdnaviricota lineages.
The study emphasizes the significance of wildlife virome diversity for conservation and public health.
Abstract
We identified two circular single-stranded DNA viruses from forest musk deer in China through metagenomic analysis. Phylogenetic results suggest they represent unclassified Cressdnaviricota lineages. This study highlights the diversity of the deer’s respiratory virome and underscores the importance of wildlife virus surveillance for conservation and public health.
